Hello. I'm newbie for boost library.
I'm trying to write a HTTP Parser, which handles the HTTP message coming from the proxy server.
I don't know much about the boost, so I'm really confused on what to use to write my functionality.
When I search on the internet, some say that I need to used Boost.Asio and Some say Boost.Spirit.
When I looked over the document for each, I found that Boost.Asio is like network library for C++ and Boost.Spirit is for writing compilers. As I mention above, I want to write a http parser. I think the relevant one is the following: https://github.com/joyent/http-parser
Spirit is a parsing library and is well suited for building what you need. There is a Spirit mail list and an active IRC channel on freenode (##spirit) http://www.boost.org/community/groups.html#spirit michael -- Michael Caisse ciere consulting ciere.com
