We now have a C++ red-black tree implementation that implements standard
template library compatible APIs while compiling 10x faster than libcxx.
It's not as beautiful as the red-black tree implementation in Plinko but
this will get the job done and the test proves it upholds all invariants
This change also restores CheckForMemoryLeaks() support and fixes a real
actual bug I discovered with Doug Lea's dlmalloc_inspect_all() function.
The STL says that these should be replaceable by user code.
new.cc now defines only a few direct functions (including a free wrapper
that perplexingly is needed since g++ didn’t want to alias "free".) Now,
all of the operators are weak references to those functions.
This replaces the STL <new> header. Mainly, it defines a global operator
new and operator delete, as well as the placement versions of these. The
placement versions are required to not get compile errors when trying to
write a placement new statement.
Each of these operators is defined with many, many different variants. A
glance at new.cc is recommended followed by a chaser of the Alexandrescu
talk "std::allocator is to Allocation as std::vector is to Vexation". We
must provide a global-namespace source-level definition of each operator
and it is illegal for any of them to be marked inline, so here we are.
The upshot is that we no longer need to include <new>, and our optional/
vector headers are self-contained.
