Version 1.2.0

[Summary]

StormByte Buffer is the byte-buffer module of the StormByte C++ suite.

It depends on StormByte Base and optionally StormByte Logger. This repository is not Base, Config, Crypto, Database, Logger, Multimedia, Network or System.

Public headers under StormByte/buffer/ cover FIFO, SharedFIFO, Ring, Producer/Consumer, Hopper, Sink, Bridge and Pipeline.

If you landed here from a release link and have not read the tree:

Added

• Hopper::Unnotify and Sink::Unnotify. Notify(cv&) does not own the
  condition variable. After wiring, the Hopper outlives the consumer; the
  consumer must Unnotify before that CV is destroyed so a later producer
  Eof does not signal a freed object. SignalConsumer is a no-op when
  the pointer is null.
• Sink::To(key), Sink::operator>> and Sink::operator<<. Same wiring
  as Bind / Bind(key) (writer, reader, co-writer). Bind stays as a
  [[deprecated]] wrapper for one or two releases.
• Hopper::operator<< / Hopper::operator>> and item >> hopper. Same
  as Push / Pop. Those methods stay.
• Pipeline::Process scopes a non-null logger with Scope("Buffer/Pipeline")
  before handing it to stages. %c identifies this module without using the
  thread-local component stack. Nested log->Scope("Decode") inside a stage
  becomes Buffer/Pipeline/Decode (or Multimedia/Buffer/Pipeline/Decode
  if the caller already scoped a parent). Pass the application or parent-module
  logger; do not pre-scope Buffer/Pipeline.

Changed

• Optional Logger pin is 1.2.0
  (Scope and hierarchical components).

Tests

• test_hopper_unnotify_before_cv_dies, test_hopper_notify_after_unnotify,
  test_hopper_stream_members, test_hopper_stream_item_into.
• test_sink_unnotify_before_cv_dies, test_sink_stream_operators.
  Existing Sink tests use To / >> / << instead of Bind.
