• bux is not Buck's. It could be box!

• Supplemental static library of whatever are seen required in sense of general purpose but not directly supported from Modern C++. Or whatever is deemed reusable from my side projects.

• Doxygen-generated API reference is here. 💡 Doxygen has been known for being insensitive to Modern C++ for so many years. Keywords like any of attributes, ... etc can be misinterpreted or simply dropped. Viewer's discretion is advised.

1. Make sure you have installed yay or any other pacman wrapper

2. yay -Ss bux

3. To define target executable foo using bux in CMakeLists.txt

   add_executable(foo foo.cpp)
   target_compile_options(foo PRIVATE -std=c++2a)
   target_link_libraries(foo bux)

4. Include the header files by prefixing header name with bux/, for example:

   #include <bux/Logger.h>

   p.s. Header files are in /usr/include/bux and compiler is expected to search /usr/include by default.

5. If directly using gcc or clang is intended, the required compiler flags are -std=c++23 -lbux

1. Make sure you have installed cmake(3.18 or newer) make gcc(13 or newer) git, or the likes.

2. git clone -b main --single-branch https://github.com/buck-yeh/bux.git .
   cmake .
   make -j
   BUX_DIR="/full/path/to/current/dir"

   p.s. You can install a tagged version by replacing main with tag name.

3. To define target executable foo using bux in CMakeLists.txt

   add_executable(foo foo.cpp)
   target_compile_options(foo PRIVATE -std=c++2a)
   target_include_directories(foo PRIVATE "$env{BUX_DIR}/include") 
   target_link_directories(foo PRIVATE "$env{BUX_DIR}/src") 
   target_link_libraries(foo bux)

4. Include the header files by prefixing header name with bux/, for example:

   #include <bux/Logger.h>

5. If directly using command gcc or clang is intended, the required compiler flags are -std=c++23 -I$BUX_DIR/include -L$BUX_DIR/src -lbux

6. Subdirectory test/ is excluded by default. To build with it, reconfigure cmake with:

   rm CMakeCache.txt
   cmake . -DBUILD_TEST=1
   make

   And test all of them:

   cd test
   ctest .

3. Include the header files by prefixing header name with bux/, for example:

   #include <bux/Logger.h>

• Intervals.h - std::C_Intervals<T> defines its own arithmetics but is currently ever used by scannergen
• PartialOrdering.h - Define partial ordering as container in order to generate a compatible linear ordering.
• XQue.h - An efficient generic queue.
• Xtack.h - Generic stack types.

• EZArgs.h - Inspired by Python argparse.ArgumentParser with interfaces making sense to Modern C++
• LogStream.h - Marginal utilities for std::ostream, used by loggers.
• MemIn.h - Drop-in replacement of C++98-deprecated std::istrstream.
• MemOut.h - Drop-in replacement of C++98-deprecated std::ostrstream. (Not used recently)
• Serialize.h - Simple functions to define serialization/deserialization in a symmetric way.
• StrUtil.h - String utilities.
• UnicodeCvt.h - Encode text stream to unicodes (utf8/utf16/utf32)

• FileLog.h - bux::C_PathFmtLogSnap can be configured to automatically change the output path, IOW to output to different files, according to the current timestamp. The object is a plugin to bux::C_ReenterableOstreamSnap and bux::C_ParaLog
• Logger.h - Log macros for various needs with singleton bux::logger() in mind.
• LogLevel.h - LL_FATAL, LL_ERROR, LL_WARNING, LL_INFO, LL_VERBOSE
• ParaLog.h - bux::C_ParaLog is a logger facade to reroute log lines to multiple child loggers
• SyncLog.h - Basic classes to give variety of thread-safe loggers.

• FA.h - Supports to finite automaton, aka finite state machine, aka regular expression, emphasizing on minimizing NFA into DFA.
• GLR.h - Implementation of Generalized LR parser
• ImplGLR.h - Stuffs constantly needed by parsergen-generated *.cpp files for syntaxes classified as GLR.
• ImplLR1.h - Stuffs constantly needed by parsergen-generated *.cpp files for syntaxes classified as LR1.
• ImplScanner.h - Generic implementation of scanner, aka lexical analyzer, mainly used by scannergen
• LexBase.h - Basic supports to create lexical tokens and parsers.
• LR1.h - Implementation of LR1 parser
• ParserBase.h - Common supports to all parsers.
• Range2Type.h - bux::fittestType() called by parsergen & scannergen.
• ScannerBase.h - Generic supports to all scanners.

• FsUtil.h - Utilities solely related to <filesystem>
• XConsole.h - Cross-platform console functions.
• XPlatform.h - Most possibly macros & typedefs defined in per-platform fashions.

• AtomiX.h - Spin lock on std::atomic_flag & a mapping cache type using it.

• SafeArith.h - Supports to safe arithmetics. (Not used recently)
• XAutoPtr.h - Safe std::auto_ptr dated back to pre-C++11 years. It ain't broke ...
• XException.h - Macros to throw std::runtime_error, std::logic_error, as well as other exceptions, with location & formatted message.
