Description

Over 30 hands-on recipes to create robust and highly-efficient cross-platform distributed applications with the Boost.Asio library About This Book Build highly efficient distributed applications with ease Enhance your cross-platform network programming skills with one of the most reputable C++ libraries Find solutions to real-world problems related to network programming with ready-to-use recipes using this detailed and practical handbook Who This Book Is For If you want to enhance your C++ network programming skills using the Boost.Asio library and understand the theory behind development of distributed applications, this book is just what you need. The prerequisite for this book is experience with general C++11. To get the most from the book and comprehend advanced topics, you will need some background experience in multithreading. What You Will Learn Boost your working knowledge of one of the most reputable C++ networking libraries-Boost.Asio Familiarize yourself with the basics of TCP and UDP protocols Create scalable and highly-efficient client and server applications Understand the theory behind development of distributed applications Increase the security of your distributed applications by adding SSL support Implement a HTTP client easily Use iostreams, scatter-gather buffers, and timers In Detail Boost.Asio is a powerful cross-platform C++ library designed by experts in the field to reduce complexity and simplify network programming, preserving efficiency at the highest level. Network programming is one of the most complicated areas in the software development industry, especially when high efficiency is a critical requirement. Even experienced software engineers make mistakes when developing distributed applications due to the inherent complexity of the tools available in modern operating systems. This is where Boost.Asio steps in and provides an excellent level of abstraction, making sure that you can create brilliant client-server applications with minimal coding. An additional benefit provided by the library is that the resulting application is cross-platform and can be built for most modern operating systems including Windows, Mac, and Linux. Starting with recipes demonstrating the execution of basic Boost.Asio operations, the book goes on to provide ready-to-use implementations of client and server applications from simple synchronous ones to powerful multithreaded scalable solutions. Finally, you are presented with advanced topics such as implementing a chat application, implementing an HTTP client, and adding SSL support. All the samples presented in the book are ready to be used in real projects just out of the box. As well as excellent practical examples, the book also includes extended supportive theoretical material on distributed application design and construction.
