sigslot | A simple C++14 signal-slots implementation | Architecture library

No compilation or installation is required, just include sigslot/signal.hpp and use it. Sigslot currently depends on a C++14 compliant compiler, but if need arises it may be retrofitted to C++11. It is known to work with Clang 4.0 and GCC 5.0+ compilers on GNU Linux, MSVC 2017 and up, Clang-cl and MinGW on Windows. However, be aware of a potential gotcha on Windows with MSVC and Clang-Cl compilers, which may need the /OPT:NOICF linker flags in exceptional situations. Read The Implementation Details chapter for an explanation. A CMake list file is supplied for installation purpose and generating a CMake import module. This is the preferred installation method. The Pal::Sigslot imported target is available and already applies the needed linker flags. It is also required for examples and tests, which optionally depend on Qt5 and Boost for adapters unit tests. A configuration option SIGSLOT_REDUCE_COMPILE_TIME is available at configuration time. When activated, it attempts to reduce code bloat by avoiding heavy template instantiations resulting from calls to std::make_shared. This option is off by default, but can be activated for those who wish to favor code size and compilation time at the expanse of slightly less efficient code.
