Is there openly available headers which can be used to compile linux socket application (using socket/udp/ip headers). they should define structures like sa_family_t,in_port_t
Mandatory is to use Msdev and not cygwin/gcc or mingw compiler.

As far as I know, there is no easy way to do this. Windows provides an entirely different set of system calls than linux, as well as a different method for handling sockets.

You can use the structures and functions declared in winsock.h or winsock2.h from the standard Win32 API. There are some differences from the standard BSD implementation, but for a simple socket-based application the port should be relatively straightforward.
