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. PLATFORM SUPPORT OS/Kernel: - Windows (64-bit) - TODO: Linux Processor Architecture - x86-64 USAGE (TODO) CONTRIBUTING Pull requests are always welcome. LICENCE TBD, but probably i'll make it MIT or WTFPL :kekw:
