Getting Started

Prerequisites

• A C++17 (or later) compliant compiler (e.g., GCC, Clang, MSVC).
• Standard C++ Library with threading support (<thread>, <future>, <mutex>, <condition_variable>).

Installation

cpp-asyncworker is a header-only library. To use it, simply copy the cppasyncworker.hpp file into your project’s include directory.

cp cppasyncworker.hpp /path/to/your/project/include/

Then, include it in your C++ files:

#include "cppasyncworker.hpp"

There are no external dependencies or build steps required.

CMake Integration

If you are using CMake, you can easily integrate cpp-asyncworker into your project using FetchContent:

include(FetchContent)
FetchContent_Declare(
    cppasyncworker
    GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/jonoton/cpp-asyncworker.git
    GIT_TAG        main # Or a specific tag
)
FetchContent_MakeAvailable(cppasyncworker)

# Link to your target
target_link_libraries(your_target PRIVATE cppasyncworker::cppasyncworker)

Alternatively, you can clone the repository and use add_subdirectory():

add_subdirectory(path/to/cpp-asyncworker)
target_link_libraries(your_target PRIVATE cppasyncworker::cppasyncworker)
