The src directory contains the source code to the command line version of Bredbandskollen CLI, a bandwidth measurement tool.

How to build Bredbandskollen's CLI client

Note: Pre-compiled binaries for the most common platforms can be downloaded from

http://www.bredbandskollen.se/en/bredbandskollen-cli/

On Windows, open

src/wincli/wincli.sln

in Visual Studio 2015 or later, then choose "Build".

On all other platforms, change to the directory

src/cli

and run the command "make" (or "gmake"). GNU Make and a compiler with support for C++11 is required, e.g. GCC version 4.7 or later or LLVM Clang version 3.9 or later.

To use a specific compiler, do e.g.

make CXX=clang++

To enable support for TLS/SSL, install GnuTLS version 3.5 or later, and do

make clean
make GNUTLS=1

To perform a bandwidth measurement using TLS, do

./cli --test --ssl

For more information, see "Platform Notes" below.

How to run the CLI client

To perform a mesurement, simply run the executable program that was built using the above steps. For more information, run it with the --help argument or read

https://frontend.bredbandskollen.se/download/README.txt

About the source code

The directories framework and http contain a basic C++ network programming framework with support for "tasks" and "timers". Some of the features are explained by demo programs in the examples directory.

The directory json11 contains a JSON library for C++ provided by Dropbox, Inc.

The directory measurement contains the bandwidth measurement engine, built atop the framework.

The directory cli contains a command line interface to the measurement engine.

The directory qt5gui contains the source code for a GUI to the measurement engine. To build it, Qt5 and QWebEngine are required. You must run the Qt5 version of qmake to create a Makefile before running make to build the GUI.

Platform Notes

Windows

The code has not been thoroughly tested on Windows. Pull requests are welcome.
