uBlink

Blink Protocol in C.

Highlights

• Hand coded schema parser and lexer
• Compact form encode/decode primitives
• Requires malloc but this can be a simple linear allocator
• User configurable IO streams
• Tests

Integrating With Your Project

Example makefile snippet:

INCLUDES += $(DIR_UBLINK)/include

VPATH += $(DIR_UBLINK)/src

SRC += $(wildcard $(DIR_UBLINK)/src/*.c)

OBJECTS += $(SRC:.c=.o)

Add #include "ublink.h" to source files that use the UBlink API.

Compile Time Options

The following options can be defined at compile time.

# remove asserts (default: not defined)
DEFINES += -DNDEBUG

# include a file before BLINK_ERROR and BLINK_DEBUG are defined (default: not defined)
DEFINES += -DBLINK_DEBUG_INCLUDE='#include <ruby.h>'

# remove all BLINK_DEBUG() and BLINK_ERROR() messages from code (default: not defined)
DEFINES += -DBLINK_NO_DEBUG_MESSAGE

# define your own BLINK_DEBUG() macro (default: defined as shown)
DEFINES += -DBLINK_DEBUG(...)='do{fprintf(stderr, __VA_ARGS__);fprintf(stderr, "\n");}while(0);'

# define your own BLINK_ERROR() macro (default: defined as shown)
DEFINES += -DBLINK_ERROR(...)='do{fprintf(stderr, __VA_ARGS__);fprintf(stderr, "\n");}while(0);'

# define the largest literal or name that can be handled by the lexer (default: 100)
DEFINES += -DBLINK_TOKEN_MAX_SIZE=100

# redefine the prefix (default: BLINK_)
# example: remove the prefix entirely
DEFINES += -DBLINK_
