What is Lacewing?

A networking protocol

Lacewing is a networking protocol, with implementations in Windows C++, Python and Clickteam's Multimedia Fusion 2. It aims to provide an easy to implement, binary based protocol, in a familiar IRC-like structure.

A Lacewing protocol implementation is also being developed for Java and ActionScript 3.0.

A networking library

Lacewing is also a networking library for Windows. It is distributed as a DLL and C++ header/lib file, providing powerful and highly efficient socket classes, along with an embeddable webserver and an implementation of the Lacewing networking protocol.

The Lacewing networking library was used to develop AquadaSoft's Webdeling and the Lacewing extension for Clickteam's Multimedia Fusion 2.
