tcpppl

TC++PL (The C++ Programming Language 4th edition) exercises

Project uses Google Test framework:

https://code.google.com/p/googletest/

Make sure you have it installed and compiled on the system as a dynamic library. The instructions for OSX are below.

1. Create Environment variable that points to the source code and
   put it into .XXXrc file:

    export GTEST_DIR=/path/to/google/test/source/dir

2. Compile the Google Test code:

    clang++ -isystem ${GTEST_DIR}/include -I${GTEST_DIR} -pthread \
            -DGTEST_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY=1 \
            -c ${GTEST_DIR}/src/gtest-all.cc

3. Create a shared library for Google Test:

    clang++ -shared -W1,-soname,libgtest.so.1.7 -o libgtest.so.1.7 \
            gtest-all.o

4. Make sure path to library is searchable by the system. Setup
   appropriately DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH (or LD_LIBRARY_PATH for *nix systems)
   in the .XXXrc file:

    export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GTEST_DIR:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

5. Go to tcppl project and compile it with Makefile:

    for _opt in lib prog test; do make $_opt -j8; done

FOLDER STRUCTURE

Each exercise has implemented as a unique executable src/.cpp, e.g. for the exercise 7.6 the executable is src/7.6.cpp. The source file contains the exercise description.

Some parts of the exercises are either reusable, can be even referenced from another exercises, or just a good idea to keep OO concepts separate. In such cases accompaniying interface can be found in interface/.h, while implementation is available in src/.cc.

In the above example of exercise 7.6 additional two files exist:

interface/7.6.h 
src/7.6.cc

test folder contains short programs with tests of some code.
