libzeug

Libzeug is a collection of C++ functions, classes and libraries that are too small to be standalone. It acts like a storage point for useful and reusable code for everyone using C++. Libzeug is a cross-platform library licenced under the MIT license.

The current modules in libzeug are:

• iozeug
• loggingzeug
• propertyguizeug
• reflectionzeug
• scriptzeug
• signalzeug
• threadingzeug

The current pre-release is libzeug-v0.1.0. To find out more about libzeug and how to use it, check out our wiki.

Dependencies

The following dev-libraries and programs need to be provided for correct CMake configuration:

• C++11 compatible compiler (e.g. gcc 4.7, VS 2013)
• CMake (>=2.8.9, better 2.8.12): http://www.cmake.org/
• Qt5 (>= 5.0): http://www.qt-project.org/

Development Notes

If you are contributing to this project, please keep the following notes in mind:

• Add your name and email to the AUTHORS file.
• Follow coding conventions according to google's C++ Style Guide.
• Commits should provide a meaningful message, which uses the imperative, present tense: "change", not "changed" nor "changes", AND start with a capital letter.
• Commits should always refer to an issue: use #xxx, fix #xxx, or close #xxx.
• Pull Requests are reviewed by at least one other developer on another platform.
• Use lazy initialization as often as possible for time consuming tasks.
• Member Variables always start with m_, g_, and s_ (e.g.,m_member, g_global, and s_static)..
• Interface or abstract class names always start with Abstract (e.g., AbstractPainter).
• Enforce strict include sequence: gl, glew, std, glm, header, glow (there should be only a few exceptions).

iozeug

iozeug contains a function to read a file into an std::string.

loggingzeug

loggingzeug provides stream like logging functionality with customizable outputs (default output is to the console).

propertyguizeug

propertyguizeug contains the automatic generation of a GUI from a set of properties from reflectionzeug.

reflectionzeug

reflectionzeug allows the definition of properties that can be used to parameterize a program. It supports saving and loading properties to and from a file. The currently implemented property types are bool, float, double, std::string, FilePath, Color, every integral type, user-defined enums and glm types. Every prior type can be wrapped in an std::array. You can extend reflectionzeug and add your own types.

scriptzeug

configure V8 in Win with x64 and no i18n: python build\gyp_v8 -Dtarget_arch=x64 -Dv8_enable_i18n_support=0 -Dcomponent=shared_library build: msbuild /p:Configuration=Release tools\gyp\v8.sln

signalzeug

signalzeug is a small library that provides classes for a simple signal system. Objects can define signals they can fire and other objects can register on those signals. Arbitrary parameters and even signal chaining are allowed.

threadingzeug

threadingzeug provides a parallel_for function that uses either OpenMP or the std::thread classes to execute a for loop concurrently.
