<p>

      C++ Network Library is built upon <a href="http://www.boost.org/libs/asio/index.html" target="_top">Boost.Asio</a>,

      a high-quality, portable asynchronous I/O library that provides a solid interface

      for C++ network programming.

    </p>

<p>

      The architecture is driven by the requirement to separate requests from the

      transport mechanism. Additionally, it's possible to utilise templates and static

      mechanisms to make decisions at compile-time, resulting in more efficient and

      stable client code.

    </p>

<p>

      There are two main features of the architecture which use modern C++ techniques

      to allow extensibility without comprimising efficiency: tags and directives.

      These underly the design of the message.
