## Introduction ([中文](/README_zh.md))

TBOX is a glib-like cross-platform C library that is simple to use yet powerful in nature.

The project focuses on making C development easier and provides many modules (.e.g stream, coroutine, regex, container, algorithm ...), 
so that any developer can quickly pick it up and enjoy the productivity boost when developing in C language.

It supports the following platforms: Windows, Macosx, Linux, Android, iOS, *BSD and etc.

And it provides many compiling options using [xmake](https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake):

* Release: Disable debug information, assertion, memory checking and enable optimization.
* Debug: Enable debug information, assertion, memory checking and disable optimization.
* Small: Disable all extensional modules and enable space optimization.
* Micro: compiling micro library (~64K) for the embed system.

## Features

#### The stream library

- Supports file, data, http and socket source
- Supports the stream filter for gzip, charset and...
- Implements stream transfer
- Implements the static buffer stream for parsing data
- Supports coroutine and implements asynchronous operation

#### The coroutine library

- Provides high-performance coroutine switch

#### The memory library

- Implements some memory pools for optimizing memory
- Supports fast memory error detecting. it can detect the following types of bugs for the debug mode:
  - out-of-bounds accesses to heap and globals
  - use-after-free
  - double-free, invalid free
  - memory leaks

#### The container library

- Implements hash table, single list, double list, vector, stack, queue
  and min/max heap. Supports iterator mode for algorithm

#### The algorithm library

- Uses the iterator mode
- Implements find, binary find and reverse find algorithm
- Implements sort, bubble sort, quick sort, heap sort and insert sort algorithm
- Implements count, walk items, reverse walk items, for_all and rfor_all

#### The network library

- Implements dns(cached)
- Implements ssl(openssl, polarssl, mbedtls)
- Implements http
- Implements cookies
- Supports ipv4, ipv6
- Supports coroutine

#### The platform library

- Implements timer, fast and low precision timer
- Implements atomic and atomic64 operation
- Implements spinlock, mutex, event, semaphore, thread and thread pool 
- Implements file, socket operation
- Implements poller using epoll, poll, select, kqueue ...
- Implements switch context interfaces for coroutine

#### The charset library

- Supports utf8, utf16, gbk, gb2312, uc2 and uc4
- Supports big endian and little endian mode

#### The zip library

- Supports gzip, zlibraw, zlib formats using the zlib library if exists
- Implements lzsw, lz77 and rlc algorithm

#### The utils library

- Implements base32, base64 encoder and decoder
- Implements assert and trace output for the debug mode
- Implements bits operation for parsing u8, u16, u32, u64 data

#### The math library

- Implements random generator
- Implements fast fixed-point calculation, Supports 6-bits, 16-bits, 30-bits fixed-point number

#### The libc library

- Implements lightweight libc library interfaces, the interface name contains `tb_xxx` prefix for avoiding conflict
- Implements strixxx strrxxx wcsixxx wcsrxxx interface extension
- Optimizes some frequently-used interface, .e.g. memset, memcpy, strcpy ... 
- Implements `memset_u16`, `memset_u32`, `memset_u64` extension interfaces

#### The libm library

- Implements lightweight libm library interfaces, the interface name contains `tb_xxx` prefix for avoiding conflict
- Supports float and double type

#### The regex library

- Supports match and replace
- Supports global/multiline/caseless mode
- Uses pcre, pcre2 and posix regex modules

#### The hash library

- Implements crc32, adler32, md5 and sha1 hash algorithm
- Implements some string hash algorithms (.e.g bkdr, fnv32, fnv64, sdbm, djb2, rshash, aphash ...)
- Implements uuid generator

```c
#include "tbox/tbox.h"

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    // init tbox
    if (!tb_init(tb_null, tb_null)) return 0;

// trace
    tb_trace_i("hello tbox");

// init vector
    tb_vector_ref_t vector = tb_vector_init(0, tb_element_cstr(tb_true));
    if (vector)
    {
        // insert item
        tb_vector_insert_tail(vector, "hello");
        tb_vector_insert_tail(vector, "tbox");

// dump all items
        tb_for_all (tb_char_t const*, cstr, vector)
        {
            // trace
            tb_trace_i("%s", cstr);
        }

// exit vector
        tb_vector_exit(vector);
    }

// init stream
    tb_stream_ref_t stream = tb_stream_init_from_url("http://www.xxx.com/file.txt");
    if (stream)
    {
        // open stream
        if (tb_stream_open(stream))
        {
            // read line
            tb_long_t size = 0;
            tb_char_t line[TB_STREAM_BLOCK_MAXN];
            while ((size = tb_stream_bread_line(stream, line, sizeof(line))) >= 0)
