GnuWin32 provides Win32 (MS Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP / 2003 / Vista) ports of tools with a GNU or similar open source license. It is Win32-versions of GNU tools, or tools with a similar open source license. The ports are native ports, that is they rely only on libraries provided with any standard 32-bits MS-Windows operating system, such as MS-Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP / 2003 / Vista. Native ports do not rely on some kind of Unix emulation, such as CygWin or Msys…

wxwidgets - a Cross Platform GUI Toolkits

cplus — Sun, 15 Jul 2007 15:37:02 +0000

A cross platforms GUI toolkits, wxWidgets lets developers create applications for Win32, Mac OS X, GTK+, X11, Motif, WinCE, and more using one codebase. It can be used from languages such as C++, Python, Perl, and C#/.NET. It is claimed that, unlike other cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets applications look and feel native. This is because wxWidgets uses the platform’s own native controls rather than emulating them. A single, easy-to-use API for writing GUI applications on multiple platforms. It’s also extensive, free, open-source, and mature. Try it now!

mimetic A free/GPL C++ MIME Library

cplus — Sun, 24 Jun 2007 03:37:42 +0000

mimetic is a free/GPL Email library (MIME) written in C++ designed to be easy to use and integrate but yet fast and efficient. It is based on the C++ standard library and heavily uses templates so require standard compliant C++ compilers. It has been developed using GCC 3.x and tested on most Unixes. mimetic code include some classes that are not strictly needed but are there just to improve performance. Most classes functionalities and behavior will be clear if you ever studied MIME and its components; if you don’t know anything about Internet messages you’ll probably want to read some RFCs to understand the topic and, therefore, easily use the library whose names, whenever possible, overlap terms adopted in the standard RFC documents. At the very least: RFC 822, RFC 2045 and RFC 2046. A more complete list can be found at the Earl Wood’s MIME page.

Oracle C++ Class Library - OCL

cplus — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 11:21:49 +0000

OCL stands for Oracle Class Library provides native connectivity to the Oracle database server. OCL uses Oracle Call Interface (OCI) directly. OCI is low-level native application programming interface to access to Oracle. Using OCI in Oracle Class Library allows to create lightweight and fast applications working with Oracle. Oracle Class Library encapsulates OCI calls in high-level classes that allows to hide the complexity of using OCI directly and keep perfomance and all abilities of native routines. With OCL you can use the power and flexibility of SQL in your application programs without any restrictions.
OCL contains classes to control connection, execute SQL statements, store and process result rows of queries and some common classes useful for developing database applications. All classes have intuitive, easy to use interface.
OCL is written with ANSI C++ and uses Standard C++ Library only that allows you to port your application easily to another platform.Oracle Class Library provides easiness in using from Pro*C/C++ and power of Oracle Call Interface…
