## About

plibsys is a cross-platform system C library with some helpful routines.
It has zero third-party dependencies and uses only native system calls.

## Features

plibsys gives you:

* Platform independent data types
* Threads 
* Mutexes
* Condition variables
* Read-write locks
* System-wide semaphores
* System-wide shared memory
* Optimized spinlock
* Atomic operations
* Socket support (UDP, TCP, SCTP) with IPv4 and IPv6
* Hash functions: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2, SHA-3, GOST (R 34.11-94)
* Binary trees: BST, red-black, AVL
* INI file parser
* High resolution time profiler
* Files and directories
* Shared library loading
* Useful routines for linked lists, strings, hash tables
* Macros for CPU architecture, OS and compiler detection
* Macros for variable arguments

To achieve maximum native performance on each platform several implementation models are used:

* Threading models: POSIX, Solaris, OS/2, BeOS, AtheOS, AmigaOS and Win32
* IPC models: POSIX, System V, OS/2, AmigaOS and Win32
* Time profiler models: POSIX, Solaris, Mach, OS/2, BeOS, AmigaOS, Win32 and generic
* Directory iterating models: POSIX, OS/2 and Win32
* Shared library loading models: POSIX, HP-UX, OS/2, BeOS, AmigaOS and Win32
* Atomic operations models: sync, C11, DECC, Win32 and simulated
* Sockets: BSD with Win32 support

## Platforms

plibsys is a cross-platform, highly portable library, it is fully covered
with unit tests and was tested on the following desktop platforms:

* GNU/Linux
* macOS
* Windows
* Cygwin, MSYS
* FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
* DragonFlyBSD
* Solaris
* AIX
* HP-UX
* Tru64
* OpenVMS
* OS/2
* IRIX
* QNX Neutrino
* UnixWare 7
* SCO OpenServer 5
* Haiku
* Syllable
* BeOS
* AmigaOS

plibsys also supports the following mobile platforms:

* iOS, watchOS, tvOS
* Android
* BlackBerry 10

It should also work on other *nix systems with or without minimal efforts.
