libpara

Introduction

This library starts as the personal interest in practicing things learned from daily work or reading books on C++. The focus is on providing useful interfaces that can be reused in parallel, which is how the name came: lib(rary)para(llel)

There are several main goals for this library eventually to lead to:

• Support advanced threading features in old CXX standard (e.g. scoped lock in CXX11)
• Support processing and interesting derivatives out of it
• Support algorithms that are built upon previous bullets

Prerequisites

cmake (>=3.10.0 && <= 3.19.0) is used to build the code.

We will tend to support cxx11/14/17 at the same time. But for now, at least 14 is required to compile tests

If BUILD_TESTS option is turned on (ON by default), user is required to have googletest preinstalled and searchable by CMake.

Platforms

With limited amount of spare time and equipment, this library is only tested on Ubuntu 20.04 through WSL2 on Windows. It should work on native Ubuntu as well.
