Description-en: Development files for C++ REST SDK / Casablanca
The C++ REST SDK (codename "Casablanca") is a Microsoft project for cloud-based
client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API
design. This project allows C++ developers to take advantage of the radical
shift in software architecture that cloud computing represents.
* Support for accessing REST services from native code on Linux, Windows
Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 by providing asynchronous C++ bindings
to HTTP, JSON, and URIs
* Implementation of Asynchronous Streams and Stream Buffers
* A consistent and powerful model for composing asynchronous operations based
on C++ 11 features
* A set of samples and reference documentation
* New experimental features such as HTTP Listener library and support for
Windows Phone 8 and Windows XP.
.
This package contains header files that are needed to develop and
compile applications which utilizes the C++ REST SDK / Casablanca framework.
