libsocks6msg

SOCKS 6 message library

Building the library

You will need the following packages:

• qt5-qmake
• Boost (libboost-dev(el))

Afterwards, simply run:

qmake
make
sudo make install

By default, everything is placed in /usr/local. You can edit socks6msg.pro to change that.

Differences from the standard

Because SOCKS 6 is still subject to change, apps linked against different versions of this library may use different wire formats. To avoid such miscommunication, this implementation uses a non-standard value for the version field. The number will change whenever a new specification is released.
