To realize the [raii](/questions/tagged/raii "show questions tagged 'raii'") idiom for the type `SOCKET`, I have created a wrapper. The wrapper calls `connect` in the constructor and `closesocket` in its destructor. A `std::map` holds all used sockets. Unfortunatelly inserting a new socket into the container calls the destructor of a temporary and, in fact, closes the just opened socket. Is there a common way to overcome this?

Here is the code:

```cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <stdexcept>
#include <map>
#include <winsock2.h>

struct Socket {
    SOCKET mSock;
    Socket() : mSock(INVALID_SOCKET) {}
    Socket(std::string ip, int port);
    ~Socket();
};

Socket::Socket(std::string ip, int port) {
    mSock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
    if (mSock == INVALID_SOCKET)
        throw std::runtime_error("socket()");
    SOCKADDR_IN addr = {0};
    addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
    addr.sin_port = htons(port);
    addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(ip.c_str());
    if (connect(mSock, reinterpret_cast<SOCKADDR*>(&addr), sizeof(addr))
        == SOCKET_ERROR)
        throw std::runtime_error("connect()");
    std::cout << mSock << " connected" << std::endl;
}

Socket::~Socket() {
    if (mSock != INVALID_SOCKET) {
        closesocket(mSock);
        std::cout << mSock << " closed" << std::endl;
    }
}

int main() {
    WSADATA wsa;
    WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2, 0), &wsa);
    std::map<int, Socket> outbound;
    // calls constructur but also destructor
    outbound[0] = Socket("192.168.128.125", 4023);
    WSACleanup();
    return 0;
}

```

And the Output is:

```
1952 connected
1952 closed
1952 closed

```
