Example usage

#include "gsl-lite.h"

using namespace gsl;

int * use( not_null<int *> p ) 
{
    // use p knowing it's not nullptr, NULL or 0.
    
    return p;
}

struct Widget
{
    Widget() : owned_ptr( new int(42) ) {}
    ~Widget() { delete owned_ptr; }

    void work() { non_owned_ptr = use( owned_ptr ); }
    
    owner<int *> owned_ptr;	// if alias template support
//  Owner(int *) owned_ptr;	// C++98 up
    int * non_owned_ptr;

In a nutshell

gsl-lite is a single-file header-only variant of Microsoft's implementation of the Guideline Support Library (GSL) adapted for C++98, C++03. It should also work when compiled as C++11, C++14.

The Guideline Support Library (GSL) contains functions and types that are suggested for use by the C++ Core Guidelines maintained by the Standard C++ Foundation. The library includes types like owner<>, not_null<>, span<>, string_span and others.

gsl-lite recognizes when it is compiled for the CUDA platform and decorates functions (methods) with __host__ and __device__. See also section API macro.

License

gsl-lite uses the MIT license.

Dependencies

gsl-lite has no other dependencies than the C++ standard library.

Installation

gsl-lite is a single-file header-only library. Put gsl-lite.h in the include folder directly into the project source tree or somewhere reachable from your project.

Synopsis

Contents

API macro

-Dgsl_api=""
Functions (methods) are decorated with gsl_api. At default gsl_api is defined empty for non-CUDA platforms and __host__ __device__ for the CUDA platform. Define this macro to specify your own function decoration.

Feature selection macros

-Dgsl_FEATURE_HAVE_IMPLICIT_MACRO=1
Define this macro to 0 to omit the implicit macro. Default is 1.

-Dgsl_FEATURE_HAVE_OWNER_MACRO=1
At default macro Owner() is defined for all C++ versions. This may be useful to transition from a compiler that doesn't provide alias templates to one that does. Define this macro to 0 to omit the Owner() macro. Default is 1.

-Dgsl_FEATURE_EXPERIMENTAL_RETURN_GUARD=0
Provide experimental types final_act_return and final_act_error and convenience functions on_return() and on_error(). Default is 0.

Contract violation response macros

gsl-lite provides contract violation response control as suggested in proposal N4415.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_LEVEL_ON
Define this macro to include both Expects and Ensures in the code. This is the default case.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_LEVEL_OFF
Define this macro to exclude both Expects and Ensures from the code.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_LEVEL_EXPECTS_ONLY
Define this macro to include Expects in the code and exclude Ensures from the code.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_LEVEL_ENSURES_ONLY
Define this macro to exclude Expects from the code and include Ensures in the code.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_VIOLATION_TERMINATES
Define this macro to call std::terminate() on a GSL contract violation in Expects, Ensures and narrow. This is the default case.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_VIOLATION_THROWS
Define this macro to throw a std::runtime_exception-derived exception gsl::fail_fast instead of calling std::terminate() on a GSL contract violation in Expects, Ensures and throw a std::exception-derived exception narrowing_error on discarding information in narrow.

Microsoft GSL compatibility macros

-DGSL_UNENFORCED_ON_CONTRACT_VIOLATION
Equivalent to -Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_LEVEL_OFF.

-DGSL_THROW_ON_CONTRACT_VIOLATION
Equivalent to -Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_VIOLATION_THROWS.

-DGSL_TERMINATE_ON_CONTRACT_VIOLATION
Equivalent to -Dgsl_CONFIG_CONTRACT_VIOLATION_TERMINATES.

Other configuration macros

-Dgsl_CONFIG_SPAN_INDEX_TYPE=size_t Define this macro to the type to use for indices in span and basic_string_span. Microsoft's GSL uses std::ptrdiff_t. Default for gsl lite is size_t.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_ALLOWS_NONSTRICT_SPAN_COMPARISON=1
Define this macro to 0 to omit the ability to compare spans of different types, e.g. of different const-volatile-ness. To be able to compare a string_span with a cstring_span, non-strict span comparison must be available. Default is 1.

-Dgsl_CONFIG_ALLOWS_UNCONSTRAINED_SPAN_CONTAINER_CTOR=0
Define this macro to 1 to add the unconstrained span constructor for containers for pre-C++11 compilers that cannot constrain the constructor. This constructor may prove too greedy and interfere with other constructors. Default is 0.

Note: an alternative is to use the constructor tagged with_container: span<value_type> s(with_container, cont).

-Dgsl_CONFIG_CONFIRMS_COMPILATION_ERRORS=0
Define this macro to 1 to experience the by-design compile-time errors of the GSL components in the test suite. Default is 0.

Building the tests

To build the tests you need:

The lest test framework is included in the test folder.

The following steps assume that the GSL Lite source code has been cloned into a directory named c:\gsl-lite.

  1. Create a directory for the build outputs for a particular architecture.
    Here we use c:\gsl-lite\build-win-x86-vc10.

     cd c:\gsl-lite
     md build-win-x86-vc10
     cd build-win-x86-vc10
    
  2. Configure CMake to use the compiler of your choice (run cmake --help for a list).

     cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" ..
    
  3. Build the test suite in the Debug configuration (alternatively use Release).

     cmake --build . --config Debug
    
  4. Run the test suite.

     ctest -V -C Debug
    

All tests should pass, indicating your platform is supported and you are ready to use gsl-lite. See the table with supported types and functions.

Appendix

A.1 Extract Boost smart pointers

To obtain a subset of Boost only containing the smart pointers, use the bcp command like:

C:\Libraries\boost\boost_1_51>bin\bcp scoped_ptr.hpp shared_ptr.hpp weak_ptr.hpp make_shared.hpp C:\Libraries\boost-shared_ptr

The smart pointers of Boost 1.51 can be used with VC6.
