Building and installation

To build libre we are using GNU Make. External dependencies are automatically detected by the makefile.

$ cd re
$ make
$ sudo make install

Examples and Demonstration

A separate redemo package is available in download directory.

Here you will find examples on how to use the libre toolkit, including demonstations on how to create a basic UDP and TCP server with less than 100 and 200 lines of C-code respectively. Additionally you will find a basic SIP user-agent example. All the demo programs are built by simply typing make from the redemo directory.

Design Goals

• Portable POSIX source code (ANSI C89 and ISO C99 standard)
• Intelligent and user friendly APIs
• Robust, fast, low memory footprint
• RFC compliance
• IPv4 and IPv6 support

Documentation

Doxygen API documentation can be found here.
