cdcontainers - data containers and data structures for C

Library of data containers and data structures for C programming language. The cdcontainers interface is similar to C ++ STL. The library contains the following data containers:

• cdc_array - dynamic array
• cdc_list - doubly linked list
• cdc_circular_array - circular array
• cdc_heap - binary heap
• cdc_binomial_heap - binomial heap
• cdc_pairing_heap - pairing heap
• cdc_hash_table - hash table with collisions resolved by chaining
• cdc_avl_tree - avl tree
• cdc_splay_tree - splay tree
• cdc_treap - сartesian tree

and following adapters:

• cdc_deque (Can work with: cdc_array, cdc_list, cdc_circular_array)
• cdc_stack (Can work with: cdc_array, cdc_list, cdc_circular_array)
• cdc_queue (Can work with: cdc_array, cdc_list, cdc_circular_array)
• cdc_priority_queue (Can work with: cdc_heap, cdc_binomial_heap, cdc_pairing_heap)
• cdc_map (Can work with: cdc_avl_tree, cdc_splay_tree, cdc_treap, cdc_hash_table)

Example:

#define CDC_USE_SHORT_NAMES  // for short names (functions and structs without prefix cdc_*)
#include <cdcontainers/cdc.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    array_t *array = NULL;

    if (array_ctor(&array, NULL) != CDC_STATUS_OK)
        /* error handling */;

    if (array_push_back(array, CDC_FROM_INT(8)) != CDC_STATUS_OK)
        /* error handling */;

    if (array_push_back(array, CDC_FROM_INT(2)) != CDC_STATUS_OK)
        /* error handling */;

    for (sizr_t i = 0; i < array_size(array); ++i)
        printf("%i\n", CDC_TO_INT(vector_get(v, i)));
        
    array_dtor(array);
}

Installation - Unix

To build and install cdcontainers from source, the following tools are needed:

• make
• cmake
• gcc (or your other favorite compiler with minimal support ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (C99) standard)
• cunit (for testing)

On Ubuntu or Debian, you can install them with:

$  sudo apt-get install cmake gcc make libcunit1-dev

To build and install cdstructures, do the following steps:

$ git clone https://github.com/maksimandrianov/cdcontainers
$ cd cdcontainers
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install

Hint on install location

By default, the package will be installed to /usr/local. However, on many platforms, /usr/local/lib is not part of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You can add it, but it may be easier to just install to /usr instead. To do this, invoke cmake as follows:

$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..

Testing

To build and run tests, do the following steps:

$ make tests
$ make check

Usage

You can find examples in the directory examples.

To run the example, compile and link against the cdcontainers library (libcdcontainers.a/.so). If you followed the build steps above, this library will be under the build directory you created.

# Example on linux after running the build steps above. Assumes the
# `cdcontainers` and `build` directories are under the current directory.
$ gcc examples/map.c -isystem include -Llib -lcdcontainers -o map

./map
