MCL milix Class Library Version 1.1 Copyright (c) 1999-2003 by milix. All rights reserved. (see 'LICENCE') DESCRIPTION ~~~~~~~~~~~ MCL is a set of usefull C++ classes and templates: - Linear space and time balanced binary search trees - Very fast and efficient inlined templates for doubly-linked lists, stacks and queues - BLOWFISH encryption - MD5 digest algorithm - Fast numerical and boolean expression evaluator that supports memory storage (variables) - Text tokenizer (can be used also as an .INI creator and reader) - String translation utility function for greek codepages 737, 869, 1253, ISO 8859-7 and latin-greek - Hex string to unsigned short, unsigned int and unsigned long converstion - Date/time manipulation and string formatting, eastern calculation, etc LICENCE ~~~~~~~ The library is published under the MIT licence: Copyright (c) 1999-2003 Anastasios Milikas ("milix") Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

COMPILING ~~~~~~~~~ Supported compilers: - Visual C++ 6 - Intel Compiler 6 (Win32) - Intel Compiler 7 (Linux) - GCC 2.95 (Linux and Win32-mingw) - GCC 3.2 (Linux and Win32-mingw) - Borland C++ Builder 5.5 (command line tools) Supported environments: - Visual Studio 6 - Dev-C++ 4.9.7 or later - make (MinGW) To compile the library: For Dev-C++: 1. Enter the src/lib 2. Load the project file mcl.dev 3. Build. For Visual Studio 1. Enter the src/lib/vc6 2. Load the workspace file mcl.dws 3. Batch build For command line (make) 1. Enter the src/lib 2. type 'make -f ' or 'make /f makefile.bc5' for BC++ 5.5) The library will be created in the 'lib' directory. DEMOS/TESTS ~~~~~~~~~~~ Under the directory 'test' exists some demos for using the MCL library. Currently you can find VS6 and Dev-C++ projects but you can tweak the 'Makefile.win' for other compilers (in the way of lib/Makefile).
