Libcddb is a C library to access data on a CDDB server (freedb.org). It allows you to:
- search the database for possible CD matches;
- retrieve detailed information about a specific CD;
- submit new CD entries to the database.
Libcddb supports both the custom CDDB protocol and tunnelling
the query and read operations over plain HTTP. It is also
possible to use an HTTP proxy server. If you want to speed
things up, you can make use of the built-in caching facility
provided by the library.
There are three places where you can look if you want to
integrate this library into a project of your own. First of
all, there is the tutorial on this
site. Although this page is still under construction, it will
eventually explain every feature and function of the library.
Also on this site is the API
documentation generated with doxygen. You can use this to
quickly check the correct syntax of a certain function.
Finally, in the source archive there is an example program.
This program uses most of the functionality available in
libcddb.
