Feature

  • Bootstrapping
    • CMake is used to create BuildCC
    • We now create a BuildCC executable that creates BuildCC
    • BuildCC bootstrap executable through CMake (Static Libraries during linkage)
    • BuildCC bootstrap executable through CMake (Dynamic Libraries during linkage)
    • BuildCC bootstrap executable through BuildCC bootstrap executable (similar to the CMake executable)
  • C++20 module support
    • Understand flags
    • Understand procedure for GCC, MSVC and Clang
  • Plugin - BuildCCFind
    • Find executable
    • Find toolchain
  • Plugin - ClangFormat
  • Plugin - Graph Visualizer

User QOL

  • Append Setter APIs for Target

Developer Tools

  • Doxygen
    • Online documentation (read the docs)
    • Github pages
  • CI/CD
    • Linux
      • GCC
      • Clang
    • Windows
      • MSVC
      • Clang
      • MinGW
    • MacOS
  • Codacy

Optimization

  • Speed vs Memory considerations
    • Currently the project favours speed over memory usage
  • std::string vs std::string_view vs const char * usage
    • NOTE, We cannot convert between std::string_view and const char * which makes it harder to use std::string_view for certain APIs

Tests

  • Improve Branch Coverage
  • Profiling BuildCC using Tracy
  • Speed comparison between CMake and BuildCC (Release)
  • Speed profiling subprocess vs std::system with gprof and qcachegrind
    • NOTE, Since we have Taskflow for parallel programming, we do not need to construct a multi-threaded subprocess.
    • Subprocess should typically replicate std::system functionality while offering better security.

Examples and Demos

  • Cross compiling
  • Debugging using VSCode
  • Debugging using GDB
