The PID framework is provided with a set of packages that provide common utilities for C++ developpers.

Some of these packages are deeply bound to the PID development methodology and more particularly are interfaced with CMake description of packages:

pid-rpath for the management runtime resources like configuration and log files, automating resolution of their path.
pid-log a logging utility, that particularly allows to control and discriminate the generation of logs by components (libraries and applications).
pid-modules for the development of DLL and plugin based applications.
pid-tests a testing utility library based on catch2 test framework.

The framework provides the following set of packages that contribute to its global API:

pid-daemonize, with provided libraries:
- daemonize: an utility to control and monitor background running processes
pid-log, with provided libraries:
- pid-log : The runtime PID logging system.
pid-modules, with provided libraries:
- dll : Management of dynamically loadable libraries.
- plugins : Management of application plugins.
pid-network-utilities, with provided libraries:
pid-os-utilities, with provided libraries:
- pid-signal-manager: using system signals
- pid-realtime: controlling realtime properties of executables
pid-rpath, with provided libraries:
- rpathlib : runtime path management in a PID workspace.
pid-threading, with provided libraries:
- synchro : utilities for threads synchronization.
- loops: a library for programming synchronized infinite loops
pid-utils, with provided libraries:
