This is a fork of the original library lsalzman/enet. While original repo offers a stable, time-tested wonderful library, we are trying to change some things, things, which can't be reflected on the main repo, like:
- integrated ipv6 support
- added monotonic time
- applied project-wide code style change
- cleaned up project
- single-header style code
- removed some of older/outdated methods
- and many other various changes
ENet's purpose is to provide a relatively thin, simple and robust network communication layer on top of UDP (User Datagram Protocol). The primary feature it provides is optional reliable, in-order delivery of packets, and fragmentation.
ENet omits certain higher level networking features such as authentication, lobbying, server discovery, encryption, or other similar tasks that are particularly application specific so that the library remains flexible, portable, and easily embeddable.
Download file releases/latest/enet.h and just add to your project.
Build the shared library:
$ cmake -B build -DENET_SHARED=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
$ cmake --build buildUse it:
#define ENET_DLL
#include <enet.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
if (enet_initialize () != 0) {
printf("An error occurred while initializing ENet.\n");
return 1;
}
enet_deinitialize();
return 0;
}Build the static library:
$ cmake -B build -DENET_STATIC=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
$ cmake --build buildUse it:
#include <enet.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
if (enet_initialize () != 0) {
printf("An error occurred while initializing ENet.\n");
return 1;
}
enet_deinitialize();
return 0;
}In this case, library will be embedded to the project itself.
Make sure you add a define for ENET_IMPLEMENTATION exactly in one source file before including the enet.h.
Here is a simple server and client demo, it will wait 1 second for events, and then exit if none were found:
Server:
#define ENET_IMPLEMENTATION

address.port = 7777; /* Bind the server to port 7777. */
#define MAX_CLIENTS 32
/* create a server */
ENetHost * server = enet_host_create(&address, MAX_CLIENTS, 2, 0, 0);
if (server == NULL) {
printf("An error occurred while trying to create an ENet server host.\n");
return 1;
}
printf("Started a server...\n");
ENetEvent event;
/* Wait up to 1000 milliseconds for an event. (WARNING: blocking) */
