The source files in google/cloud/ define types and functions shared by the
several Google Cloud C++ libraries. Here is where you will find the
implementation of types used throughout the libraries, such as StatusOr<T>,
Status, future<T>, or CompletionQueue.
We consider this code stable and generally available. Please note that the Google Cloud C++ client libraries do not follow Semantic Versioning.
Some sub-directories include internal-only types and functions. These are
used in the implementation of the Google Cloud C++ libraries, but are not
intended for general use. They are subject to change and/or removal without
notice. These include google/cloud/internal/, and
google/cloud/testing_utils/.
