C++ library with following components:

1. Dynamic data typing. It is realized in Dynamic class (see src/nkit/dynamic.h) which supports following data types:
   • INTEGER: represets integer values (implemented via int64_t type)
   • UNSIGNED_INTEGER: represets unsigned integer values (implemented via uint64_t type)
   • FLOAT: represets numbers with floating point (implemented via double type)
   • BOOL: represets boolean values (implemented via bool type)
   • DATE_TIME: represets simple date-time values with microseconds and 0 <= year <= 9999 (implemented via uint64_t type)
   • STRING: represets string values (implemented via std::string)
   • LIST: represets list of Dynamic values (implemented via std::vector)
   • DICT: represets map of string keys to Dynamic values (implemented via std::map<std::string, Dynamic>)
   • MONGODB_OID: represets string values with limited behaviour for holding MongoDb ObjectID (implemented via std::string)
   • TABLE: represets table of Dynamic values with support of multiple indexes, sorting and grouping by multiple fields
   • UNDEFINED: represents uninitialized value, that can be changed in the future
   • NONE: represents NULL value, that can not be changed

. Simple test framework

3. Logger

Dynamic values can be used to deal with JSON: it is possible to convert JSON to Dynamic variable and vice-versa.

It is mandatory to have yajl library for JSON paring (https://github.com/lloyd/yajl, version >= .0.4)

If your C++ compiler does not support std::shared_ptr, then it is mandatory to have Boost library (http://boost.org, version >= 1.53)

cd to/nkit/root

This commands will configure, build and install debug version of nkit library (with non-system boost):

./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/path/to/installation/folder --with-boost=/path/to/boost --with-yajl=/path/to/yajl --debug

make -C Debug-build

make -C Debug-build install

This commands will configure, build and install release version of nkit library (with system boost):

./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/path/to/installation/folder --with-boost --with-yajl=/path/to/yajl --release

make -C Release-build

make -C Release-build install

This commands will configure, build and install release-with-debug-version of nkit library (without boost, if C++ compiler supports std::shared_ptr):

./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/path/to/installation/folder --with-yajl=/path/to/yajl --rdebug

make -C RelWithDebInfo-build

make -C RelWithDebInfo-build install

For all configure options type

./bootstrap.sh --help

See test/test_*.cpp files for various use cases.

User friendly usage info will be added here as soon as possible.
