Source
======
Source code lives on github `here`_
.. _here: https://github.com/rconybea/xo-flatstring
To clone from git:
.. code-block:: bash
git clone https://github.com/rconybea/xo-flatstring
Implementation relies on c++20 features (expanded use of constexpr; class-instances as template arguments).
Tested with gcc 13.2
Install
=======
Since xo-flatstring is header-only, can incorporate into another project just by copying the include directories
to somewhere convenient.
Copy includes
-------------
.. code-block:: bash
# For example..
cd myproject
mkdir -p ext/xo-flatstring
rsync -a -v path/to/xo-flatstring/include/ ext/xo-flatstring/
Include as git submodule
------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
cd myproject
git submodule add -b main https://github.com/rconybea/xo-flatstring ext/xo-flatstring
git submodule update --init
This assumes you organize directly-incorporated dependencies under directory ``myproject/ext``.
You would then add ``myproject/ext/xo-flatstring/include`` to your compiler's include path,
and from c++ do something like
.. code-block:: c++
#include <xo/flatstring/flatstring.hpp>
in c++ source files that rely on xo-flatstring
Supported compilers
-------------------
* developed with gcc 13.2.0; github CI using gcc 11.4.0 (asof April 2024)
Building from source
--------------------
Although the xo-flatstring library is header-only, unit tests have some dependencies.
Example instructions (github CI) for build starting from stock ubuntu are in `ubuntu-main.yml`_
.. _ubuntu-main.yml: https://github.com/Rconybea/xo-flatstring/blob/main/.github/workflows/ubuntu-main.yml
Unit test dependencies:
* `catch2`_ header-only unit-test framework
* `xo-cmake`_ cmake macros
* `xo-indentlog`_ logging with call-structure indenting
.. _catch2: https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2
.. _xo-cmake: https://github.com/rconybea/xo-cmake
.. _xo-indentlog: https://github.com/rconybea/indentlog
To build documentation, will also need:
* `doxygen`
* `graphviz`
* `sphinx`
* `breathe`
* `sphinx_rtd_theme`
