It would be best to combine include/tscpp and include/tsutil into one directory (include/tscpp). External users writing plugins really don’t care about the dependency distinction between them.
This would mean that would would need to move the files from the lib/ts directory over to the lib/cppapi directory. Also, the cppapi library should be called libtscpp.so to be in sync with the include directory name. -Bryan > On May 24, 2018, at 6:45 AM, Alan Carroll <solidwallofc...@oath.com.INVALID> > wrote: > > Based on feedback here, on IRC, and on the PR, the changes have been > updated. > > Exported headers have been moved to the top level 'include' directory. > > include/ts -> C API headers. > include/tscpp -> C++ API headers. > include/tsutil -> C++ utility headers. > > The same directories are used for the install.
