Warning

clibs is still experimental and mostly for personal use. The API may change without warning.

What is clibs anyway?

clibs are utility code (types, typedefs, macros, functions) used across C programs. They are self-contained and domain neutral, able to be applied to various situations.

System Requirements

• A C compiler that supports ANSI C
• GNU Make (only for testing)

clibs is written in ANSI C (C89). Nevertheless, We tested clibs against C89, C99 and C11. Hence, you may use it for code in either classic C or modern C.

We compile and run clibs with GCC, Clang, Visual C++ and Intel C++ Compiler.

We test clibs against several Unix or Unix-like systems:

• Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
• CentOS 8
• openSUSE Leap 15.1
• TrueOS, which is FreeBSD compatible

It should work on other Unix or Unix-like systems as well.

In addition, we test clibs on a Windows container provided by AppVeyor. Hence, clibs should work on Windows as well.

How to Use?

The utilities in clibs are self-contained, distributed as either single header or single header plus single source combo. Just copy what you need to your own C project.

test_*.c are test programs. You don't need them to use clibs.

Available Utilities:

• boolean.h: boolean type for C
• cio.h and cio.c: basic input and output
• clibs_control_structure.h: common control structures
• clibs_logging.h: logging for C
• clibs_math.h: basic math operations
• clibs_time.h and clibs_time.c: basic time operations
• cstring.h and cstring.c: utility functions for C strings (null-terminated char arrays)
• integer.h: fixed-width integer type for C (experimental)
• platform.h: platform-specific data
• print.h: console printing related function-like macros
• term_color.h: console color related macros
