Hello,respected author,I am a cpp developer(green hand) from china,recently specializing in the develop of secs protocol。May I ask if your case is complete?I think your code could give me some inspire

Dear Jieke,

Thanks for your interest! However, this project and its code is 10 years old, by far NOT spec-complete and inactive (dead).

However, I did use it a year ago at my job to do some very basic SECS testing, and it still worked. :-)

Just use it as an example to learn the SECS protocol, or how to design such implementation. However, is that ancient SECS really still used today?? You'd better push your company/client to use modern HTTP REST APIs, like the rest of the world...

EDIT: Updated the README to clearly state the project's inactive/dead status. See also the other/closed comments.

Respected author, Your project is really impressive。In China,most developer is overwhelmingly dependent on out-of-the-box frameworks,and ingoe the underlying principles of network protocols.For example,most Chinese java back-end developer can be familiar with Mybatis,Spring and SpringMVC.However,few people can describe the format of HTTP messages.How absurd it is!That's why I left Java development and choose cpp. Your project give me a way on decrypting and encrypting application layer messages as viewed from byte code.Maybe next time when I meet new application layer protocol,I can use your ideas to restore it. In a world,thank so much for your replying and your project. My english is not well,if there is a grammar error, please forgive me,thank you.
