The ffead-cpp Framework
ffead-cpp is a web-framework, application framework, utilities all bundled into one.
It also provides an embedded HTTP/HTT2/Web-Socket compliant high-performance server core.
It is a collection of modules all geared towards performing individual roles which together form the cohesive back-bone of ffead-cpp.
It provides a very simple to use and maintain web-framework library with advanced features like Reflection, Dependency Injection (IOC),
Inbuilt REST/SOAP support, Security/Authentication features. Moreover implementation for interfacing to caching tools like
Memcached/Redis are provided in-built.
Database integration/ORM framework (SDORM) solves all major issues with respect to interfacing with SQL/No-SQL database alike.
Multi-level serialization or template level serialization is a high point of ffead-cpp core serialization run-time. Any C++ POCO class
can be marked as serializable and the run-time will take care of marshalling/un-marshalling the object to its intended serializable form
and back(JSON/XML/BINARY).
ffead-cpp can be easily driven by XML configuration, Services/Controllers/Filters/Interfaces/API(s) are all simple POCO classes without
any need for them to extend any classes.
The differentiating feature in ffead-cpp is the usage/implementation/support for markers (Annotations in java). Simple #pragma
directives can now be used to drive the entire configuration in ffead-cpp, so you can just forget XML configuration.
All in all ffead-cpp is the gap in the world of C++ web application or enterprise application development which I have tried to fill
with my humble/honest effort.
Starting version 3.0 ffead-cpp supports both autoconf and cmake for builds
