Export of internal Abseil changes. -- f4e870453d02106c2685e0461816469a4704ad25 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Expose TimeZone::NextTransition() and PrevTransition() now that we have absl::CivilSecond support in time.h. Note that these are for informational purposes only. General time code should not care when offset changes occur. PiperOrigin-RevId: 217177292 -- cfadd275c7333f7c27c4d682b9d167010d874e69 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Import of CCTZ from GitHub. PiperOrigin-RevId: 217153577 -- 6ff5b8c61a1239b9c0478a7c62bcd2844b310307 by Jon Cohen <cohenjon@google.com>: Fix code examples in hash_testing.h. Includes random clang-format changes. PiperOrigin-RevId: 216898995 -- de124129d27f4627dabe193a10bf106a11783fba by Shaindel Schwartz <shaindel@google.com>: Add contribution guidelines describing how we decide whether to include an API in Abseil.

The repository contains the Abseil C++ library code. Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ code (compliant to C++11) designed to augment the C++ standard library.
Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ library code designed to augment the C++ standard library. The Abseil library code is collected from Google's own C++ code base, has been extensively tested and used in production, and is the same code we depend on in our daily coding lives.
In some cases, Abseil provides pieces missing from the C++ standard; in others, Abseil provides alternatives to the standard for special needs we've found through usage in the Google code base. We denote those cases clearly within the library code we provide you.
Abseil is not meant to be a competitor to the standard library; we've just found that many of these utilities serve a purpose within our code base, and we now want to provide those resources to the C++ community as a whole.
If you want to just get started, make sure you at least run through the Abseil Quickstart. The Quickstart contains information about setting up your development environment, downloading the Abseil code, running tests, and getting a simple binary working.
Bazel is the official build system for Abseil, which is supported on most major platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS, for example) and compilers. See the quickstart for more information on building Abseil using the Bazel build system.
If you require CMake support, please check the CMake build instructions.
Abseil contains the following C++ library components:
base Abseil Fundamentals base library contains initialization code and other code which all other Abseil code depends on. Code within base may not depend on any other code (other than the C++ standard library).algorithm algorithm library contains additions to the C++ <algorithm> library and container-based versions of such algorithms.container container library contains additional STL-style containers.debugging debugging library contains code useful for enabling leak checks. Future updates will add stacktrace and symbolization utilities.memory memory library contains C++11-compatible versions of std::make_unique() and related memory management facilities.meta meta library contains C++11-compatible versions of type checks available within C++14 and C++17 versions of the C++ <type_traits> library.numeric numeric library contains C++11-compatible 128-bit integers.strings strings library contains a variety of strings routines and utilities, including a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::string_view type.synchronization synchronization library contains concurrency primitives (Abseil's absl::Mutex class, an alternative to std::mutex) and a variety of synchronization abstractions.time time library contains abstractions for computing with absolute points in time, durations of time, and formatting and parsing time within time zones.types types library contains non-container utility types, like a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::optional type.The Abseil C++ library is licensed under the terms of the Apache license. See LICENSE for more information.
