Welcome to the gtplib wiki!

gtplib is a header-only C++ library implementing the Go Text Protocol. The specification of the protocol itself can be found here.

In order to use it, you just have to create a class that handles GTP commands and wire it like this:

TODO: piece of code showing how to use it

It uses the following features from C++11:

• strongly-typed enums (i.e. 'enum class').
• type aliases (i.e.new usage of keyword 'using').
• for each loops.
• auto.
• variadic templates.
• tuples.
• atomics.
• initializer lists.

The template metaprogramming idioms used are:

• Normal template specialization for static dispatching and branching.
• int-to-type to map GTP command type enum values to types.
• type traits to store GTP commands metainfo.
