C++ client/server with SSL/TLS support (header file only)

About

This is a header file only implementation of a C++20 periodic jthread.

Compilation has been tested with:

• GCC 11.3.0 (GNU/Linux Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS)
  • cmake 3.22.1
  • googletest 1.11.0-3
  • clang 14.0.0-1ubuntu1
• Visual Studio Community 2022 17.4.4 (64-bit) (Windows 11)
  • cmake 3.26.0-rc1
  • googletest 1.13.0

Usage

Periodic Thread

Create a CPeriodicThread object for executing a function periodically.

// assuming "myPeriodicThread" is a valid void return function to call periodically
std::function<void()> f = myPeriodicThread;
// call "f" every 1000 millliseconds or 1 second
CPeriodicThread p(f, 1000);

The periodicity of the called function doesn not subtract out for the execution of the user provided function. For example, if a periodicity of 1 second is requested and the called user function takes 0.5 seconds to execute, the function will be called the second time at start time + 1.5 seconds and second function call will be called at start time + 3 seconds and so forth.

Thread Safety

Each periodic thread is its own instance and thread safe by itself.

Installation

Use the CPeriodicThread.hpp file in your source tree and include it in the file that need to use it.

Run Unit Tests

Unit tests run with ctest:

ctest -C debug
