Creating a new package

A package in Clever is just like a namespace, but it only can contains modules. To implement a new package, you must implement a pure virtual init() method which import its modules, and specify the inheritance from Package class, see below:

#include "compiler/module.h"

namespace clever { namespace packages {

class Std : public Package {
public:
        Std()
                : Package("std") { }

        ~Std() { }

        void init();

        const char* getVersion() const { return NULL; }
private:
        DISALLOW_COPY_AND_ASSIGN(Std);
};

}} // clever::std_pkg

In the init() process the package just have to add the modules, such task is done by the method addModule() from Package class. See an example below:

namespace clever { namespace packages {

/**
 * Initializes Std package
 */
void Std::init() {
      addModule(new std::IOModule);
}

}} // clever::packages
