Brutal Core

Build

The root of the BRUTAL framework: the foundational types every other BRUTAL package builds on.

Ahwoo.BRUTAL.Core is the Ptr<T> family, ByteSize and ElementCount, Bool8/Bool32, the typed enum helpers, Platform, the shared attributes such as [Fixed], and the Roslyn analyzers that enforce them (BRUTALCORE0003, 0007–0010, embedded in the package). It was previously published as RocketWerkz.Brutal.Core.Common; the Brutal root namespace is unchanged.

The packages that used to live alongside it in this repository now have their own: brutal.memory, brutal.collections, brutal.strings, brutal.logging, brutal.numerics and brutal.maths. Each ships its own analyzers.

Platform Support

  • Windows (x64)
  • Linux (x64)
  • macOS (Apple Silicon)
