Quick Start

This demo simply send http request to tool.chinaz.com and print resposne data.

The tests & examples

  • tests:

  • examples:

    • ftp_server: A simple ftp server only support file download which is based on yasio,click to visit.
    • lua: lua test contains http request,TCP unpack test code.
    • xlua: Unity3D xlua Integration Demo.
    • DemoUE4: Unreal Engine 4 Integration Demo.

Build tests & examples

  • Ensure install compiler which support C++11, such as msvc, gcc, clang
  • Ensure git, cmake installed
  • Execute follow commands:
  git clone https://github.com/yasio/yasio
  cd yasio
  git submodule update --init --recursive 
  cd build
  # for xcode should be: cmake .. -GXcode
  cmake ..
  cmake --build . --config Debug
