Homepage: https://capnproto.org/
Description-en: Cap'n Proto C++ library (development files)
Similar to Protocol Buffers, Cap'n Proto is an efficient means of
serializing structured data to be transferred across a network or
written to disk. Users write a Cap'n Proto definition file that
drives a code generator, which in turn emits C++ code for encoding &
decoding messages in the Cap'n Proto format.
.
In addition to being extremely fast, Cap'n Proto also smooths over some
of the rougher aspects of Protocol Buffers & introduces a number of new
features to boot.
.
This package contains the headers and static libraries needed for writing
C++ applications.
