# The LLVM libc header generation system

|

LLVM libc uses a header generation scheme to generate public as well as internal
|
||||
header files. This directory contains the implementation of the header generator
|

which drives this header generation scheme.

# The LLVM libc unit test framework
|
||||
|
||||
This directory contains a lightweight implementation of a
|
||||
[gtest](https://github.com/google/googletest) like unit test framework for LLVM
|
||||
libc.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why not gtest?
|
||||
|
||||
While gtest is great, featureful and time tested, it uses the C and C++
|
||||
standard libraries. Hence, using it to test LLVM libc (which is also an
|
||||
implementation of the C standard libraries) causes various kinds of
|
||||
mixup/conflict problems.
|
||||
|
||||
## How is it different from gtest?
|
||||
|
||||
LLVM libc's unit test framework is much less featureful as compared to gtest.
|
||||
But, what is available strives to be exactly like gtest.
|
||||
|
||||
## Will it be made as featurful as gtest in future?
|
||||
|
||||
It is not clear if LLVM libc needs/will need every feature of gtest. We only
|
||||
intend to extend it on an _as needed_ basis. Hence, it might never be as
|
||||
featureful as gtest.
