Features

Servus provides classes for:

  • 128 bit UUIDs.
  • A URI class to parse strings using generic syntax from RFC3986.
  • Zeroconf announcing and browsing using Avahi or DNSSD. This is an optional feature available only if the dependencies are found.

Changes

Version 1.0

  • Initial version.

About

Servus is partially cross-platform, the only mandatory dependency is using a C++11 compiler. Zeroconf will be available in those platforms were either Avahi or DNSSD are available. Servus uses CMake to provide a platform-independent build configuration. The following platforms and build environments have been tested:

  • Linux: Ubuntu 14.04, RHEL 6 using gcc 4.8.2

The following external, pre-installed optional dependencies are required:

  • Boost.Test to build unit tests.
  • Avahi (avahi-client) or DNSSD for zeroconf.
