Export of internal Abseil changes -- a9ac6567c0933d786d68c10011e3f3ff9deedf89 by Greg Falcon <gfalcon@google.com>: Add absl::FunctionRef, a type analogous to the proposed C++23 std::function_ref. Like std::function, FunctionRef can be used to type-erase any callable (invokable) object. However, FunctionRef works by reference: it does not store a copy of the type-erased object. If the wrapped object is destroyed before the FunctionRef, the reference becomes dangling. FunctionRef relates to std::function in much the same way that string_view relates to std::string. Because of these limitations, FunctionRef is best used only as a function argument type, and only where the function will be invoked immediately (rather than saved for later use). When `const std::function<...>&` is used in this way, `absl::FunctionRef<...>` is a better-performing replacement.

PiperOrigin-RevId: 275420901 -- 08d48ac004eba57cf2f1ada827181a2995f74807 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Avoid applying the workaround for MSVC's static initialization problems when using clang-cl. PiperOrigin-RevId: 275366326 -- 40be82bd2b34670b5458c0a72a0475086153c2d6 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>: Added comments to SimpleAtof()/SimpleAtod() that clarify that they always use the "C" locale, unlike the standard functions strtod() and strtof() referenced now in the comments. PiperOrigin-RevId: 275355815 -- 086779dacb3f6f2b3ab59947e94e79046bdb1fe1 by Jorg Brown <jorg@google.com>: Move the hex conversion table used by escaping.cc into numbers.h so that other parts of Abseil can more efficiently access it.

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, including Abseil's unordered “Swiss table” containers.debugging debugging library contains code useful for enabling leak checks, and stacktrace and symbolization utilities.hash hash library contains the hashing framework and default hash functor implementations for hashable types in Abseil.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.utility utility library contains utility and helper code.The Abseil C++ library is licensed under the terms of the Apache license. See LICENSE for more information.
