// vim:ft=doxygen /** \defgroup pbdrv pbdrv \brief Standalone puzzle bus driver \ref pbdrv is a standalone portable static library for handling (i.e. (de)serialization) of puzzle bus messages. \ref pbdrv is meant for use within applications that handle puzzle bus messages, but are not puzzle modules themselves. For a complete puzzle module driver, please see \ref pbdrv-mod. If you order to use \ref pbdrv, you need to include this folder in your CMakeLists.txt file, include the \ref pb_ext "extension" for your target platform, and link the \c pbdrv library with your executable. \par Example ```cmake # include pbdrv add_subdirectory(lib/pbdrv) # # link with executable target_link_libraries(main pbdrv) ``` \defgroup pbdrv-mod pbdrv-mod \brief Puzzle module driver (superset of \ref pbdrv) pbdrv-mod is a superset of \ref pbdrv, and includes functions specific to puzzle bus modules. \ref pbdrv-mod compiles to an object file instead of a static library because it may depend on functions that rely on external libraries. \ref pbdrv-mod is still considered standalone, but requires either using an existing \ref pb_drv "driver", or (partially) implementing the driver functions. Like \ref pbdrv, \ref pbdrv-mod can be used by including this folder in your CMakeLists.txt file and linking the library with your executable. Please see the \ref pb_drv "drivers" page for target-specific usage instructions. \par Example ```cmake # include pbdrv add_subdirectory(lib/pbdrv) # link with executable target_link_libraries(main pbdrv-mod) ``` \note In most cases, the \ref pb_hook "hooks" should be sufficient to realize extensions or custom behavior not provided by \ref pbdrv-mod. \note Most \c pb_* functions have a weak implementation, which may be overwritten by a custom implementation. This allows you to use the default implementation where possible, and only implement extensions required for your puzzle module. \see pbdrv \{ \defgroup pb_hook Hook \brief Functions for (partially) overriding default behavior Hooks are functions that allow the user to implement custom behavior (i.e. extend or conditionally replace the default handlers), without needing to completely overwrite the built-in handlers or understand the internals of \ref pbdrv-mod. \} */
