These use C++11.

Overview

This is a C++11 project using autotools as the build system.

The modules are:

Always built

logging: multi-level logging library
string: some string functions not in string.h and friends
test: basic testcase-management and test-assertion library

Optional

globstari: file-globbing and ignore-files routines
- Depends on PCRE2

Using

Compiling with gcc

./configure && make -j  # normal
./coverage.sh           # for code coverage
./asan.sh               # for Address Sanitizer

Compiling with clang

./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ && make -j
./asan.sh clang                             # for Address Sanitizer

Note that CXX does have to be clang++, not just clang.

Developing

Development dependencies

Pretty-printing: Artistic Style, Ubuntu package astyle.
Docs: Doxygen and dot(1) (Ubuntu packages doxygen and graphviz)

Starting fresh

./autogen.sh && make -j maintainer-clean && ./autogen.sh

That will leave you ready to run make

The first time you compile, you may get errors about missing .deps/* files. If so, re-run make. If that doesn't work, run make -jk once to generate the deps files, and then you should be back in business.

Running the tests

make -j check, or ./asan.sh for Address Sanitizer testing.

Structure of the codebase

src/: implementation files
include/smallcxx/: header files
t/: tests. *-t.sh and *-t.cpp are test sources. *-s.cpp are supporting programs.
doc/: documentation. Doxygen output is in doc/html/index.html.

Coding style

4-space tabs, cuddled else. Run make prettyprint to format your code.
All Doxygen tags start with @ (not backslash).
