	# C++ kafka library
	This library allows you to produce messages to the Kafka distributed publish/subscribe messaging service.

	## Requirements
	Tested on Ubuntu and Redhat both with g++ 4.4 and Boost 1.46.1

	## Installation
	Make sure you have g++ and the latest version of Boost:
	http://gcc.gnu.org/
	http://www.boost.org/

	```bash
	./autoconf.sh
	./configure
	```

	Run this to generate the makefile for your system. Do this first.


	```bash
	make
	```

	builds the producer example and the KafkaConnect library


	```bash
	make check
	```

	builds and runs the unit tests,


	```bash
	make install
	```

	to install as a shared library to 'default' locations (/usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include on linux)


	## Usage
	Example.cpp is a very basic Kafka Producer


	## API docs
	There isn't much code, if I get around to writing the other parts of the library I'll document it sensibly,
	for now have a look at the header file: /src/producer.hpp
