|
||
The <code class="filename">libstdc++-v3</code> directory in the
|
||
GCC sources contains the files needed to create the GNU C++ Library.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
It has subdirectories:
|
||
</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">doc</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Files in HTML and text format that document usage, quirks of the
|
||
implementation, and contributor checklists.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
All header files for the C++ library are within this directory,
|
||
modulo specific runtime-related files that are in the libsupc++
|
||
directory.
|
||
|
||
<div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/std</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Files meant to be found by <code class="code">#include <name></code> directives
|
||
in standard-conforming user programs.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/c</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Headers intended to directly include standard C headers.
|
||
[NB: this can be enabled via <code class="option">--enable-cheaders=c</code>]
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/c_global</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Headers intended to include standard C headers in
|
||
the global namespace, and put select names into the <code class="code">std::</code>
|
||
namespace. [NB: this is the default, and is the same as
|
||
<code class="option">--enable-cheaders=c_global</code>]
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/c_std</code></span></dt><dd>
|

Headers intended to include standard C headers

already in namespace std, and put select names into the <code class="code">std::</code>
|
||
namespace. [NB: this is the same as
|
||
<code class="option">--enable-cheaders=c_std</code>]
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/bits</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Files included by standard headers and by other files in
|
||
the bits directory.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/backward</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Headers provided for backward compatibility, such as
|
||
<code class="filename"><backward/hash_map></code>.
|
||
They are not used in this library.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">include/ext</code></span></dt><dd>
|

Headers that define extensions to the standard library. No
|
||
standard header refers to any of them, in theory (there are some
|
||
exceptions).
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term">
|

|

<code class="filename">include/parallel</code>, and
|

<code class="filename">include/profile</code>

</span></dt><dd>

Headers that implement the Debug Mode, Parallel Mode, and Profile Mode
|
||
extensions.
|
||
</dd></dl></div></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">scripts</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Scripts that are used during the configure, build, make, or test
|
||
process.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">src</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Files that are used in constructing the library, but are not
|
||
installed.
|

|
||
<div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">src/c++98</code></span></dt><dd>

Source files compiled using <code class="option">-std=gnu++11</code>.
|

</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">src/filesystem</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Source files for the Filesystem TS.
|
||
</dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">src/shared</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Source code included by other files under both
|
||
<code class="filename">src/c++98</code> and
|
||
<code class="filename">src/c++11</code></dd></dl></div></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">testsuites/[backward, demangle, ext, performance, thread, 17_* to 30_*]</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Test programs are here, and may be used to begin to exercise the
|
||
library. Support for "make check" and "make check-install" is
|
||
complete, and runs through all the subdirectories here when this
|
||
command is issued from the build directory. Please note that
|
||
"make check" requires DejaGnu 1.4 or later to be installed,
|
||
or for extra <a class="link" href="test.html#test.run.permutations" title="Permutations">permutations</a>
|
||
DejaGnu 1.5.3 or later.
|
||
</dd></dl></div><p>
|
||
Other subdirectories contain variant versions of certain files
|
||
that are meant to be copied or linked by the configure script.
|
||
Currently these are:
|
||
</p><div class="literallayout"><p><code class="filename">config/abi</code><br />
|
||
<code class="filename">config/allocator</code><br />
|
||
<code class="filename">config/cpu</code><br />
|
||
<code class="filename">config/io</code><br />
|
||
<code class="filename">config/locale</code><br />
|
||
<code class="filename">config/os</code><br />
|
||
</p></div><p>
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
In addition, a subdirectory holds the convenience library libsupc++.
|
||
</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><code class="filename">libsupc++</code></span></dt><dd>
|
||
Contains the runtime library for C++, including exception
|
||
handling and memory allocation and deallocation, RTTI, terminate
|
||
handlers, etc.
|
||
</dd></dl></div><p>
|
||
Note that glibc also has a <code class="filename">bits/</code>
|
||
subdirectory. We need to be careful not to collide with names in its
|
||
<code class="filename">bits/</code> directory. For example
|
||
<code class="filename"><bits/std_mutex.h></code> has to be
|
||
renamed from <code class="filename"><bits/mutex.h></code>.
|
||
Another solution would be to rename <code class="filename">bits</code>
|
||
to (e.g.) <code class="filename">cppbits</code>.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
In files throughout the system, lines marked with an "XXX" indicate
|
||
a bug or incompletely-implemented feature. Lines marked "XXX MT"
|
||
indicate a place that may require attention for multi-thread safety.
