Producer-Consumer++

C++ version of Producer-Consumer. As of 25 September 2019, Producer-Consumer has switched from pthreads to C11 threads, making Producer-Consumer++ redundant. This project will receive little to no maintenance from this point forwards, because I've learned to hate C++ and OOP in general while working on it.

What's the same

• Portability
• Argument ordering and (theoretical) maximum width
• Control flow
• Output format
• Log file format

What's different - the good

• All structs from the original project have been rewritten as classes
• Producers and consumers have had their critical sections moved to dedicated functions in order to provide abstraction of their implementation details
• Underlying classes are highly reusable with little to no modification

What's different - the bad (as of 20 April 2019 with GCC 8.3 on Debian Testing x86)

• Executable size (with make release)
  • Producer-Consumer produces a 23112 byte (22.57 KiB) binary
  • Producer-Consumer++ produces a 53640 byte (52.38 KiB) binary
• Average compile time (make cleanall && time make release was run four times for each project)
  • Producer-Consumer has an average compile time of 0.338 seconds
  • Producer-Consumer++ has an average compile time of 2.6305 seconds
• Producer-Consumer++ is, on average, about 40% slower than Producer-Consumer when both versions are given identical arguments
