Use _MSVC_LANG for some C++ dialect checks since MSVC doesn't
set __cplusplus accurately by default.

Remove flakes by not enforcing re-allocated pointers do never match original

Tests that do multiple updates could end up with the original allocated pointer on a 2nd resize, so the 'EqIfPrivate' should not assume that if we do 'not' have the capacity that all following relocations will never match the original. We only care about 'pointer unchanged if private and there is capacity', trying to establish 'pointer changed at some point due to re-allocation; is pointless.

Undo inline of small data copy in cord

This leads to a performance regression as the code is not inlined (absent hard FDO inputs), and there are no suitable tail call options.

Add final instrumentation for Cordz and remove 'old' cordz logic.

This change instruments the last cord function for cordz. It removes the 'old' functions: set_tree, replace_tree, UpdateCordzStatistics and RecordMetrics.

Extend the life of CordRep* if inside a snapshot

If a snapshot (potentially) includes the current CordzInfo, we need to extent the lifetime of the CordRep*, as the snapshot 'point in time' observation of the cord should ideally be preserved.

Instrument std::string consuming methods: ctor, operator=, Append and Prepend

This change moves the 'steal into CordRep' logic into a separate function so we can use it directly in the ctor, operator assign and append and prepend, allowing Cordz instrumentation with the proper method attributes.

The assign operator is implemented in AssignLargeString leaving the dispatch inlined in cord.h (which as a side effects also allows clean tail calls in the AssignLargeString method)

Abseil - C++ Common Libraries

The repository contains the Abseil C++ library code. Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ code (compliant to C++11) designed to augment the C++ standard library.

About Abseil

Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ library code designed to augment the C++ standard library. The Abseil library code is collected from Google's own C++ code base, has been extensively tested and used in production, and is the same code we depend on in our daily coding lives.

In some cases, Abseil provides pieces missing from the C++ standard; in others, Abseil provides alternatives to the standard for special needs we've found through usage in the Google code base. We denote those cases clearly within the library code we provide you.

Abseil is not meant to be a competitor to the standard library; we've just found that many of these utilities serve a purpose within our code base, and we now want to provide those resources to the C++ community as a whole.

Quickstart

If you want to just get started, make sure you at least run through the Abseil Quickstart. The Quickstart contains information about setting up your development environment, downloading the Abseil code, running tests, and getting a simple binary working.

Building Abseil

Bazel and CMake are the official build systems for Abseil.

See the quickstart for more information on building Abseil using the Bazel build system.

If you require CMake support, please check the CMake build instructions and CMake Quickstart.

Support

Abseil is officially supported on many platforms. See the Abseil platform support guide for details on supported operating systems, compilers, CPUs, etc.

Codemap

Abseil contains the following C++ library components:

  • base Abseil Fundamentals
    The base library contains initialization code and other code which all other Abseil code depends on. Code within base may not depend on any other code (other than the C++ standard library).
  • algorithm
    The algorithm library contains additions to the C++ <algorithm> library and container-based versions of such algorithms.
  • cleanup
    The cleanup library contains the control-flow-construct-like type absl::Cleanup which is used for executing a callback on scope exit.
  • container
    The container library contains additional STL-style containers, including Abseil's unordered “Swiss table” containers.
  • debugging
    The debugging library contains code useful for enabling leak checks, and stacktrace and symbolization utilities.
  • hash
    The hash library contains the hashing framework and default hash functor implementations for hashable types in Abseil.
  • memory
    The memory library contains C++11-compatible versions of std::make_unique() and related memory management facilities.
  • meta
    The meta library contains C++11-compatible versions of type checks available within C++14 and C++17 versions of the C++ <type_traits> library.
  • numeric
    The numeric library contains C++11-compatible 128-bit integers.
  • status
    The status contains abstractions for error handling, specifically absl::Status and absl::StatusOr<T>.
  • strings
    The strings library contains a variety of strings routines and utilities, including a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::string_view type.
  • synchronization
    The synchronization library contains concurrency primitives (Abseil's absl::Mutex class, an alternative to std::mutex) and a variety of synchronization abstractions.
  • time
    The time library contains abstractions for computing with absolute points in time, durations of time, and formatting and parsing time within time zones.
  • types
    The types library contains non-container utility types, like a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::optional type.
  • utility
    The utility library contains utility and helper code.

Releases

Abseil recommends users “live-at-head” (update to the latest commit from the master branch as often as possible). However, we realize this philosophy doesn't work for every project, so we also provide Long Term Support Releases to which we backport fixes for severe bugs. See our release management document for more details.
