C++ Linking Chilkat Linux

Create project folder, for example ~cktest:
cd cktest
Download C++ GCC Chilkat Library: wget https://chilkatdownload.com/9.5.0.84/chilkat-9.5.0-x86_64-linux-gcc.tar.gz
tar xfz ./*.gz
Move include and lib folder to cktest
Create your .cpp program, for example my.cpp

#include <CkJsonObject.h>
#include <iostream>

int ChilkatSample()
{
	CkJsonObject json;
        bool success;
	int index = -1;

	success = json.AddStringAt(-1,"Title","Pan's Labyrinth");
	success = json.AddStringAt(-1,"Director","Guillermo del Toro");
	success = json.AddStringAt(-1,"Original_Title","El laberinto del fauno");
	success = json.AddIntAt(-1,"Year_Released",2006);

	json.put_EmitCompact(false);
	std::cout << json.emit() << "\r\n";
	exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

static int s = ChilkatSample();

int main()
{
    std::cout << "Inside main() - dummy things";
}

To compile: g++ my.cpp -I./include -L./lib -lchilkat-9.5.0 -lresolv -lpthread
To execute, you must copy library to default in your system location (/usr/lib /lib etc.)

Execute: ./a.out

 

#user@srv:~/C++/cktest# ./a.out
{
  "Title": "Pan's Labyrinth",
  "Director": "Guillermo del Toro",
  "Original_Title": "El laberinto del fauno",
  "Year_Released": 2006
}
