areg-sdk VS iceoryx

FP Libraries: gRPC, ZeroMQ, and AREG are examples of libraries with a special focus on providing possibilities for Interprocess Communication. Developed using C++, they facilitate communication through predefined APIs, emphasizing functional programming concepts.

In addition, if the owners of the repositories add more relevant and precise labels to the issues, it increases the possibility that the OSS developers find the issues they would loved to resolve. For example, the issues of AREG SDK which marked "help wanted" in addition have such labels like "C++" or "cmake", "unit test", etc.

My closer introduction with these 2 tools started from OSS areg sdk project. Because of some experienced friend recommendation, i started with make. The main reason was that it is more spread in embedded. No other weighty argument they had. After having make, i decided to integrate cmake. Suddenly i figured out that cmake for me is more understandable and powerful. It already has many features that makes things easier. The biggest advantage for me is that in comparison to make / Makefile, lot of IDE support build with cmake. The cross-platform / cross-compile for areg-sdk is important feature, and this is easier to achieve with cmake. For example, I can compile with make under Linux with gcc/clang, but under windows can compile in cygwin environment and not with MSVC, which is not the issue in case of cmake.

Project: AREG is a cross-platform interface-centric lightweight communication engine, which forms a grid of services in the IoT fog- and mist-network, automates the real-time transmission of data between multiple connected software nodes, so that the connected Things interact like a thin distributed servers and clients. Technologies: C/C++17, standard library dependencies, POSIX and Win32 API. Can be used in real product.

Nice. I also have own project, but it already requires much time, so that cannot join in other projects. As well, up to now have no dependencies, except standard system libraries. I think, we should have a separate post to share projects and give short description. Some might be interested to join.

Here I've crated a list of API that use in the project. Some of methods are part of ncurses.h. So I have a questions:

Also, when you want to perform some access control with access rights, you have to face sid— and ace-strings - oh they are fun. And, of course, there are all the nasty details; for instance, Windows defines macros that lead to compilation failures since they collide with internal naming. Take a look at this here, maybe it makes your efforts less painless: https://github.com/eclipse-iceoryx/iceoryx/blob/master/iceor...

You could reuse the iceoryx platform layer that enables iceoryx to run on every platform from qnx, linux, freertos, mac, windows. Maybe it can help you as well: https://github.com/eclipse-iceoryx/iceoryx/blob/master/doc/w...

Does the schema help a lot? For C++ you can get very fast without, for example with IceOryx https://github.com/eclipse-iceoryx/iceoryx

In contrast to Cap'n'Proto you get compiler optimized struct layout as benefit from using raw structs. Benchmarks are here https://iceoryx.io/v2.0.2/examples/iceperf/

True, a better comparison for Shadesmar would be with libraries like iceoryx and alephzero.

This is the tracking issue for Windows support https://github.com/eclipse-iceoryx/iceoryx/issues/33
