ZLToolKit is a lightweight C++11 network programming framework built on epoll/kqueue/wepoll with thread pools and asynchronous IO for high-concurrency servers. It also bundles threading utilities (timers, semaphores, thread pools), logging, INI config, ring buffers, MySQL connection pooling, SSL helpers, and command-line parsing.

Use cases

• build a high-concurrency tcp server in c++
• lightweight c++ network library with epoll and thread pool
• cross-platform socket library for linux windows macos android ios
• async task execution with a c++ thread pool
• simple logging library with colors and async printing
• mysql connection pool with placeholder sql
• ring buffer for network io
• parse command line options in a c++ app

When to choose

• you need a compact, permissively licensed (MIT) C++11 networking foundation
• you want epoll/kqueue/wepoll-based async IO without heavy dependencies
• you are building or extending ZLMediaKit-style server applications
• you need cross-platform support including mobile (iOS/Android)

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured framework with HTTP routing, WebSockets, or async/await ergonomics out of the box
• you prefer Boost.Asio's ecosystem and documentation
• you need Rust/Go-level memory safety guarantees
• your project requires extensive third-party community support
