Simple software timer module

• This is a simple software timer module implemented in C;

• The idea is to, through one source of time base, be able to enable a pre-defined max number of independent, asynchronous timers with callback capabilities;

• This is a personal project focused on experimenting with multiple skills such as:

  • Jenkins;
  • CMake;
  • Yocto;
  • Bash scripting;
  • Unit test (unity);
  • Clang formatter;
  • Git;
  • C programing language;

• The following commands can be issued:

  • Where <target> is either example or lib or tests

# Configure
cmake -S . -B build -D TARGET_GROUP=<target>
# Build
cmake --build build --parallel `nproc`
# Install it all
cmake --install build --strip --prefix /custom/path
# Install only headers
cmake --install build --strip --prefix /custom/path --component headers
# Install only shared lib  (.so file)
cmake --install build --strip --prefix /custom/path --component sharedlib

• Alternatively, use the bbuild.sh script, which is an abstraction to cmake and clang-format commands

# [r]ebuild and [e]xecute the example
$ ./bbuild.sh -r -e example

# [r]ebuild and [e]xecute the (unit) tests
$ ./bbuild.sh -r -e tests

# [r]ebuild the shared library (.so file)
$ ./bbuild.sh -r lib
