a cross-platform P2P library

INTRO:

tknet is designed to become a simple cross-platform P2P library.

tknet uses traditional centralized-server-based model, however, different from other P2P solutions, tknet peer is able to use Email server to track center servers (namely bridge peers or BDG peers) when necessary. It uses a private protocol and is still under development. Despite these, it works and it is simple.

I simply include how to build it in this README and have not written documents before I think it is at least usable and easy-to-use. If you are interested in this project, please let me know! I need some incentive to let tknet go further.

BUILD:

STEP 1:

Scons(see http://www.scons.org/) is required for building, OpenSSL-dev library is also needed if you want to enable SSL feature.

STEP 2:

Run the './tknet.sh build' command in the source directory, an executable demo program and the tknet binary library are created under ./bin folder.
