libbsl 0.9.1

libbsl (Basic System Library) is a powerful, easy to use and fully thread safe C++ template class library for frequently recurring (machine/OS oriented) programming problems.
All fundamental objects in libbsl are freely copyable and shareable between an arbitrary number of threads - e.g. reading from a shared io device from several concurrent threads is implicitly thread safe for the programmer without additional cost and knowledge.
An important goal in developing libbsl was to keep it simple and to enable even the inexperienced programmer to quickly write complex programs with the help of libbsl.
This goal is achieved by hiding most of the templates - and there are many - from the api by several reasonable typedefs.
On the other hand the generic template architecture of libbsl allows the more adept user to enhance (e.g. by the use of policy templates) or by combining libbsls classes to create new objects or user defined functionality.
Main features:
- crypto; cryptographic classes (AES, ElGamal etc.) mainly for secure network communication
- datetime; date, time and timer classes
- dso; dynamic loadable C++ objects which remain dynamic_castable after loading
- io; ile, directory, character devices etc. classes.
- io/net; tcp/udp ipv4 (secure) socket classes etc.
- ipc; program execution class, lightweight process class which enables you to design your own fine grained program logic by the use of freely configurable suspend an resume functions per process
- log; error handling and logging mechanisms via syslog, files etc.
- mime; mime type detection using ternary search trees
- options; command line options and environment setting classes
- thread; easy to use thread class, mutexes, barriers, transfer of program tasks to threads by the use of thread functors etc.
- types; type traits, type lists etc.
- util; memory management, factories, daemon class, functors, "switchless" intelligent state machine implementation, utf8 string class and much more
- values; parameter (pair of arbitrary values as text), tuple, variant etc.
