c++utilities

Common C++ classes and routines used by my applications such as argument parser, IO and conversion utilities.

Build instructions

Building the library is simple:

INSTALL_ROOT=/where/you/want/to/install qmake-qt5 c++utilities.pro
make && make install

As you can see, the qmake build system is used. However the library itself does not depend on Qt.

It is also possible to build the library using CMake:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/where/you/want/to/install project/directory
make && make install

In any case, the make option -j might be used to compile multiple files in parallel.

The repository PKGBUILDs (also on GitHub) contains files for building Arch Linux packages. A PKGBUILD file to build for Windows using the Mingw-w64 compiler is also included.

TODO

  • provide unit tests
  • rewrite argument parser
  • remove unused features
