3New users may wish to point their web browsers to the file documentation.html
4in the 'docs/html' subdirectory. It contains brief building instructions and
5notes on how to configure the library in interesting ways.

11This directory contains the files needed to create [a still broken
12subset of] an ISO Standard C++ Library.
13
14It has subdirectories:
15
89e37ad7
BK
16 docs
17 Files in HTML and text format that document usage, quirks of the
18 implementation, and contributor checklists.
19
20 include/bits
b2dad0e3
BK
21 Files included by standard headers and by other files in
22 the bits directory. Includes a set of files bits/std_xxxx.h
23 that implement the standard headers <xxxx>.
24
89e37ad7 25 include/std
b2dad0e3 26 Files meant to be found by #include <name> directives in
69bcf124 27 standard-conforming user programs.
b2dad0e3 28
89e37ad7 29 include/ext
b2dad0e3
BK
30 Headers that define extensions to the standard library. No
31 standard header refers to any of them.
32
89e37ad7 33 include/backward
b2dad0e3
BK
34 Headers provided for backward compatibility, such as <iostream.h>.
35 They are not used in this library.
36
8d66b99a
BK
37 include/c
38 Headers intended to directly include standard C headers.
39 [NB: this can be enabled via --enable-cheaders=c]
40
41 include/c_std
42 Headers intended to include standard C headers, and put select
43 names into the std:: namespace.
44 [NB: this is the default, and is the same as --enable-cheaders=c_std]
45
69bcf124
BK
46 include/c_shadow
47 Headers intended to shadow standard C headers provided by an
48 underlying OS or C library, and other headers depended on directly
49 by C++ headers (e.g. unistd.h). These are meant to wrap the names
50 defined there into the _C_legacy namespace.
51 [NB: this can be enabled via --enable-cheaders=c_shadow]

53 src
54 Files that are used in constructing the library, but are not
55 installed.
56
57 testsuites/17_* to 27_*
58 Test programs are here, and may be used to begin to exercise the
59 library. Support for "make check" and "make check-install" is
60 complete, and runs through all the subdirectories here when this
52b55e7d
PE
61 command is issued from the build directory. Please note that
62 "make check" requires DejaGNU 1.4 or later to be installed. Please
63 note that "make check-script" calls the script mkcheck, which
64 requires bash, and which may need the paths to bash adjusted to
65 work properly, as /bin/bash is assumed.

67Other subdirectories contain variant versions of certain files
68that are meant to be copied or linked by the configure script.
69Currently these are:
70
89e37ad7
BK
71 config/cpu
72 config/os
69bcf124
BK
73 config/io
74 config/locale

75
76Files needed only to construct the library, but not installed,
77are in src/. Files to be copied as part of an installation are
78all found in the subdirectories mentioned above. (A configure
79script may link files from another directory into one of these.)

81Note that glibc also has a bits/ subdirectory. We will either
82need to be careful not to collide with names in its bits/
83directory; or rename bits to (e.g.) cppbits/.

85In files throughout the system, lines marked with an "XXX" indicate
86a bug or incompletely-implemented feature. Lines marked "XXX MT"
87indicate a place that may require attention for multi-thread safety.
