Hermes

---

Hermes is a multi-purpose C++/(optionally CUDA) library with lots of data structures and algorithms. The purpose is to serve as a starting point to your project by providing some common and auxiliary tools.

Please check the docs for a good introduction, details of the API and examples.

This library is my personal lib that I use in my projects, at my own risk :) Please keep it in mind.

Here is the list of some things you can get from hermes:

	some features
geometry	vector, point, matrix, transforms, intersection tests, line, plane
numeric	math operations, interpolation, intervals
storage	allocators, memory blocks, array of structs
common	code profiling, logging, string operations, filesystem, arg parser

Usage

// TODO

Build

Please check the docs for details about the build process of hermes.

In order to build and use Hermes (with no options), you can do as usual with cmake:

git clone https://github.com/filipecn/hermes.git
cd hermes
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j8 install

Depending on what you want to compile, you may need to set some cmake options:

variable	description	default
BUILD_ALL	set all variables below to ON	OFF
BUILD_WITH_CUDA	compiles with support to CUDA	OFF
BUILD_TESTS	build unit-tests	OFF
BUILD_EXAMPLES	build examples	OFF
BUILD_DOCS	generates documentation	OFF

Suppose you would like to use CUDA and also perform the unit tests, your cmake command then will look like this:

cmake .. -DBUILD_WITH_CUDA=ON -DBUILD_TESTS=ON

I've been developing Hermes under Ubuntu 20.04, I have no idea how it behaves on other systems (or distributions).

Dependencies

Hermes is dependency-free library, so there is no need to install/compile anything else, besides optionally CUDA.

• catch2 - is used for the unit-tests, but their header is already included in the source :)

TODO

• Find nvcc automatically (CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER)
• online documentation
• README :)
