librfc is a C/C++ shared library containing public domain implementations
of core RFC data structures and algorithms written in C++11.
- No runtime dependencies other than the system's C++ standard library.
- No build prerequisites beyond the Autotools toolchain and a C++11 compiler.
- Compatible with Clang and GCC, or any standard C++11 implementation.
- Plays nice with others: all exported symbols are prefixed with
rfc. - 100% free and unencumbered public domain software, usable in any context and for any purpose.
