Problem with Sockets in Boost ASIO

mcleano (922)
I keep on having problems with connecting to sockets. I had the same problem when I was using winsock and then decided I wanted to move to a portable networking library and start fresh. This is the code I have:

Arguments Class

class Arguments {
	std::string host;
	std::string port;

public:
	Arguments(char *ptrHost, char *ptrPort) : host(ptrHost), port(ptrPort) {};
	Arguments(char *ptrPort) : port(ptrPort) {};

	std::string getHost() const {
		return host;
	}
	std::string getPort() const {
		return port;
	}
};

try {
	Arguments *client = new Arguments(argv[2], argv[3]);
	using boost::asio::ip::tcp;
	
	boost::asio::io_service io_service;
	tcp::resolver resolve(io_service);
	tcp::resolver::query query(tcp::v4(), client->getHost(), client->getPort());
	tcp::resolver::iterator iterator = resolve.resolve(query);

	tcp::socket Socket(io_service);
	boost::system::error_code connect_error;
	Socket.connect(*iterator, connect_error);
	if(connect_error) {
		std::cout << "Could not connect to socket, exiting...";
		std::cin.get();
		return 1;
		}
	else 
		std::cout << "Connect Successful!\n";
        // ...
}
catch(std::exception &e) {
	std::cout << e.what();
	std::cin.get();
	return 1;
	}

try {
	Arguments *server = new Arguments(argv[1]);
	boost::asio::io_service io_service;
	using boost::asio::ip::tcp;

	tcp::acceptor acceptor(io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), atoi(argv[1])));
	tcp::socket socket(io_service);

	acceptor.accept(socket);
	std::cout << "hello\n"; // debug
}
catch(std::exception &e) {
	std::cout << e.what();
	std::cin.get();
	return 1;
}


I keep receiving the client error: "Could not connect to socket, exiting..."

Can anyone suggest why?
