IRC Bot Connection Error

[pobri19]

Basically I'm just trying to make a client program to connect to an IRC server atm but I can't figure out why this won't work. WSAGetLastError continously returns the error 10047 at the call to connect() when I enter "irc.gamesurge.net 6667" as the first and second parameter.

10047:

WSAEAFNOSUPPORT
0x273F
An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.

Here's the code:

#include <iostream>
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <ws2tcpip.h>
#include <cstring>
#include <Mstcpip.h>

using namespace std;

WSADATA wsaData;

int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {

	int wsaReturnVal = WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(1, 1), &wsaData);
	if (wsaReturnVal) {
		printf("Error number: %d", wsaReturnVal);
		exit(1);
	}

	struct addrinfo hints, *res = NULL;
	SOCKET sockfd;

	memset(&hints, 0, sizeof(addrinfo));
	memset(&res, 0, sizeof(addrinfo));

	hints.ai_family = AF_UNSPEC;
	hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
	hints.ai_protocol = IPPROTO_TCP;

	getaddrinfo(argv[1], argv[2], &hints, &res);

	sockfd = socket(res->ai_family, res->ai_socktype, res->ai_protocol);

	if (sockfd == SOCKET_ERROR) {
	 	printf("connect error %d", WSAGetLastError());
		exit(1);
	}
	
	if (connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)res, sizeof(addrinfo)) == SOCKET_ERROR) {
	 printf("connect error %d", WSAGetLastError());
	 exit(1);
	}

	printf("Connected to IRC server...");
	closesocket(sockfd);

	if (WSACleanup()) {
		printf("cleanup %d", WSAGetLastError());
		exit(1);
	}
}
