I am a newbie in socket programming, and wrote a code snipet recently to join a multicast group. But it does not work. setsockopt always return -1. Anyone can help me, thank you in advance.

SOCKET sock;
sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
if (INVALID_SOCKET == sock )
return;

struct ip_mreq mreq;
sockaddr_in addrto;
memset(&addrto,0,sizeof(addrto));
addrto.sin_family = AF_INET;
addrto.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("224.1.2.4");
addrto.sin_port = htons(6003);

mreq.imr_multiaddr = addrto.sin_addr;
mreq.imr_interface.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
int e = setsockopt(sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, (char*)&mreq, sizeof(mreq));
