Installation under MacOS

[HeisenbergK]

Hello,

I am trying to install under MacOS.

The make command compiles and after I run sudo ./install.sh, the header files get copied as they should.

But, the .so file cannot be copied cause the target directory does not exist. Also I think it shouldn't be .so, cause Mac use dylib files.

I made it header-only (ac946e44fff3808d7556fda94a36a77aadc37b0c) so no need to use .so libraries.

I don't have macOS, if someone update the install.sh file to adapt macOS too, I will gladly merge it.

So let's verify your issues,

Step 1 ) let clone the project

Developments-iMac:test root# pwd
/Users/cristiang/test
Developments-iMac:test root# git clone https://github.com/eminfedar/async-sockets-cpp.git .
Cloning into '.'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 381, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (45/45), done.

2. Let install our headers

Developments-iMac:test root# ls
.git            .gitignore      LICENSE         README.md       async-sockets   examples        img
Developments-iMac:test root# cd async-sockets/
Developments-iMac:async-sockets root# ls
include         install.sh      remove.sh
Developments-iMac:async-sockets root# chmod +x install.sh
Developments-iMac:async-sockets root# ./install.sh
Info: The library has been copied to -> /usr/local/include

Example usage:
#include <async-sockets/tcp-client.hpp>
Developments-iMac:async-sockets root# ls /usr/local/include/async-sockets/
basesocket.hpp  tcpserver.hpp   tcpsocket.hpp   udpserver.hpp   udpsocket.hpp
Developments-iMac:async-sockets root#

3. Let Compile one of the example

Developments-iMac:test root# ls
.git            .gitignore      LICENSE         README.md       async-sockets   examples        img
Developments-iMac:test root# cd examples/
Developments-iMac:examples root# ls
CMakeLists.txt  Makefile        tcp-client.cpp  tcp-server.cpp  udp-client.cpp  udp-server.cpp
Developments-iMac:examples root# make tcp-server
g++ --std=c++11 tcp-server.cpp -I../async-sockets/include -lpthread -o tcp-server
Developments-iMac:examples root# ls
CMakeLists.txt  Makefile        tcp-client.cpp  tcp-server      tcp-server.cpp  udp-client.cpp  udp-server.cpp
Developments-iMac:examples root# ./tcp-server
New client: [172.30.1.21:54006]

172.30.1.21:54006 => ▒▒▒▒

If you provide more info on your steps I will be more happy to help
