Libcfu is a library of tools that I have found useful, particularly when developing multithreaded software. It includes a hash table, a linked list, self-extending strings, a config file parser, a simple timer, a thread queue, and command-line parser. Installation: The `configure shell script attempts to guess correct values for various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses those values to create a `Makefile in each directory of the packag e. It may also create one or more `.h files containing system-dependent definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status that you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a file `config.log containing compiler output (useful mainly for debugging `configure). It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache or simply `-C) that saves the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. (Caching is disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale cache files.) If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try to figure out how `configure could check whether to do them, and mail diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README so they can be considered for the next release. If you are using the cache, and at some point `config.cache contains results you dont want to keep, you may remove or edit it. The file `configure.ac (or `configure.in) is used to create `configure by a program called `autoconf. You only need `configure.ac if you want to change it or regenerate `configure using a newer version of `autoconf. The simplest way to compile this package is: 1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute `configure itself. Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for. 2. Type `make to compile the package. 3. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package. 4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation. 5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean. There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution. Whats New in This Release: - Added command-line option processing - Added libcfu-config - Added a map function to cfulist: cfulist_map() - Added cfulist_new_with_free_fn().
