Cad's Addenda... by Cyril Adrian (aka Cad)
libCad provides common services and functions for the utilities I
maintain (see e.g. YacJP and Circus)
This library started with YacJP. Some parts are reusable though, so I split them in a separate library.
Other parts I designed from scratch, based on ideas in other projects I work with.
C does not mean “not object”. Actually the whole Cad library is built using object-oriented techniques: one may find encapsulation, polymorphism, and even some design patterns (composites, factories, visitors).
libCad is a foundation library for other libraries to build upon. As
such, not only does it provide common code structures and functions,
but libCad also provides a build framework (release.sh and
Makefile) that should be able to build well-formed Debian packages
(the library package, a development package, and a documentation
package).
