1SUMMARY = "A garbage collector for C and C++" 2 3DESCRIPTION = "The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be\ 4 used as a garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It allows\ 5 you to allocate memory basically as you normally would, without explicitly\ 6 deallocating memory that is no longer useful. The collector automatically\ 7 recycles memory when it determines that it can no longer be otherwise\ 8 accessed.\ 9 The collector is also used by a number of programming language\ 10 implementations that either use C as intermediate code, want to facilitate\ 11 easier interoperation with C libraries, or just prefer the simple collector\ 12 interface.\ 13 Alternatively, the garbage collector may be used as a leak detector for C\ 14 or C++ programs, though that is not its primary goal.\ 15 Empirically, this collector works with most unmodified C programs, simply\ 16 by replacing malloc with GC_malloc calls, replacing realloc with GC_realloc\ 17 calls, and removing free calls." 18 19HOMEPAGE = "https://www.hboehm.info/gc/" 20SECTION = "devel" 21LICENSE = "MIT" 22LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://README.QUICK;md5=dd27361ad00943bb27bc3e0589037075" 23 24DEPENDS = "libatomic-ops" 25 26SRCREV = "e340b2e869e02718de9c9d7fa440ef4b35785388" 27SRC_URI = "git://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc.git;branch=release-8_2;protocol=https" 28 29S = "${WORKDIR}/git" 30 31inherit autotools pkgconfig 32 33EXTRA_OECONF += "--enable-cplusplus" 34 35FILES:${PN}-doc = "${datadir}" 36 37BBCLASSEXTEND = "native nativesdk" 38
