C++ api client
|

==============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This describes how to write a C++ api client connecting to VPP's binary API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Connecting to VPP is done with :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
auto err = con.connect("example_client", nullptr, 32, 32);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can specify the path to the api socket/shared memory you want to connect to
|
||
|
|
with the second parameter (set to ``nullptr``, meaning default)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ./api_example/api_example.cc
|
||
|
|
:language: cpp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build this you could use the following makefile
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ./api_example/Makefile
|
||
|
|
:language: makefile
|
