The MQTTPacket directory contains the lowest level C library with the smallest requirements. This supplies simple serialization
and deserialization routines. It is mainly up to you to write and read to and from the network.
There are three sub-projects:
The MQTTClient directory contains the next level C++ library. This still avoids most networking code so that you can plugin the
network of your choice.
1. MQTTPacket - simple de/serialization of MQTT packets, plus helper functions
2. MQTTClient - high(er) level C++ client, plus
3. MQTTClient-C - high(er) level C client (pretty much a clone of the C++ client)
The *MQTTPacket* directory contains the lowest level C library with the smallest requirements. This supplies simple serialization
and deserialization routines. They serve as a base for the higher level libraries, but can also be used on their own
It is mainly up to you to write and read to and from the network.
The *MQTTClient* directory contains the next level C++ library. This networking code is contained in separate classes so that you can plugin the
network of your choice. Currently there are implementations for Linux, Arduino and mbed. ARM mbed was the first platform for which this was written,
where the conventional language choice is C++, which explains the language choice. I have written a starter [Porting Guide](http://modelbasedtesting.co.uk/2014/08/25/porting-a-paho-embedded-c-client/).
The *MQTTClient-C* directory contains a C equivalent of MQTTClient, for those platforms where C++ is not supported or the convention. As far
as possible it is a direct translation from *MQTTClient*.
## Build requirements / compilation
There are helper scripts (build...) in various directories. The client library is a set of building blocks which you pick and choose from, so that the smallest MQTT application can be built.
CMake builds for the various packages have been introduced, along with Travis-CI configuration for automated build & testing. The basic
method of building on Linux is:
```
mkdir build.paho
cd build.paho
cmake ..
make
```
The travis-build.sh file has the full build and test sequence for Linux.
## Usage and API
See the samples directory for examples of intended use.
See the samples directories for examples of intended use. Doxygen config files for each package are available in the doc directory.
## Runtime tracing
As yet, there is no tracing. For the smallest client, should we have tracing?
The *MQTTClient* API has debug tracing for MQTT packets sent and received - turn this on by setting the MQTT_DEBUG preprocessor definition.
