Primer

A C++ base class collection library for Blusher.

All non-GUI related classes are split here.

Perpose

Blusher is a C++ GUI framework but still needs non-GUI classes since C++ does not offer that much functionalities for build the applications.

Like glib or Qt Core, this library provide Unicode string, vector, hash map and more. These classes have APIs as high-level as possible.

Namespaces

All Primer objects begin with pr:: C++ namespace.
