Nana - Library for assertion checking and logging in GNU C/C++

A freely available lib for assertion checking and logging in GNU C and C++. It's smaller and faster compared to assert.h, and assertions can refer to a saved state. Logging messages can be redirected to destinations including files, processes, or circular buffers in core.

These features can be selectively enabled at both compile and runtime. Lists of invariant checking or printing functions can be created which can then be called to check internal consistency or display state. You can find your errors sooner, when it's faster and cheaper to correct them.
