- <para></para>
+ <para>Before we begin, you will have to set up a running Zookeeper server so
that we can start developing the client. For C client bindings, we will be using the multithreaded
library(zookeeper_mt) with a simple example written in C. To establish a connection with Zookeeper
server, we make use of C API - <emphasis>zookeeper_init</emphasis> with the following
signature:</para>
