== Boost.Http.Proto

=== This is currently NOT an official Boost library.

=== Overview

Boost.Http.Proto is a portable, low-level C++ library which provides containers and algorithms for implementing the HTTP/1.1 protocol described in the document https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7230[Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Message Syntax and Routing], henceforth referred to as https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7230[rfc7230].

Boost.Http.Proto offers these features:

• Require only C++11
• Works without exceptions
• Fast compilation, no templates
• Strict compliance with rfc7230

=== Requirements

• Requires Boost and a compiler supporting at least C++11
• Aliases for standard types use their Boost equivalents
• Link to a built static or dynamic Boost library, or use header-only (see below)
• Supports -fno-exceptions, detected automatically

==== Header-Only

To eliminate the requirement to link a program to a static or dynamic Boost.Http.Proto library, simply place the following line in exactly one source file in your project.

#include <boost/http_proto/src.hpp>

==== Embedded

Boost.HTTP.Proto works great on embedded devices. It is designed to work without exceptions if desired.

==== Supported Compilers

Boost.Http.Proto has been tested with the following compilers:

• clang: 3.8, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
• gcc: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
• msvc: 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, 14.3

==== Quality Assurance

The development infrastructure for the library includes these per-commit analyses:

• Coverage reports
• Benchmark performance comparisons
• Compilation and tests on Drone.io, Azure Pipelines, Appveyor
• Fuzzing using clang-llvm and machine learning
