This repo is a playground where I teach myself new stuff about C++.
This is all quite broken at the moment. I wrote my own implementation of C++ futures, and then realized that I really need to learn P2300 senders+receivers. Starting out on that made me realize that I needed to move on from header-only libraries. (libunifex needs to be built.) And also use git submodules. The niggly contains the base library along with install scripts.
Since this is a personal project, it very much is "works for me". I use Ubuntu and MacOS.
Use the build script bin/build-cc.sh to install custom versions of clang (llvm) and gcc.
The ./run.sh script is a front end to the Makefile... it:
- Sets environment variables that change the mode of the Makefile.
- Runs make
- Runs the code, including under gdb.
- Spin out install stuff, including
project-config
- P2300, senders/receivers
- With Linux's io_uring
- Ranges
- Modules (when clang-scan-deps is available)
- Concepts
- source_location
- Calendar/Time Zone library
- jthread
- owned (dumb) smart pointer (library)
- coroutines
- arch directory for dependencies
- LTO
- unity build
- asan/usan/tsan/debug/release
- testing with gtest/catch
- constexpr-testing
- fuzz testing
- coverage
- benchmark
- compiled examples
- doxygen
- cmake? (groan)
- refined "niggly" library. (Rename?)
- Make every string function aware of custom string types (ranges)
- Polyfill methods
- websockets -- websockets to work in WebAssembly (through Javascript), and stand alone executable
- Symmetric client/server rpc service over websocket layer
- cpp_asio_grpc_unifex, a grpc example
- StateMachine, with undo/redo checkpoints (external polymorphism?)
- User Interface
- SDL/ImGUI of Webassembly
- Curses server with logging to file (tail -f) Always wanted to do this
