Atlas-C++ Welcome to Atlas-C++, the C++ reference implementation of the Atlas protocol. NOTE!: Many current programs use older version of Atlas-C++: Make fresh checkout to clean directory: cvs -z3 checkout -r atlas-cpp-0_3_10 forge/libs/Atlas-C++ This library implements the Atlas protocol, for use in client-server game applications. This library is suitable for linking to either clients or servers. VERSION This is Atlas-C++ 0.5.9x, the latest development version of Atlas-C++. The 0.4.x branch will contain NO API CHANGES. The 0.5.9x branch is completely experimental and may not be easy to track. Any changes affecting the API should go into 0.5.9x, as should any features which are not completely stable. 0.6.0 will be the next stable branch. SOCKET LIBRARIES Atlas-C++ relies on iostreams being used as socket streams for network communications. This means you will need to either use an existing library or use your own. One such a library is skstream, which you can download at: ftp://ftp.worldforge.org/pub/worldforge/libs/skstream/ DOCUMENTATION To generate the documentation, simply configure the tree, then in Atlas-C++/ type "make docs". This will use doxygen to generate the documentation, which will then reside in Atlas-C++/doc/. Please read the file HACKING carefully before working on Atlas-C++.
