Detailed Description

Cross-platforms portable base definitions for the TSDuck project.

This header file shall be included by all C++ compilation units in the TSDuck project. It provides common portable definitions. This file shall always be included first, before system headers and other TSDuck headers.

Important: This file shall be updated each time a new platform is used (processor, compiler, operating system). When recompiling this header on a new platform, many errors are generated (explicit #error directives). These errors will guide you on the required additions for the new platform.

Platform definitions

This header file conditionally defines several symbols (macros) which describe the platform (processor, compiler, operating system). These symbols can be used for conditional compilation.

The following environments are described:

Compiler: See TS_GCC, TS_MSC, etc.
Operating system: See TS_LINUX, TS_WINDOWS, etc.
Processor architecture: See TS_I386, TS_X86_64, etc.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ TS_LLVM

#define TS_LLVM

Defined when the compiler is LLVM (clang).

In that case, TS_GCC is also defined since LLVM is reasonably compatible with GCC.

◆ TS_MSC

#define TS_MSC

Defined when the compiler is Microsoft C/C++, the default compiler in the Microsoft Visual Studio environment.

Also used on command line and batch file as the cl command.

◆ TS_GCC_VERSION

#define TS_GCC_VERSION

GCC version, encoded as an integer.

Example: 40801 for GCC 4.8.1. Undefined when the compiler is not GCC or its version is unknown.

◆ TS_CPLUSPLUS

#define TS_CPLUSPLUS

Level of C++ language, same as predefined __cplusplus, but safe with MSVC.

Microsoft-specific ways of signaling the language level: With Visual Studio 2017, there are flags such as /std:c++14 to specify the level of language. However, __cplusplus is still set to 199711L. It is unclear if this is a bug or if __cplusplus is not set because the C++11/14/17 standards all not super-completely implemented. The Microsoft-specific symbol _MSVC_LANG is defined to describe a "good-enough" level of standard which is fine for us.

The current version of TSDuck requires C++20 at least (GCC 11, clang 5, Visual Studio 2017 15.8).

◆ TS_UNIX

#define TS_UNIX

Defined when compiled for any flavor of UNIX target platforms.

This symbol comes in addition to the specific symbol for the target platform (TS_LINUX, etc.)

◆ TSDUCK_STATIC_PLUGINS

#define TSDUCK_STATIC_PLUGINS

User-defined macro to enable static linking of plugins.

If TSDUCK_STATIC_PLUGINS is defined, typically on the compilation command line, all plugins are linked statically. Dynamic loading of plugins is disabled.

◆ TSDUCK_STATIC_LIBRARY

#define TSDUCK_STATIC_LIBRARY

Applications which link against the TSDuck static library.

Applications which link against the TSDuck static library should define TSDUCK_STATIC_LIBRARY. This symbol can be used to force external references.

TSDUCK_STATIC_LIBRARY enforces TSDUCK_STATIC_PLUGINS.

◆ TSDUCK_STATIC

#define TSDUCK_STATIC

User-defined macro to enable full static linking.

If TSDUCK_STATIC is defined, typically on the compilation command line, the code is compiled and linked statically, including system libraries. On Linux, this is not recommended since a few features such as IP address resolution are disabled.

TSDUCK_STATIC enforces TSDUCK_STATIC_LIBRARY and TSDUCK_STATIC_PLUGINS.

◆ TS_STRINGIFY

#define TS_STRINGIFY ( x )

This macro transforms the value of a macro parameter into the equivalent string literal.

This is a very specific macro. It is typically used only inside the definition of another macro. It is similar to the # token in the preprocessor but has a slightly different effect. The # token transforms the text of a macro parameter into a string while TS_STRINGIFY transforms the value of a macro parameter into a string, after all preprocessing substitutions.

The following example illustrates the difference between the # token and TS_STRINGIFY:

#define P1(v) printf("#parameter:   %s = %d\n", #v, v)
#define P2(v) printf("TS_STRINGIFY: %s = %d\n", TS_STRINGIFY(v), v)
....
#define X 1
P1(X);
P2(X);

This will print:

#parameter: X = 1

TS_STRINGIFY: 1 = 1

TS_STRINGIFY

#define TS_STRINGIFY(x)

This macro transforms the value of a macro parameter into the equivalent string literal.

Definition tsPlatform.h:514

◆ TS_USTRINGIFY

#define TS_USTRINGIFY ( x )

This macro transforms the value of a macro parameter into the equivalent 16-bit Unicode string literal.

This macro is equivalent to TS_STRINGIFY() except that the string literal is of the for u"..." instead of "..."

See also: TS_STRINGIFY()

◆ TS_UNIQUE_NAME

#define TS_UNIQUE_NAME ( prefix )

This macro generates a unique name based on the source line number.

It is typically used in more complex macro definitions. These complex macros should be defined on one single line. All invocations of TS_UNIQUE_NAME generate the same symbol when placed one the same source line.

Parameters

prefix Prefix for the symbol. Using different prefixes, several distinct unique identifiers can be used on the same line.

◆ TS_PRAGMA

#define TS_PRAGMA ( directive )

Helper macro for the C++11 keyword _Pragma.

With the C++11 standard, the keywork _Pragma uses a string literal. However, Visual C++ does not support it as of Visual Studio 2019. Instead, it uses the non-standard keyword __pragma with a plain directive (not a string).

Parameters

directive The directive for the pragma. Plain directive, not a string literal.

Examples (depending on compilers):

TS_PRAGMA(clang diagnostic push)
TS_PRAGMA(GCC diagnostic push)
TS_PRAGMA(warning(push))

◆ TS_PUSH_WARNING

#define TS_PUSH_WARNING ( )

Save the compiler's warnings reporting.

See also: TS_POP_WARNING

◆ TS_POP_WARNING

#define TS_POP_WARNING ( )

Restore the compiler's warnings reporting from a previous TS_PUSH_WARNING().

See also: TS_PUSH_WARNING

◆ TS_LLVM_NOWARNING

#define TS_LLVM_NOWARNING ( name )

Disable a warning with the LLVM/clang compiler (does nothing on other compilers).

Parameters

name	Warning name, as used after command line option `-W`

◆ TS_GCC_NOWARNING

#define TS_GCC_NOWARNING ( name )

Disable a warning with the GCC compiler (does nothing on other compilers).

Parameters

name	Warning name, as used after command line option `-W`

◆ TS_MSC_NOWARNING

#define TS_MSC_NOWARNING ( num )

Disable a warning with the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler (does nothing on other compilers).

Parameters

num	Warning number.

◆ TS_NO_OPTIMIZE

#define TS_NO_OPTIMIZE platform_specific

Attribute to explicitly disable optimization in a function.

Example:

void f() TS_NO_OPTIMIZE;

TS_NO_OPTIMIZE

#define TS_NO_OPTIMIZE

Attribute to explicitly disable optimization in a function.

Definition tsPlatform.h:759

◆ TS_FUNCTION

#define TS_FUNCTION

Definition of the name of the current function.

This is typically func but recent compilers have "pretty" names for C++.

◆ TSDUCKDLL

#define TSDUCKDLL

Attribute to declare a class or function from tsduck.dll on Windows.

When building tsduck.dll on Windows, define _TSDUCKDLL_IMPL in the project options. When building a project which references tsduck.dll, define _TSDUCKDLL_USE. All API located inside tsduck.dll shall be prefixed by TSDUCKDLL in headers. This prefix exports the API when building the DLL and imports the API when used in an application.
