#FAQ

##What is this? 'Common-utils' is a set of header-only libraries which are shared across github.com/2SilentJay projects. Some of these projects use 'common-utils' as a git submodule. The source code base is divided into three sections;

• samples - This part contains sample applications and any other experimental stuff. It's the only compilable part of the project. The rest of it is a header-only code base. samples depends on lib.
• lib - The library set itself. It has many sub-libraries inside. Some of them depend on each other.
• test - A unit test set which cover the core libraries components.

sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev

# Clone the project.
git clone https://github.com/2SilentJay/common-utils.git
