Simple Useful Libraries: C++17/20 header-only dynamic bitset

## Requirements

To use this *dynamic bitset*, you will need a **C++17 (or later) compliant compiler**. If you use CMake and want to use the *dynamic bitset* as a subproject, you will need **CMake 3.10 or later**.

## Usage sample

```cpp
#include
#include
#include

int main()
{
// predefined bitset
sul::dynamic_bitset<> bitset1(12, 0b0100010110111);
std::cout << "bitset1 = " << bitset1 << std::endl;

// random bitset
std::minstd_rand rand(std::random_device{}());
std::bernoulli_distribution dist;
sul::dynamic_bitset<> bitset2;
for(size_t i = 0; i < 12; ++i)
{
bitset2.push_back(dist(rand));
}
std::cout << "bitset2 = " << bitset2 << std::endl;

std::cout << "common bits = " << (bitset1 & bitset2) << std::endl;
return 0;
}
```

Possible output:

bitset1 = 100010110111
bitset2 = 001011011011
common bits = 000010010011

Test it on [godbolt.org](https://godbolt.org/z/1veE71rYT).

## Optional dependency

Optionally, [libpopcnt](https://github.com/kimwalisch/libpopcnt) will be used to optimize the bits counting operations, if the header is available (``__has_include()``) and ``DYNAMIC_BITSET_NO_LIBPOPCNT`` is not defined.

## Integration

As it is a header-only library, the easiest way to integrate the *sul::dynamic_bitset* class in your project is to just copy the [sul](include/sul) folder in your project sources. Optionally, if you also copy *libpopcnt.h* from [libpopcnt](https://github.com/kimwalisch/libpopcnt), it will be used by default if it is available.

## CMake integration

If you use CMake and want to use the *dynamic bitset* as a subproject, clone the repository (or add it as a git submodule) in a sub-folder of your project. Then, in your *CMakeLists.txt* add:
```CMake
add_subdirectory()
```
It will define the *dynamic_bitset* target and the alias target *sul::dynamic_bitset* that you can use to add the folder containing *dynamic_bitset.hpp* to your project header folders. To do so, in your *CMakeLists.txt* add:
```CMake
target_link_libraries( PRIVATE sul::dynamic_bitset)
```

For example, a simple project with the repository as a git submodule in the *extlibs* folder, could have a *CMakeLists.txt* similar to this:
```CMake
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
project(CoolProject LANGUAGES CXX)

add_executable(CoolProject main.cpp)
target_compile_features(CoolProject PRIVATE cxx_std_20)

add_subdirectory(extlibs/dynamic_bitset)
target_link_libraries(CoolProject PRIVATE sul::dynamic_bitset)
```

If you pulled the git submodule libpopcnt (in [extlibs](extlibs)) and set the *dynamic bitset* CMake options ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT`` and ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT_SUBMODULE`` to ``ON``(default values), the folder containing *libpopcnt.h* will also be added to the headers paths and libpopcnt will be used.

## CMake options

### Descriptions

- ``DYNAMICBITSET_NO_NAMESPACE``: Put the dynamic_bitset class in the global namespace instead of the sul namespace (not recommended)
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT``: Enable using libpopcnt for bits counting operations
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT_SUBMODULE``: Enable adding libpopcnt submodule to include paths (disable if your project already include libpopcnt)
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_STD_BITOPS``: Enable using (if available) C++20 binary operations from the bit header
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_USE_COMPILER_BUILTIN``: Enable using (if available) compiler builtins (if using C++20 binary operations is disabled or not possible)
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_EXAMPLE``: Enable building example for dynamic_bitset
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_TESTS``: Enable building tests for dynamic_bitset
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_DOCS``: Enable building documentation for dynamic_bitset
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_FORMAT_TARGET``: Enable generating a code formating target for dynamic_bitset
- ``DYNAMICBITSET_HEADERS_TARGET_IDE``: Enable generating a target with headers for ide for dynamic_bitset

### Default values

| Option | Default value as top level project | Default value as subdirectory |
| ------------------------------------- | :--------------------------------: | :---------------------------: |
| DYNAMICBITSET_NO_NAMESPACE | OFF | OFF |
| DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT | ON | ON |
| DYNAMICBITSET_USE_LIBPOPCNT_SUBMODULE | ON | ON |
| DYNAMICBITSET_USE_STD_BITOPS | ON | ON |
| DYNAMICBITSET_USE_COMPILER_BUILTIN | ON | ON |
| DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_EXAMPLE | ON | OFF |
| DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_TESTS | ON | OFF |
| DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_DOCS | ON | OFF |
| DYNAMICBITSET_FORMAT_TARGET | ON | OFF |
| DYNAMICBITSET_HEADERS_TARGET_IDE | ON | OFF |

## Build tests, example, and documentation

The latest version of the documentation is available online [here](https://pinam45.github.io/dynamic_bitset).

To build the tests, the example, and the documentation, git submodules are required, so don't forget to pull the submodules with the repository using ``--recursive``:

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/pinam45/dynamic_bitset.git

or if you have already cloned the repository:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

The project uses CMake to build and define the options ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_TESTS``, ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_EXAMPLE``, and ``DYNAMICBITSET_BUILD_DOCS`` to enable the generation of the tests, example, and documentation targets, these option are enabled by default if the project is the master project (not included from another *CMakeLists.txt* with *add_subdirectory*).

Generating the documentation requires **[Doxygen](http://www.doxygen.nl/) 1.8.16 or later** and is done by building the target *dynamic_bitset_docs*. For running the tests, build the *dynamic_bitset_tests* target and launch the tests using ctest.

See [Running CMake](https://cmake.org/runningcmake/) and [the ctest documentation](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/ctest.1.html) for more information. On linux, a common way of doing this is:

$ mkdir cmake-build
$ cd cmake-build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .
$ ctest --output-on-failure

On Windows, there is batch files available to configure a Visual Studio project in the [ide](ide) folder.
