| 1 # Overview | |
| 2 | |
| 3 Welcome to the UAP Common Extensions. | |
| 4 | |
| 5 With this library we provide useful data structures and algorithms for common | |
| 6 programmatic tasks in the C language. Using the build files you can create | |
| 7 a static and a shared lib containing all units, but you may also use the UCX | |
| 8 sources in your project and compile specific units by yourself. | |
| 9 | |
| 10 If you want to use this library, you can [download and install](install.md) | |
| 11 the recent version. | |
| 12 The source code is also available as Mercurial repository [at our site][1] and | |
| 13 on [Source Forge][2]. | |
