Description:

The utilities provided in this component are designed for the Zero Footprint solution for BLPAPI.

Usage:

The following snippet shows how to use a ZfpUtil method for starting a Session when using leased lines.

 blpapi::TlsOptions tlsOptions
                          = blpapi::TlsOptions::createFromFiles( /* ... */ );

 blpapi::SessionOptions opts = blpapi::ZfpUtil::getZfpOptionsForLeasedLines(
                                                blpapi::ZfpUtil::REMOTE_8194,
                                                tlsOptions);

 opts.setAuthorizationOptions(/* ... */);

 blpapi::Session session = blpapi::Session(opts);
 session.start();

Note that the resulting SessionOptions can be used in multiple sessions, so this operation only needs to be called once per application.
