An idiomatic C++ client library for theConnectors API, a service that enables users to create and manage connections to Google Cloud services and third-party business applications.
While this library isGA, please note that the Google Cloud C++ client libraries donotfollowSemantic Versioning.
Quickstart
The following shows the code that you'll run in thegoogle/cloud/connectors/quickstart/directory, which should give you a taste of the Connectors API C++ client library API.
The main class in this library isconnectors_v1::ConnectorsClient. All RPCs are exposed as member functions of this class. Other classes provide helpers, configuration parameters, and infrastructure to mockconnectors_v1::ConnectorsClientwhen testing your application.
