turret_lib

This library, turret_lib, provides a turretClient and turretLogger class, which communicate with a turret-server, and can be included in any c++ plugin which needs to resolve shotgun tank uris.

UTSALA provides two example projects which use turret_lib: turret_usd and turref_klf.

Usage
