Pion Network Library
C++ framework for building lightweight HTTP interfaces
Project Home: https://github.com/splunk/pion
Retrieving the code
git clone https://github.com/splunk/pion.git
cd pion
Building the code
For XCode: use pion.xcodeproj
For Visual Studio: use pion.sln
On Unix platforms (including Linux, OSX, etc.) you can run
./autogen.sh
./configure
to generate Makefiles using GNU autotools, followed by
make
to build everything except the unit tests.
You can build and run all the unit tests with
make check
Generate build using CMake
CMake is cross-platform build generator. Pion required cmake version 2.8.10+
To generate build call
cmake <path to pion clone> [-G <generator name>] [-D<option>...]
for example to generate MSVS2012 Win64 solution run
git clone [email protected]:splunk/pion.git
cd pion/build
cmake .. -G"Visual Studio 11 Win64"
this will create pion_solution.sln for MSVS2012/Win64
if cmake can't find dependency, use -D to control Find modules search behaviour
