A collection of frequently used features that the C language lacks: lists, hashes, trees, maths functions (vectors, matrices), between an etcetera of other utilities. My contribution to the constellation of existing general-purpose libraries.
The project born as an exercise to learn the language, since then I've been updating/refactoring it according to my needs and experience. There are some flaws to fix, designs to polish, bugs to add, and probably the library is too game-development oriented, I'm working on those aspects... any help is welcome.
| Header | - |
|---|---|
| buffer.h | Tiny fix over realloc(). |
| dictionary.h | Linear hash map, grows dynamically between a threshold. By default uses FNV1 as hash function. |
| endianness.h | Runtime functions to convert between little and big endianness. |
| image.h | Support for the unknown SGI format, up to 4 channels of 8 or 16 bits, optionally with RLE compression. |
| list.h | Double linked list. Friendly with the "fat pointer" technique. |
| matrix.h | 4x4 matrix operations. Based on linmath.h. |
| sound.h | Support for WAV and AU formats, with integer-samples of 8, 16, 32 bits or float-samples of 32, 64 bits. Handles U-Law and A-Law compression. |
| status.h | A method to pass error values between functions. |
| string.h | UTF8 and ASCII validation. Distinguishes between UTF8 units and bytes, can be used to count them. |
| tree.h | Just a generic tree. |
| utilities.h | Min, Max, DegToRad, and other one-liners. |
| vector.h | 2, 3, and 4 dimensions vectors. |
| Header | - |
|---|---|
| token.h | A tokenizer, as C makes string manipulation particularly hard. |
| configuration.h | Configuration variables (cvar) a la Quake. |
Compiles lovely with Clang, GCC and MSVC ❤️.
To clone and compile the repository with:
git clone https://github.com/baAlex/libjapan.git libjapan
cd libjapan
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
cmake --build . --config Debug
And for a release build the same procedure as above except for:
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
cmake --build . --config Release
By default if CMake finds cmocka installed, a test suite is build.
Modern, simpler approaches:
- stb.h, «This is a single header file with a bunch of useful utilities for getting stuff done in C/C++».
- Tbox, «The project focuses on making C development easier and provides many modules (...), so that any developer can quickly pick it up and enjoy the productivity boost when developing in C language».
- ZPL, «C99 cross-platform header-only library that offers powerful toolkit to accelerate your development progress».
