Usage

lib_netsockets is C++ light wrapper for POSIX and Winsock sockets with implementation of TCP client/server using JSON messages,and HTTP, FTP clients.

TCP server example

tcp_server_t server(2000);
while (true)
{
 socket_t socket = server.accept_client();
 handle_client(socket);
 socket.close();
}
server.close();

TCP client example

tcp_client_t client("127.0.0.1", 2000);
client.open();
client.write(buf, strlen(buf));
client.read_some(buf, sizeof(buf));
client.close();

HTTP client example

http_t client("www.mysite.com", 80);
client.get("/my/path/to/file", true);

FTP client example

Get file list from FTP server and first file in list

ftp_t ftp("my.ftp.site", 21);
ftp.login("my user", "anonymous");
ftp.get_file_list();
ftp.get_file(ftp.m_file_nslt.at(0).c_str());
ftp.logout();
