ABOUT
|
|
Ciabatta - An implementation of CRT for x86-64 windows and linux platforms.
|
|
The goal is to provide a platform-independent CRT with the purpose of
|
|
explicitly defining some of platform-defined behaviours in order to simplify
|
|
the development and providing additional functionality to aid the developers in
|
|
writing cross-platform applications.
|
|
|
|
Note that Undefined Behaviour is impossible to define on a CRT level, since the
|
|
semantics of the language can only be changed at the compiler level. Sometimes
|
|
the compilers will replace CRT function calls with builtin functions, which is
|
|
meant as an optimization, e.g. replacing some forms of prinf() with puts() or
|
|
replacing strlen with an x86 rep movsb instruction. Even if ciabatta does have
|
|
a specific behaviour under given UB conditions, that behaviour is not
|
|
guaranteed.
|
|
|
|
The goals:
|
|
- Providing API for sockets, unicode processing (not just encodings), maybe
|
|
the support for common image and data file formats and other useful
|
|
non-standard functionality.
|
|
- Making it easy to port the library to a new platform, e.g. a custom OS
|
|
kernel or a different processor architecture.
|
|
- Defining implementation-defined behaviours of some of the functions and
|
|
explicitly documenting them.
|
|
- Make it reasonably fast compared to MSVCRT and GLIBC.
