aws-c-event-stream
brew install aws-c-event-stream
v0.7.1
Apache-2.0
C99 shared library implementing Amazon EventStream content-type encoding/decoding.
Why you might care
Essential dependency for AWS SDK libraries and tools that need to parse or generate EventStream-formatted messages (used by services like S3 Select, DynamoDB Streams, Kinesis). You won't use this directly—it's a low-level building block for AWS C SDK integrations.
