Lacewing is a framework for writing cross-platform, networked applications in C,
C++ and Javascript. Installing ========== On Windows, use the MSVC project file in the 'msvc' directory to build a DLL/LIB. On Linux/BSD/OS X: ./configure make make install Node.JS module: node-waf configure build node-waf install Android NDK (libssl.so/libcrypto.so are required - see docs/android_build.txt): cd jni ndk-build Changes in 0.2.0 (2011-07-14) ============================= - New Javascript liblacewing API for MozJS (SpiderMonkey/TraceMonkey) and V8. Currently only supports the webserver and utility classes. It is also now possible to build liblacewing as a Node.JS module - a wscript for node-waf is provided. - Added support for building for Android (Android.mk is in the 'jni' folder) - The build system has been changed from automake to autoconf with a simple Makefile. This should solve the headaches with building on different platforms (Windows users should still use the MSVC project as normal.) - Removed the dependency on STL, resulting in a much faster build and smaller binaries (particularly on Android.) This also makes it easier to link liblacewing into static Linux binaries. - New global hash functions, implemented via OpenSSL or the Win32 crypt32 API: * Lacewing::MD5 * Lacewing::MD5_Hex * Lacewing::SHA1 * Lacewing::SHA1_Hex - PostEventLoopExit() function added to the EventPump, to cause StartEventLoop() to return (once any pending events have been processed.) - In the Webserver, Request objects are now freed immediately after the connection is closed, after calling the disconnect handler. Previously, the Request object would remain in a disconnected state until Finish() was called. - In Unix, the EventPump class is is now just a default implementation of the Pump class, which can be derived from to use custom methods of watching FDs. A custom pump using libev is provided in the 'ev' folder. - Fixed some issues with Lacewing::Server on Unix: * SendFile didn't always complete in SSL mode * SendFile didn't send the file if open() returned 0 * The Disconnect handler didn't always trigger |
