How To Install libHX on Fedora 34
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install libHX on Fedora 34.
What is libHX
libHX is a C library (with some C++ bindings available) that provides data structures and functions commonly needed, such as maps, deques, linked lists, string formatting and autoresizing, option and config file parsing, type checking casts and more. libHX aids in quickly writing up C and C++ data processing programs, by consolidating tasks that often happen to be open-coded, such as (simple) config file reading, option parsing, directory traversal, and others, into a library. The focus is on reducing the amount of time (and secondarily, the amount of code) a developer has to spend for otherwise implementing such. libHX 3.22 14.fc34 x86_64 67 k libHX-3.22-14.fc34.src.rpm fedora Useful collection of routines for C and C++ programming http LGPLv2 or LGPLv3 libHX is a C library (with some C++ bindings available) that provides data structures and functions commonly needed, such as maps, deques, linked lists, string formatting and autoresizing, option and config file parsing, type checking casts and more. libHX aids in quickly writing up C and C++ data processing programs, by consolidating tasks that often happen to be open-coded, such as (simple) config file reading, option parsing, directory traversal, and others, into a library.
