This directory contains the “core” part of the TensorFlow Lite runtime library. The header files in this tensorflow/lite/core/ directory fall into several categories.

1. Public API headers, in the api subdirectory tensorflow/lite/core/api/

   These are in addition to the other public API headers in tensorflow/lite/.

   For example:

   • tensorflow/lite/core/api/error_reporter.h
   • tensorflow/lite/core/api/op_resolver.h

2. Private headers that define public API types and functions. These headers are each #included from a corresponding public “shim” header in tensorflow/lite/ that forwards to the private header.

   For example:

   • tensorflow/lite/core/interpreter.h is a private header file that is included from the public “shim” header file tensorflow/lite/interpeter.h.

   These private header files should be used as follows: #includes from .cc files in TF Lite itself that are implementing the TF Lite APIs should include the “core” TF Lite API headers. #includes from files that are just using the regular TF Lite APIs should include the regular public headers.

3. The header file tensorflow/lite/core/subgraph.h. This contains some experimental APIs.
