boost_asio_socket_wrappers

Simple wrapper classes around common Boost ASIO socket interfaces.

Including in an External Project

Use the inclusions below in your CMakeLists.txt to have CMake fetch and build the library for you.

include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(
  simple_boost_asio_sockets
  GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/MShields1986/boost_asio_socket_wrappers
  GIT_TAG        main
)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(simple_boost_asio_sockets)

Then link against your intended compilation target.

Usage

TCP Server

#include <BoostSocketWrappers/tcp_server_boost.h>

BoostSocketWrappers::TcpServerBoost tcp_server;

size_t buffer_size(256);

tcp_server("192.1.1.10", 1111);
tcp_server.send("command string");
std::vector<unsigned char> response = tcp_server.receive(buffer_size);

TCP Client

#include <BoostSocketWrappers/tcp_client_boost.h>

BoostSocketWrappers::TcpClientBoost tcp_client;

size_t buffer_size(256);

tcp_client("192.1.1.10", 1111);
tcp_client.connect();
tcp_client.send("command string");
std::vector<unsigned char> response = tcp_client.receive(buffer_size);

UDP Client

#include <BoostSocketWrappers/udp_client_boost.h>

BoostSocketWrappers::UdpClientBoost udp_client;

size_t buffer_size(256);

udp_client("192.1.1.10", 1111);
std::vector<unsigned char> response = udp_client.receive(buffer_size);
