1. Introduction
---------------

With this library we provide useful data structures and algorithms for common
programmatic tasks in the C language. By design the features are divided into
modules to minimize the library footprint. Using the build files you can create
a static and a shared lib containing all modules, but you may also use the UCX
sources in your project and compile specific modules by yourself to further
minimize the footprint.


2. Build
--------

Untar the source archive and simply run

  ./configure && make

If you want to verify your build, you may then run

  make check

3. Install
----------

Build the binaries as described above. Then install UCX, by running

  make install

or

  make install PREFIX=<install_dir>

The default prefix is /usr/local and will require privileged access.

4. Documentation
----------------

Documentation is available at:

  https://develop.uap-core.de/ucx/index.html

The code uses doxygen source code documentation. A html version of the
documentation is also available here:
