Arene Base

Introduction

Arene Base is a loosely-connected collection of low-level utility features for use in C++ programs. These include:

• back-ports of features from more recent C++ standards,
• data structures that do not require dynamic memory allocation
• other basic building block data structures
• low level type traits and functions
• string algorithms
• facilities to simplify safe usage of pointers
• a portable filesystem API
• other supporting library facilities

Arene Base also provides a partial implementation of the C++ Standard Library for use on platforms that do not have a suitable C++ Standard Library provided by the toolchain.
