About:
I2util is a core component of the perfSONAR network measurement toolkit, providing essential utility functions for other services. It includes robust logging, configuration parsing, and cryptographic helpers designed for high-performance distributed systems. This package is primarily intended for developers building network measurement tools.
Key Features:
  • High-performance logging subsystem
  • Robust configuration file parsing
  • Cryptographic hash and random number utilities
  • Lightweight and portable C library
Use Cases:
  • Building custom network measurement applications
  • Implementing consistent logging across distributed systems
  • Parsing complex configuration files in C/C++ daemons
Alternatives:
  • glib – Much heavier dependency; I2util is specialized for perfSONAR's specific needs.
  • Boost – C++ focused and larger; I2util provides a simpler C-based utility set.
