C++ REST SDK



The C++ REST SDK is developed by Microsoft.

It's a  modern asynchronous C++ API design  for cloud-based client-server communication in native code. 

By using this project  C++ developers can connect to and interact with services.

C++ REST SDK can be installed on Windows by using VCPKG


Download C++ Rest SDK GitHub Repo - Microsoft Original Repository


Install packages with VCPKG 

Install Visual Studio with C++ 

Install Windows SDK 




git clone https://github.com/microsoft/cpprestsdk.git

Go inside VCPKG folder


.\vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat 

To use vcpkg with Visual Studio, Run the command below.

.\vcpkg\vcpkg integrate install 


Run Following command to install the libraries list zlib ,openssl ,boost-system, boost-date-time ,boost-regex, boost-interprocess, websocketpp, brotli

X64 

vcpkg install --triplet x64-windows zlib openssl boost-system boost-date-time boost-regex boost-interprocess websocketpp brotli


X86

vcpkg install --triplet x86-windows zlib openssl boost-system boost-date-time boost-regex boost-interprocess websocketpp brotli


Open cppretsdk in Visual Studio 2019 IDE

Right click on the file explorer window 


Open in Visual Studio 2019


Open & Edit CMakeSettings.json file - Add X64 and X86 settings
