Available C++ Libraries FAQ
Introduction
About the list
Here is the latest draft of the "Available C++ libraries FAQ".
This list is not exhaustive. If you are looking for a particular library, and you don't find it here, try an ordinary Web search engine (e.g. Google). If you do find a suitable library, why not use the submission form to add it to this list for the next person?
Due to the increasing size of this list, and problems with updating the automatic poster at rtfm.mit.edu, the full list is now only available on the Web (at www.trumphurst.com/cpplibs/).
Marshall Cline's C++ FAQ is available on his Web page.
I have not included a credits list, because it would be nearly as large as the rest of the file! Many thanks to all those who contributed, and I hope you won't be offended that I haven't mentioned you.
Please send comments, criticisms, additions and amendments to me using the forms on the Web site. Please DO NOT mail me with requests for assistance in finding files mentioned in the list. I am unable to provide such a service. Definite information such as "file xyz is no longer at site xxx" IS welcome - even better if you can tell me an alternative site where it can be found. If you are new to the Internet, I recommend the newsgroups "news.announce.newusers" and "news.answers" for starters.

Dos and don'ts - (Mostly don'ts)
- Do not send me mail asking for help with your programming - unless you are willing to pay my normal daily rate for consultancy. Free advice is available from Usenet newsgroups like comp.lang.c++.
- Do not ask me if there is a library to do a particular task. All the libraries I know about are in this list.
- I do not actually have copies of the libraries in the list. I do not evaluate the libraries in the list, I just collect together information sent in by the authors or others. So it's no use asking me how good a particular library is, or, indeed, anything about them that isn't already in the list.
- If you want me to include your library in the list, send in a submission. Do not just send in a URL, and expect me to connect to the Internet, download your Web page(s) and summarise them. That's your job.

Adding or amending entries
Sending in a new entry
If your library isn't mentioned, or you wish to update your entry in this list, feel free to submit an entry via the Web form. Please note that entries will be restricted to a couple of paragraphs - if you send me a 100k text file giving minute details, I will have to summarise it. Or I might just ignore it, if I'm busy. It is much easier for me if you just send me an entry which is the right size to start with.
Please try to format your entry in the same way as the entries already in this list. If you wish, you may include HTML tags in your Long description text, which will make it through to the WWW version of this document. Please do not use heading levels 1-3, and please do not include any hot links in the body of the text - all links should occur at the end of the text.
NOTE TO VENDORS
This FAQ contains details of both free and commercial libraries. Vendors who have sent me details of their libraries for inclusion in the FAQ have been pleasantly surprised by the level of interest generated. Please remember, I only allow 2 or 3 paragraphs describing the product, and no advertising hype !

ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE) - C++ IPC wrappers
This release contains contains the source code, documentation, and example test drivers for a number of C++ wrapper libraries and higher- level distributed application frameworks developed as part of the ADAPTIVE project at the University of Calfornia, Irvine.
The C++ wrappers encapsulate many of the user-level BSD and System V Release 4 IPC facilities such as sockets, TLI, select and poll, named pipes and STREAM pipes, the mmap family of memory-mapped file commands, System V IPC (i.e., shared memory, semaphores, message queues), and explicit dynamic linking (e.g., dlopen/dlsym/dlclose) using type-secure, object-oriented interfaces.
The higher-level distributed application frameworks integrate and enhance the lower-level C++ wrappers to support the configuration of concurrent network daemons composed of monolithic and/or stackable services
A relatively complete set of documentation and extensive examples are included in the release. A mailing list is available for discussing bug fixes, enhancements, and porting issues regarding ACE. Please send mail to ace-users-request@ics.uci.edu if you'd like to become part of the mailing list.

Amulet - User Interface Development Environment
AMULET is a user interface development environment in C++. Code written using Amulet will work with little or no changes on all platforms.
More than just another free "virtual toolkit," Amulet includes many features specifically designed to make the creation of highly-interactive, graphical, direct manipulation user interfaces significantly easier. Based on a proven earlier system, called Garnet, that was in wide use in the Lisp community, Amulet adds a number of important innovations and refinements.
Important features of Amulet include:
- a dynamic, prototype-instance object system that makes prototyping easier
- automatic constraint solving integrated with the object system
- a "structured-graphics" model (also called a "display list") that handles automatic refresh of objects when the change
- a high-level input model that makes it easy to add behaviors to objects and also supports undo and help for operations
- a full set of flexible widgets implemented using the Amulet intrinsics, so you can easily experiment with your own widgets; and high-level interactive debugging tools. Widgets include:buttons, check boxes, radio buttons, menus, menu bars (pull-down menus), scroll bars, scrolling windows, and text input fields.
Amulet comes with complete documentation including a tutorial.

APE - Portable C++ threading and sockets framework
APE is the "APE Portable Environment" and class libraries for writing
portable threaded servers in C++, under UNIX (pthread) and Win32 API's.
APE provides portable class abstraction for threads and sockets, and
is used as a base framework for other projects. The goal of APE is to
make writing threaded servers in C++ both practical and convenient,
even for small and simple projects, and hence simplicity and low
runtime overhead are design goals.
The 1.0.0 release of APE is available at ftp://ftp.voxilla.org/pub/ape
with both source and pre-built binary packages. APE has been used
not only in server applications, but also in conjunction with client
class frameworks, such as QT/KDE, to offer threading and socket
services. APE is licensed under the GPL with additional priviledges
as annoted in the source under terms similar to Guile.
As of March 14th, 2000, the APE project was merged with the Common C++ project to form the newly introduced Common C++ portable application framework.

Arabica - SAX2 implementation
SAX is an event-based XML processing API. Arabica is a full SAX2 implementation, including the optional interfaces and helper classes. It provides uniform SAX2 wrappers for the Expat parser, Xerces, Libxml2 and, on Windows, for the Microsoft XML parser.
The DOM is a platform- and language-neutral interface which models an XML document as a tree of nodes, defined by the W3C. Arabica implements the DOM Level 2 Core on top of the SAX layer.
XPath is a language for addressing parts of an XML document. Arabica implements XPath 1.0 over its DOM implementation.
XSLT is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents. Arabica builds XSLT over its XPath engine.
Arabica is written in Standard C++ and should be portable to most platforms. It is parameterised on string type. Out of the box, it can provide UTF-8 encoded std::strings or UTF-16 encoded std::wstrings, but can easily be customised for arbitrary string types.

Arjuna - For writing fault-tolerant (distributed) applications
Arjuna provides a set of tools (C++ classes and libraries) for writing fault-tolerant distributed applications using persistent objects, atomic actions, and replication. Included in the system is a C++ stub generator (and associated RPC mechanism) which takes a C++ class definition for an object and generates client and server stub code. Using these stub classes occurs in a relatively transparent manner: the differences between a local and distributed application are typically only a single line.
The system has been ported to a wide range of architectures and C++ compilers, both by the authors and other users, and has been in use for several years.
A comprehensive manual is available with the distribution.

Armadillo - Armadillo linear algebra (matrix) library
The Armadillo C++ Library aims to provide an efficient base for linear algebra operations (matrix and vector maths), while at the same time having a straightforward and easy to use interface. To keep it relatively lean, it does not aim to provide a boilerplate of functionality, such as GNU Octave. Its intended target audience is scientists and engineers.
A delayed evaluation approach is employed (during compile time) in order to combine several operations into one and reduce (or eliminate) the need for temporaries. Where applicable, the order of operations is optimised. Delayed evaluation and optimisation are achieved through recursive templates and template meta-programming.

Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries.
Boost emphasizes libraries that work well with the C++ Standard Library. Boost libraries are intended to be widely useful, and usable across a broad spectrum of applications. The Boost license encourages both commercial and non-commercial use.
Boost aims to establish "existing practice" and provide reference implementations so that Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. Ten Boost libraries are already included in the C++ Standards Committee's Library Technical Report (TR1) and will be in the new C++0x Standard now being finalized. C++0x will also include several more Boost libraries in addition to those from TR1. More Boost libraries are proposed for TR2.
Boost works on almost any modern operating system, including UNIX and Windows variants. Follow the Getting Started Guide to download and install Boost. Popular Linux and Unix distributions such as Fedora, Debian, and NetBSD include pre-built Boost packages. Boost may also already be available on your organization's internal web server.

BRL10 - Binary Relations Library for C/C++
Binary relations are more directly based on semantic
concepts rather than on recordlike structures as traditional
(relational, hierarchies, networks, object-oriented) models are.
Binary Relations tend to be more functionally complete
in their information processing capability, and more precise in
their semantic modelling.
The Binary Relations Approach was implemented in Binary
Relations Library for C/C++. BRL is not a full featured DBMS.
It does not support all ideas of the Binary Relations Approach.
BRL is however a small, fast and reliable engine.
BRL provides basic tools for using binary relations in C and C++
programs.

C++ Sockets Library - Unix / Windows Socket programming made easy
When making this library, there were a few things I wanted to achieve. I did not want to end up with C++ code that had to be used in the same way as the berkeley socket C API are being used ( connect/bind/accept - check result, write - check result, read - check result, etc, etc ). Another thing was the ability to manage multiple sockets in the same thread; the library should be singlethreaded - but not limited to one thread. So.. I never wanted to manage a fd_set for a select() call ever again, no more writing code for accepting a connection - this has already been done again and again in every single networking project ever made.
One decision made early on was to treat one socket as one object. And so was the Socket class born. The socket class, by itself, has all the functions needed for address translation (hostname to ip, ip to hostname etc). It owns the file descriptor / SOCKET handle. But it can't do anything. Code for actually doing something with the socket is implemented in other, Socket derived classes.

C++SIM 1.5.2 - A simulation package written in C++.
C++SIM provides discrete process based simulation similar to that provided by the simulation class and libraries of SIMULA. The linked list manipulation facilities provided by SIMSET are also included in the package, and there is support for a variety of statistics gathering classes.
The simulation package requires the use of a threads package and currently only works with the following:
- Sun's lwp threads and Solaris threads
- C++ task library
- NT threads
- Posix threads
- cthreads
- Rex threads
It has been build on a number of different architectures and C++ compilers, and porting to other systems should be relatively easy.

C/C++ cyclic logs - Record log information
Cyclic logs provide a platform-independent way for a server to record
stdout and stderr such that the most recent information can be
retained in a logfile without such logfiles growing in size such that
they might fill the disk up. A cyclic log has a fixed size upon
creation and a structure that allows older data to be overwritten on
the arrival of new data to be logged.
It consists of a C++ library, a C library, a set of commands and a user
manual.
It is released under the GPL license.

CalcPlus - Interpreter of procedural language
The CalcPlus library is the C++ class library which provides an ability to use your own programming language built into C++ project. Any algorithm or any constant needed by application can be carried out into the special file, when process comes to the key point, it calls function or procedure stored in the text file. Interpreter runs the function and process returns back to C++ code. Library contains the interpreter which understands simple nameless procedural language. Bi-directional communication between C++ and the code for interpreter available.
Version of the language that comes with the library allows to use functions, procedures, blocks, preprocessor, global and local variables and constants, if/for/while statements. Each variable can have value of type: nil, bool, long, float, string, date. Type definitions and arrays are allowed. Functions and procedures may be recursive. New functions written in C++ may be easily added to the language. Syntax of the language can be modified by changing YACC rules. Interpreter is fast enough and may be helpful for many tasks.
Platform independent, YACC required.

its values, sorting the records, adding/deleting records, etc. It comes
with full text and postscript documentation, and commented source code.
A demonstration program, TestDBF, shows the various possibilities of the
CDBFile library, and its source file, testdbf.cpp, demonstrates how to
implement CDBFile within a program. CDBFile was designed to be as
portable as possible: you should be able to compile it under "as is" any
DOS/Windows C++ compiler; porting it to Un*x/Linux should also require
little effort.
Since CDBFile is distributed under the GNU Public License for libraries,
I hope that programmers will like it and suggest or implement enhance-
ments and additional features to that piece of software.

CLN - a Class Library for Numbers
CLN is a library for computations with all kinds of numbers. It has a
rich set of number classes, including integers (with unlimited precision),
reals with various precisions (including unlimited), rationals, complex
numbers and polynomials. The kernel is written in assembly language, in
addition it can easily be configured to use the superefficient GNU MP
low-level functions. CLN uses garbage collection (automatic, without
imposing any burden on the main application). Many extremely efficient
algorithms (i.e. for all transcendental functions) are implemented.

CMATH - Complex-number math library for Borland C/C++
CMATH is a comprehensive library for complex-number arithmetics and
mathematics. In contrast to C++-written complex class libraries, this
true Assembler implementation ensures superior computational efficiency,
mathematical accuracy and safety.
All functions exist in two alternative forms:
- a C++ form with overloaded function names, like sin, exp, operator
/;
- a plain-C form with data-type specific function names, like cf_sin,
cd_exp, ce_div, where the prefix determines the level of accuracy
(complex float, double, or extended).
Changes: The necessary adjustments have been made for CMATH to work with
the new version 4 of BCBuilder, while maintaining compatibility
with the older BC++ versions. Slight improvements with respect
to speed and accuracy have also been made for the forward and
inverse trigonometric functions.

Common C++ - A GNU Portable Application Framework
Common C++ is a C++ framework offering portable support for threading, sockets, file access, deamons, persistance, and system services, initially started by David Sugar and Daniel Silverstone. Common C++ is a GNU package and is licensed to the terms of the GNU GPL with specific privileges similar to Guile.
Common C++ offers support and portable classes for threading and sockets for both UNIX (Posix systems with "pthread" support) and the Windows "Win32" API. Common C++ uses extensive autoconf macro sets for automatic detection of various levels of "pthread compliance" in your target platform and attempts to adjust itself appropriately. Common C++ has been tested to date with GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, and DEC Tru64 Unix. HP/UX has also been tried and found not to be successfully supported at this time.
While Common C++ is not directly related to GNU portable threading (GNU Pth), it should work with the Pth "pthread emulation" library at present. Common C++ will become usable as a class framework for GNU Pth directly in future releases.
The primary goal of Common C++ is to promote a very low overhead abstract C++ interface to common system services. Consistent with this goal, and the desire for broad portability with wide compiler support, specific aspects and practices in C++ programming were selected when writing code in this package, and other practices were discarded that seemed to detract from this goal.

Database Template Library Programmer's Guide - The DTL makes ODBC recordsets look just like an STL container.
The goal of this library is to make ODBC recordsets look just like an STL container. What is more, we do this portably so the abstraction can run on multiple platforms and C++ compilers. As a user, you can move through our containers using standard STL iterators; and if you insert(), erase() or replace() records in our containers changes can be automatically migrated to the database for you. The library's compliance with the STL iterator and container standards means you can plug our abstractions into a wide variety of STL algorithms for data storage, searching and manipulation. In addition, the C++ reflection mechanism used by our library to bind to database tables allows us to add generic indexing and lookup properties to our containers with no special code required from the end-user. Because our code takes full advantage of the template mechanism, our library adds minimal overhead compared with using raw ODBC calls to access a database.

Developer - Smart Pointers
smart_ptr is a smart pointer policy class that can use different ownership logic and semantic polices, which allows the developer to get the best performance and/or interface for a particular requirement.
The smart_ptr class can be used with STL containers to create containers of smart pointers, moreover it can be used to create a container of abstract based objects via smart_ptr. In general, smart_ptr is faster than boost::shared_ptr. When used with STL containers, the smart pointer is faster than the boost pointer containers, and more generic.

eigen - C++ template library for linear algebra: vectors, matrices & related algorithms
Eigen is a C++ template library for linear algebra: vectors, matrices, and related algorithms. It is:
- Versatile. (See modules and tutorial). Eigen handles, without code duplication, and in a completely integrated way:
- both fixed-size and dynamic-size matrices and vectors.
- both dense and sparse (the latter is still experimental) matrices and vectors.
- both plain matrices/vectors and abstract expressions.
- both column-major (the default) and row-major matrix storage.
- both basic matrix/vector manipulation and many more advanced,
- specialized modules providing algorithms for linear algebra, geometry, quaternions, or advanced array manipulation.
various numeric types out of the box, including std::complex numbers, while being easy to extend to custom numeric types.
- Fast. (See benchmark).
- Expression templates allow to intelligently remove temporaries and enable lazy evaluation, when that is appropriate -- Eigen takes care of this automatically and handles aliasing too in most cases.
- Explicit vectorization is performed for the SSE (2 and later) and AltiVec instruction sets, with graceful fallback to non-vectorized code. Expression templates allow to perform these optimizations globally for whole expressions.
- With fixed-size objects, dynamic memory allocation is avoided, and the loops are unrolled when that makes sense.
- For large matrices, special attention is paid to cache-friendliness.
- Elegant. (See API showcase). The API is extremely clean and expressive, thanks to expression templates. Implementing an algorithm on top of Eigen feels like just copying pseudocode. You can use complex expressions and still rely on Eigen to produce optimized code: there is no need for you to manually decompose expressions into small steps.
- Compiler-friendy. Eigen has very reasonable compilation times at least with GCC, compared to other C++ libraries based on expression templates and heavy metaprogramming. Eigen is also standard C++ and supports various compilers.

EO - Evolutionary computation library
EO (Evolvable|Evolutionary objects) is a C++ toolbox for evolutionary computation
which defines interfaces for many classes of algorithms used in evolutionary
computation, and, at the same time, provides some examples that use those
interfaces. The client/user can include those objects in his or her programs, or
create their own. If new objects are created, the GeNeura team commit themselves to
test them, and make them available to the Evolutionary Computation community. In
this way, no changes have to be made to the library design or to a program that
implements an EC algorithm: just new classes added. Our intention would be that, in
the future, somebody implementing an EC algorithm would say "I am using EO, plus a
class that hs been made publicly available", improving repeatability of EC results
and easing its availability.
It contains classes for any kind of evolutionary computation
you might come up to, except maybe genetic programming. Here are its
features
- Chromosomes: Can be defined by the user; binary, floating point and
string are provided. All algorithms defined work on all kind of
chromosomes.
- Genetic operators: Can be defined by the user. Several floating
point, bitstring, and generic operators are defined, like mutation,
crossover, and things like that.
- Selection/elimination procedure: Can be defined by the
user. Steady-State and rank-based are provided.
- Reproduction procedure: Can be user defined (I'll skip that from now
on, but everything can be user-defined). Random and rank-based are
provided.
- Termination conditions: (user-definable) fitness and generation-based.
- Algorithms: Easy Ga, SimpleGA and simulated annealing with
user-definable cooling schedule.
- Some utilities: command-line parsing, random-number generations
- Examples: examples that test all features, plus genetic mastermind.
- User interface: an example that uses gtk is provided
- Documentation in html.

Fast Light Toolkit - GNU LGPL GUI toolkit for X11 and Windows
FLTK (pronounced "fulltick") is a LGPL C++ graphical user
interface toolkit for X (UNIX®), OpenGL, and WIN32 (Microsoft®
Windows® NT 4.0, 95, or 98). It is currently maintained by a small
group of developers across the world with a central repository in the
US.
FLTK was originally created to build in-house applications at
Digital Domain for image processing and 3D graphics. The original
author, Bill Spitzak, received
permission from Digital Domain to release it to the public domain in
the hopes that it could be used to make better, faster, and
nicer-looking UNIX programs. Digital Domain has since withdrawn
support for FLTK, but Bill is still able to work o!n it from time to
time.
FLTK was designed to be small and modular enough to be statically linked.
FLTK also works fine as a shared library and has started being included
on Linux distributions.
Here are some of the core features unique to FLTK:
- sizeof(Fl_Widget) == 40 to 48
- The "core" (the "hello" program compiled & linked with a
static FLTK library using gcc on a 486 and then stripped) is
110k.
- The FLUID program (which includes every widget) is 372k.
- Does not use macros, templates, multiple inheritance, or
exceptions.
- Written directly atop Xlib (or the WIN32 API) for maximum
speed, and carefully optimized for code size and performance.
- Precise low-level compatibility between the X and Windows
version (only about 10% of the code is different).
- Interactive user interface builder
program. Output is human-readable and editable C++ source
code.
- Support for overlay
hardware (emulation if none and under Windows)
- Very small & fast portable
2-D drawing library to hide Xlib and WIN32
- OpenGL/Mesa drawing area widget
- Support for OpenGL overlay hardware on both X and Windows.
Emulation if none.
- Text input fields with Emacs
key bindings, cut & paste, and foreign letter compose!
- Compatability header file for the GLUT library
- Compatability header file for the
XForms library

FastFormat - 100% type-safe, infinitely extensible, very high performance C++ format library
FastFormat is an open source C++ formatting library, whose design parameters are 100% type-safety, efficiency, and flexibility. It is simple to use, highly-portable (platform and compiler-independent), and is infinitely extensible.
FastFormat supports output/formatting of statements of arbitrary complexity, consisting of heterogeneous types. It provides two APIs:
-
Format: provides replacement-based formatting, like Streams (printf()-family), Boost.Format()
-
Write: provides concatenation-based formatting, like IOStreams
FastFormat writes to output "sinks", which can be of arbitrary type. It implicitly supports any type that is structurally conformant with the standard library's string, and the library includes adaptors to allow writing to:
std::ostreamFILE*- STLSoft's
auto_buffer
- C-style string buffers and character buffers
- ACE's
ACE_String
- ATL's
CComBSTR
- MFC's
CString
std::stringstream- speech (currently Windows-only)
- Windows'
OutputDebugString()
- Windows'
MessageBox()
Adaptation to a new type requires the definition of a single function.
FastFormat is robust. Both APIs are 100% type-safe - something no other C/C++ widely-used formatting library can claim - and with the Write API it is impossible to compile defective code.
FastFormat is fast. The processing of each statement involves at most one memory allocation to hold the entire statement, and each statement element is measured and copied exactly once. As a consequence, the library is on a par with (the type-unsafe) C's Streams (printf()-family) of functions, faster than C++'s IOStreams (by 2-10x) and Loki.SafeFormat (by 1-5x), and considerably faster than Boost.Format (by 5-17x).
FastFormat supports I18N/L10N by using numbered arguments, enabling reordering of arguments by exchanging format strings. The library comes with a number of resource bundles, classes whose instances can load sets of localised resource strings for use as format strings.
FastFormat does not contain any compiler-specific or platform-specific constructs. It supports UNIX (including Linux and Mac OS-X), and Windows, and should work with any operating system. It is known to be compatible with Comeau (4.3.3+), GCC (3.4+), Intel (8+), Metrowerks (8+), Microsoft Visual C++ (6.0+), and should work with any reasonably modern C++ compiler.
FastFormat is completely free and includes source released under a BSD-style license. Commercial customisations and related consultancy are provided by Synesis Software.
FastFormat features in a series of articles in ACCU's peer-reviewed Overload magazine:
- An Introduction to FastFormat, part 1: The State of the Art, Matthew Wilson, Overload #89, February 2009
- An Introduction to FastFormat, part 2: Custom Argument and Sink Types, Matthew Wilson, Overload #90, April 2009
- An Introduction to FastFormat, part 3: Solving Real Problems, Quickly, Matthew Wilson, Overload #91, June 2009
Examples:
-
Emulate Streams' ability to specify widths:
printf("[%-10d, %10d]\n", 123, -456);
fastformat::fmtln(std::cout, "[{0,10,,<}, {1,10}]", 123, -456);
Both produce the output:
[123 , -456]
-
Handle heterogeneous types:
struct connection_t
{
std::string connectionId;
struct in_addr remoteAddress;
struct in_addr localAddress;
unsigned short port;
unsigned long numBytesTransferred;
struct tm completionTime;
};
void log_connection(connection_t const& conn)
{
fastformat::fmtln(
std::cout
, "{0} {5} {1} {2} {3} {4}"
, conn.connectionId
, conn.remoteAddress
, conn.localAddress
, conn.port
, conn.numBytesTransferred
, conn.completionTime
);
}
Produces output like:
channel-1 May 03 03:50:41 2009 192.168.160.247 127.0.0.1 5651 102401
-
Emulate Boost.Format's absolute tabulations (with a little indirection):
std::cout
<< boost::format("%1% %2%, %|20t|lives at %3%\n")
% "Mr"
% "Smith"
% "the Smith residence"
<< std::endl;
std::string scratch;
fastformat::fmtln(
std::cout
, "{0,20,,<}lives at {1}"
, fastformat::fmt(
scratch
, "{0} {1}, "
, "Mr"
, "Smith"
)
, "the Smith residence"
);
Both produce the output:
Mr Smith, lives at the Smith residence
Performance:
FastFormat's performance has been extensively tested, and in every case it has superior performance
to the C++ standard library's IOStreams, Boost.Format and Loki.SafeFormat. In most cases it has
equivalent performance to the (type-unsafe) C standard library's Streams (printf()-family).
Test results are included on the project website,
and in the first in the Overload article series;
the third article in the series has a further set of four performance tests, based on real-world uses of
FastFormat in commercial projects.
Features:
- 100% type-safe
- Presents a natural syntax
- Infinitely extensible
- Highly-efficient:
- no intermediate memory allocations
- no intermediate string copying
- no repetition of any string-length calculations
- at most one allocation required to produce the resultant string
- Verified with Borland, Metrowerks' CodeWarrior, Digital Mars, GCC, Intel, and Visual C++ compilers
- Verified on Linux, Mac OS-X, and Windows
Requirements:
STLSoft libraries (1.9.1 beta 81 or later); 100% header-only open-source.

FFTPACK++ - C++ version of FFTPACK
FFT_Pack is a C++ wrapper for FFTPACK complex routines using LAPACK++ Matrix and Vector classes. FFTPACK routines were converted to C using f2c and also modified to use double precision complex using -r8 to f2c.
Most of this code was lifted directly from GNU OCTAVE v1.1.0, hence the copyright notice at the top.
The forward FFT takes you to freq domain (ala direction == -1), and backward the other way.
Passing LaVectorComplex/Double or LaGenMatComplex/Double with one dimension set to 1 will implicitly perform 1D FFT on the data.
The members of the FFT_Pack class are declared static, since they really need no private member storage. There are two types of transform routines: ones that return a new complex matrix and the ones that change the matrix in place.
The original FFTPACK does not appear to be available any more, but I found the link below to a different (possibly improved) version.

GiNaC - Symbolic computation embedded in C++
GiNaC is an iterated and recursive acronym for GiNaC is Not a CAS, with
CAS standing for Computer Algebra System. It is designed to allow the
creation of integrated systems that embed symbolic manipulations together
with more established areas of compute r science (like computation-
intense numeric applications, graphical interfaces, etc.) under one roof.
It is distributed under the terms and conditions of the GNU general public
license GPL.
It implements a class hierarchy with the basic classes needed to create
symbolic expressions, including abritrary length/precision numbers
(drawing from the CLN library). The classes provide basic symbolic
manipulations as well as memory management through reference counting,
disk-I/O, etc. Using the Cint C/C++ interpreter it is even possible to
use it in an interactive manner.
It is written in standard C++ and should compile on any compliant
compiler. Since it has to be linked with CLN, however, it is somewhat
tricky (but not impossible) to do so on other compilers than GCC.

GRETA Regular Expression Template Archive - Fast, Perl 5-compliant regular expression template library for C++
GRETA is a (yet another) C++ template library for regular expression pattern matching. It was developed in Microsoft Research. GRETA's distinguishing features are: high performance, Perl compatibility, and clean STL integration. You can perform matches with any bidirectional iterator type, or on a std::basic_string, or on a C-style NULL-terminated string. It supports wide and narrow character types (wchar_t and char) and respects the C locale setting (as specified by setlocale()). GRETA lets you customize regular expression syntax via a syntax module template parameter. Perl 5 and Basic POSIX syntax modules are included.

GTL - The Graph Template Library
The Standard Template Library (STL) is supposed to become a
part of the C++ standard library and therefore is an ideal basis
when writing portable programs.
Unfortunately, STL has no support for graphs and graph
algorithms. However, graphs are widely used to model complex relational
structures.
Since we are intensively working with graph algorithms and Graphlet, we decided to
implement GTL, a graph library based on STL. For the design of GTL's API the
API of LEDA has served as a
basis. GTL contains the classes needed to work with graphs, nodes and edges
and some basic algorithms as building blocks for more complex graph
algorithms. Further algorithms are under work.

kplib - Basic but highly optimised C++ library
The library consists of the following classes:
- KPList<T>
A two-way list that assumes nothing about its elements except they
correctly implement a default constructor and operator=().
- KPComparableList<T>
A subclass of KPList<T> which also assumes its elements can be
compared with operator==(), thus providing more powerful methods.
- KPSortableList<T>
A subclass of KPComparableList<T> which also assumes its elements
can be compared with operator<(), thus providing more powerful
methods.
- KPReadOnlyIterator<T>
An iterator with pointer-like semantics which can iterate over any
of the above lists for reading purposes only.
- KPIterator<T>
An iterator with pointer-like semantics which can iterate over any
of the above lists for the purpose of reading, modifying, deleting,
or adding elements to or from arbitrary locations in the list.
- KPArray<T>
A dynamically-sizable array that assumes nothing about its
elements except they correctly implement a default constructor
and operator=().
- KPComparableArray<T>
A subclass of KPArray<T> which also assumes its elements can be
compared with operator==(), thus providing more powerful methods.
- KPSortableArray<T>
A subclass of KPComparableArray<T> which also assumes its elements
can be compared with operator<(), thus providing more powerful
methods.
- KPQueue<T>
A queue that assumes nothing about its elements except they
correctly implement a default constructor and operator=().
- KPPriorityQueue<T>
A priority queue that assumes its elements correctly implement
a default constructor, operator=(), operator==() and operator<().
- KPStack<T>
A stack that assumes nothing about its elements except they
correctly implement a default constructor and operator=().
- KPSet<T>
A set that assumes its elements correctly implement a default
constructor, operator=(), operator==() and operator<(). All
union, intersection, difference and superset/subset operations
are of order O(n).
- KPBag<T>
A bag that assumes its elements correctly implement a default
constructor, operator=(), operator==() and operator<().
- KPString
A string class which implements basic string functions and more

LEDA - A Library of Efficient Data Types and Algorithms
Provides basic data-types like lists, stacks, queues, trees, sets, partitions, priority queues and a few others. These are parameterizable classes, you may add your own datatype and have a priority queue ... An important datatype is a graph, these are also parameterizable and there are useful algorithms for them like shortest path, transitive closure, matching, maximum flow, spanning tree and others, we have implemented a few algorithms for dealing with perfect graphs, but these ar not part of the standard library. The latest part deals with computational geometry.
It can be used with C++ compilers which understand templates

libCON - C++ Game Programming Library
This is an easy-to-use C++ API for creating games, graphics, and sounds.
It is built over DirectX 6.0 and is meant to run in Windows 95/98 using
16-bit display modes. The library supplies a multi-level API to these
resources: keyboard, mouse, joystick, and the screen as a 2D drawing
surface and a target for 3D rendering. This library comes as a packaged
DLL, so you don't need to have the DirectX SDK at all, but rather only
the runtime components.
Changes: New features including AVI, mp3, fog, dynamic textures, dynamic 3D lights.

Lily (LIsp LibrarY) - Gives C++ programmers the capability to write LISP-style code
I think Lily will be useful in academia for instructors who want to teach artificial intelligence techniques with C++. The garbage collection mechanism employed by Lily is slow which will make it unattractive for commercial use.
Documentation is minimal. The "Lily User's Guide" (in file lily.txt) provides a good overview of the architecture of Lily -- the document is unfinished. All of the example programs are from Winston's book "LISP Second Edition" so you will be much better off if you have a copy. Steele's "Common LISP" describes the behavior of the LISP functions.

LinAlg - C++ Linear Algebra and Optimization classlib
- defines Matrix,Vector, subMatrices, and LAStreams over real domain;
- contains efficient and fool-proof implementations of level 1 and 2
BLAS (element-wise operations and various multiplications),
transposition, determinant evaluation and matrix inverse.
- There are operations on a single row/col/diagonal of a matrix.
- Distinct features of the package are Matrix views, various Matrix
streams, and LazyMatrices. Lazy construction allows one to write
matrix expressions in a natural way while imposing no hidden
temporaries, no deep copying, and no reference counting.
- LinAlg stresses Matrix streams, which provide a sequential
view/access to a matrix or its parts.
LABlockStreams may
span over an arbitrary rectangular block of a matrix, including the
whole matrix, a single matrix element, and all other block sizes in
between. Matrix streams are seek-able and
subrange-able. A stream or a substream are always created in-line;
they do not allocate any heap storage, and are safe.
- The package implements Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), and its
application to solving
Ax=b, where matrix A
does not have to be square, and b does not have to be a
thin vector.
- The package also implements Brent's univariate optimization and
root finding, Hooke-Jeeves multidimensional optimization of functors,
and Aitken-Lagrange interpolation.
- Every feature is extensively tested in the validation code (included).

Lodestar Database - Client/Server - High performance, non-relational database engine
Lodestar Database is a super fast, non-relational database engine which comes in either single user or network enabled, multi-user client/server versions. The network version comes with either a Novell server or an NT server with clients for Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT. Both versions have libraries for Borland C++, Delphi, C++ Builder and Visual Basic.
Lodestar Database has been in use for 10 years in the financial industry and has contributed to huge run time improvements in Credit Union software used throughout the US, but is just now being released to the public as shareware. Credit Unions with as many as 10 branches and thousands of users are currently using our database engine with sub-second response times. Statement runs are 35 minutes for a 35,000 member credit union with over 100,000 accounts and can be run while the credit union is open with virtually no degradation in online response time.

macstl - Modern generic programming for SIMD and the Mac
The C++ header library designed to bring the Macintosh into the
world of modern generic programming.
Generic programming is the art -- some say, the black art -- of
making software components super-reusable and yet ultra-efficient. Our
tool is the C++ template, and our result is code nearly as fast as
hand-coded machine language.
macstl was inspired by the premier generic library, the Standard
Template Library (now part of the C++ Standard Library), but with a
distinct Macintosh flavor. Many components let you use low-level Mac OS
X functionality like SIMD acceleration and memory copy-on-write easily
and intuitively.
Although macstl started on the Mac, it now has a cross-platform
look. Over 14,000 source lines of code compile cleanly on different C++
compilers. The SIMD classes work seamlessly on PowerPC’s running Mac OS
X and Pentium’s running Windows XP.
macstl provides these sets of classes:
- valarray -- numeric arrays highly optimized for SIMD architectures
like Altivec and MMX/SSE/SSE2/SSE3.
- vec -- a portable, extensible SIMD toolkit with intuitive, fast
functions; the trig functions and integer division can’t be beat so
far...
- mach -- allocator and partially specialized vector for fast
OS-level copy-on-write.
- core -- adapting Core Foundation and Foundation classes for
STL.
- com -- interface pointer and a fast, lightweight server
implementation for Microsoft COM and Apple CFPlugIns.
- mmapping -- treating files as STL containers.
The library is open-source and free when derived code is
reciprocated; for others, licensing is $99 (Personal) or $499
(Corporate).

Matrix11 - C++ matrix template class library (source)
This matrix template class can be used to perform common matrix
operations in your C++ program like any other built-in data types.
Though I have written this class in compliance with ANSI/ISO C++
standard, you may encounter some compilation problem, particularly with
older version of compilers, because all standard features of namespace,
exception and template may not be fully supported in your compiler. In
that case you may just want to disable any or all the above features by
defining the appropriate macros. I have included full source code as
inline functions in the header file so you can modify it if necessary.
The implementation is not optimized for performance and memory usage.
So it is not suitable for large and sparse matrices. But for small and
medium size matrices these should not be a problem, keeping in mind the
present generation of powerful computers.
Special requirements: An up-to-date C++ compiler.
Changes: Some conditional compilation code has been added for different
compilers.

mpatrol - A library for controlling, tracing and profiling dynamic memory allocations.
A link library that attempts to diagnose run-time errors that are caused by the wrong use of dynamically allocated memory. Along with providing a comprehensive and configurable log of all dynamic memory operations that occurred during the lifetime of a program, the mpatrol library performs extensive checking to detect any misuse of dynamically allocated memory. All of this functionality can be integrated into existing code through the inclusion of a single header file at compile-time. All logging and tracing output from the mpatrol library is sent to a separate log file in order to keep its diagnostics separate from any that the program being tested might generate. A wide variety of library settings can also be chan!ged at run-time via an environment variable, thus removing the need to recompile or relink in order to change the library's behaviour.

MTL: The Matrix Template Library - A library of generic components for basic linear algebra
The Matrix Template Library is a C++ class library for basic linear algebra. The MTL is designed for high-performance while at the same time taking advantage of the generic programming paradigm (ala the STL) to allow much greater flexibility and breadth of functionality. Many new and advanced programming techniques were used in the construction of this library.
The MTL is a low level library in the sense that the user must be conscious of the matrix type being used, and that all computationally expensive operations are explicit. The MTL is not a C++ Matlab. Nevertheless, the interface is designed to be simple and easy to use.
The matrix types provided include compressed sparse row/column, banded, packed, diagonal (and tridiagonal), envelope, array of pointers, and of course dense matrices. All matrix types share a common and easy to use interface.
The algorithms consist of the traditional basic linear algebra routines (from the BLAS level-1 to 3) which includes matrix and vector arithmetic as well as operations such as backward substitution and norm calculations.

NIHCL - (National Institute of Health's C++ Library)
NIHCL is essentially a mapping of part of Smalltalk's library into C++. It lies somewhere between OATH and COOL. It is a little better supported and there is a textbook by the author, Keith Gorlen, that is fairly good documentation. However, the Smalltalk hierarchy is not completely consistent (IMO) with the C++ strong typing nature. It is weakly supported.

OATH - Object oriented Abstract Type Hierarchy
OATH was designed as an experiment in increasing object-oriented reuse. It has a fairly high learning curve, but potentially higher gains if you are looking for a more flexible and robust abstraction. It is completely unsupported.

OptiVec - Vectorized functions library for Borland C/C++
OptiVec contains more than 3000 hand-optimized, Assembler-written
functions for all floating-point and integer data types, running, on the
average, 2-3 times faster than compiled C/C++ code of the same
functionality.
The following fields are covered:
- Vectorized form of all arithmetic operators and math functions
of C/C++
- Statistics
- Analysis (derivatives, integrals, extrema, interpolation)
- Fast Fourier Transform techniques for efficient convolutions,
correlation analyses, spectral filtering, etc.
- Curve fitting for a wide range of model functions from simple
linear regression to non-linear models with multiple data sets
- Graphical representation of data in Cartesian coordinates
- Matrix operations, e.g.: multiplication, inversion, LU
decomposition, singular value decomposition, two-dimensional
FFT, eigenvalues
- Complex number math
The vectorized implementation in Assembler ensures not only superior
speed; in many instances, the numerical accuracy is improved as well.

paintlib - Image file decoding
Paintlib is a C++ class library for image file decoding and manipulation. It currently supports the TGA, TIFF, JPEG/JFIF, Windows BMP, and Mac PICT formats. Data source and destination formats can be tailored as nessesary. Additionally, format-independent but fast bitmap manipulation classes are available.
Although there are a few Windows-specific functions, the library is portable. Makefiles are included for Microsoft Visual C++ (Win32) and GNU C++ (DOS and SunOS). Prerequisite is a C++-compiler with standard C libraries and support for exception handling. The library also requires support for 32-bit memory addressing.

Pantheios - The C++ Logging Sweetspot
Pantheios offers all the following features in one simple, portable, easy-to-use library:
-
Atomicity - all parts of a statement are emitted (or not) to the back-end
transports in a single action.
-
Efficiency - the length of each element in a statement is determined at
most once; the contents of each element in a statement is copied at most
once; memory is allocated for the prepared statement at most once
(and even then only if the total statement length exceeds 2047 characters).
-
Extensibility - the back-end transport can be customised by the user to
any conceivable transport, should the stock back-ends prove insufficient for a
particular need. The distribution includes transports over the following:
- SysLog
- both UNIX and Windows
- COM Error Object
- Adaptive Communications Environment (ACE) Logger
- Windows Debugger
- Windows Event Log
- stdout/stderr
-
Filtered - statements are filtered based on a 32-bit severity level,
incorporating, but not limited to, the standard eight levels described
by SysLog
-
Genericity - log statement elements may be of arbitrary type. Support for
a large number of known types is implicit because Pantheios uses the STLSoft
libraries. Extension to new/custom types is achievable by several different
techniques, which one selects as appropriate.
-
100% type-safety - Use of Pantheios from C++ is 100% type-safe (unlike the
unsafe printf()-family, or the IOStreams).
But above all else Pantheios adheres to the important principle of C
programming that:
-
You don't pay for what you don't use. If a statement at a given severity level
is not to be emitted, no conversions, no concatenations, no memory
allocation nor any other expensive operations are carried out.
The library is portable, and has been used on UNIX (Linux) and Win32 operating
systems. There should be no impediment to it working on any platform, or flavour
thereof
The library is compatible with a large range of C++ compilers. It even compiles with
Visual C++ v5.0!

PARODY - C++ DATABASE LIBRARY
Al Stevens has written a book on the subject called `Database programming in C++' or something. An article on the subject was printed in Doctor Dobbs Journal some time ago.
The nice thing is that Stevens also wrote a C++ library adding persistence to C++, and the source is available. The library is called PARODY and compiles under most DOS-based C++ compilers. A slight rewrite of the GUI- routines has to be done to make it compile under GNU C.
Perry Rapp says "The zipped sources in the ftp version include a license statement permitting source redistribution in the exact format of the zip file
(ie, unmodified and as original zip file). This is a more liberal policy than the license of the software with the book, which allows no source redistribution at all."

Library features:
- set & map containers with trie (digital/radix search tree) functionality - patl::trie_set & patl::trie_map;
- set & map containers with online suffix tree functionality - patl::suffix_set & patl::suffix_map - with linear time & space: 16 bytes per symbol, alphabet-independent;
- bunch of iterators over each type of containers - standard ([const_][reverse_]iterator), special ((post|pre|level)order_iterator), partial match iterators ([const_]partimator) and suffix_cont-special (match_iterator & [super_]maxrep_iterator);
- partimator's can be specialized with one of the decision functors: partial_match (filter strings with joker pattern), hamming distance (filter strings with Hamming automata), levenshtein_[tp_|ms_]distance (filter strings with Levenshtein automata with optional operations like transposition or merge-split);
- lowest common ancestor (LCA) requests with constant time after linear time & space postprocessing of the suffix_cont - patl::lca_oracle.
All features of this library can be examined with small demo programs delivered within.

PDBlib - Library for modeling a macromolecular structure
PDBlib is a class library written in C++ for modeling a macromolecular structure at the level of detail (excluding symmetry information) found in a Protein Data Back (PDB) file. A class is supplied to read a PDB file into a PDBlib representation. This class is independent of the actual representation and other forms of input, for example from a relational database like SESAM, are possible.
The library is made extensible by a close coupling between intrinsic and external classes. By writing only to the external classes you will remain compliant with future versions of the library.
You don't get source code. This is a temporary situation while we attempt to centralize bug fixes and additions to the library. If you find this situation unworkable source code is available by signing a copyright agreement which is available with the distribution.
The following files are available :
- PDBLib.1.0.SGI.tar.Z Compressed tar file of PDB object classes library and header files for SGI. AT&T C++ release 2.1 & 3.0 compatible.
- PDBLib.1.0.Sun.tar.Z Compressed tar file of PDB object classes library and header files for Sun Sparc station. AT&T C++ release 2.1 & 3.0 compatible.

png++ - a C++ wrapper for libpng
PNG++ aims to provide simple yet powerful C++ interface to libpng, the
PNG reference implementation library.
PNG++ is free software distributed under a modified variant of BSD
license.
Using raw libpng in C++ may impose serious challenge since lots of
precautions must be taken to handle initialization/deinitialization of
control structures as well as handling errors correctly. With png++
you can read or write PNG images just in a single line of C++ code:
png::image< png::rgb_pixel > image("input.png");

PNGwriter - A C++ class allowing easy plotting to (and reading from) PNG images
This class, which requires libpng, allows you to plot to a 16-bit PNG
file, saving it directly to disk. Plotting is as easy as specifying the
red, green, blue values and the x, y coordinates of the pixel.
It includes functions for plotting simple geometric shapes (circle,
rect, line), reading the colour of a pixel, reading in a whole PNG file
(great for image analysis), plotting and reading in HSV colourspace and
many others that might come in handy.
This class has proven tremendously useful for my own scientific
simulation needs, and I would like others to benefit from its use as
well.
It is available in both english and spanish, and is complemented by a
PDF manual and a website with examples, a forum, and so on.
I have only tested it on Mac OS X and Debian Linux, but I don't see why
it shouldn't compile on anything that has libpng.

POCO C++ Libraries - POCO are open source libraries accelerating development of network-centric porta
The POCO C++ Libraries (POCO stands for POrtable COmponents) are open source C++ class libraries that simplify and accelerate the development of network-centric, portable applications in C++. The libraries integrate perfectly with the C++ Standard Library and fill many of the functional gaps left open by it. Their modular and efficient design and implementation makes the POCO C++ Libraries extremely well suited for embedded development, an area where the C++ programming language is becoming increasingly popular, due to its suitability for both low-level (device I/O, interrupt handlers, etc.) and high-level object-oriented development. Of course, the POCO C++ Libraries are also ready for enterprise-level challenges.
The POCO C++ Libraries free developers from re-inventing the wheel, and allow them to spend their time on more worthwhile areas, such as getting things done quickly and working on the features that make their application unique.

PTypes (C++ Portable Types Library) is a simple alternative to the
STL that includes multithreading and networking. It defines dynamic strings, character sets, lists, and other basic data types along with threads, synchronization and IP sockets. PTypes also offers message queues as an alternative method of thread synchronization. Its main `target audience' is developers of complex network daemons, robots or non-visual client/server applications of any kind.
PTypes defines simple and intuitive interfaces. It is portable across many modern operating systems (Currently FreeBSD, Linux, SunOS, Mac OS X and Windows). All platform-dependent issues are hidden inside. A simple web server called wshare is included in the package to demonstrate the full power of PTypes.
And finally, PTypes is open and free.

Regex++ - C++ template regular expression library
A regular expression library for C++ which handles both char and wchar_t
types. Template search/match/grep functions allow for the searching of any
bi-directional iterator type, making seemless searches of non-contiguous
data possible. Customised traits classes allow for localisation and almost
endless customisation if required. The library is freely available, and
comes with full documentation + demo applications + regression tester.
Should work with any compiler supporting templates, on any operating system.

script - C++ interpreted language
This a set of C++ classes which create a new interpreted language which is freely inspired from "C" and HP RPL (that's calculators).
This scripting language is freely inspired by the C-language syntax and HP's RPL in the way of manipulating variables : - There are no variable declaration, but the first use of a new variable name must be a write (no read allowed on a undefined name). You can considere that the declaration is included in this first write. I find this way to do the declaration good to avoid use of uninitialised variable. - Control structures must have the prefix #. This language syntax isn't very beautiful but I found it cleared the code. - Functions exists through file separation : one file, one function. The behavior is the same as Matlab .M files. - A variable isn't type constant. This allows a variable name to change of type. Actually, 5 types can be used, but the structure of the program allows an easy add of new types : integer, strings, real, array and list.
The full source is provided and some examples of scripts.

Version 1.10 does not include C++ exception handling, and it therefore "more portable".
Version 1.11 has a number of changes that make it less portable. I recommend that you use version 1.10 unless you want to try out using exception handling, then you can try using version 1.11. If you use version 1.11, then you will need to catch exceptions in your mail client.

Texas Persistant Store
Texas is a free persistent store that can be used with standard C++ compilers, and works efficiently with very little modification to most C++ programs. It runs on several varieties of UNIX and should be very easy to port to most modern operating systems, such as OS/2, Windows NT, Mach, Windows 4.0, etc. (If things we hear are correct, Linux will provide the necessary virtual memory features soon, too, and Texas will be ported about fifteen minutes later. :-)
Texas uses "pointer swizzling at page fault time", an address translation techique that converts pointers from an abstract format to actual virtual memory addresses when pages are first touched and brought into memory. (A similar technique, invented independently, is used in the market-leading persistent store/OODB, ObjectStore from Object Design Inc.) This allows Texas to be highly portable, avoiding any assumptions about where a page of data will be an a process' virtual memory address space; it can also support very large addresses spaces efficiently on stock 32-bit hardware. (It could also be used to efficiently provide shared address spaces across networked heterogenous machines with different hardware address sizes, e.g., across 32- and 64-bit machines.)

uSTL - uSTL is a partial implementation of the STL specification.
uSTL is a partial implementation of the STL specification intended to reduce code size of the derivative programs. Usually, the STL containers manage their own storage with new[] and delete[] operators, which create strongly typed storage. Although type safety is a good thing, placing memory management code into a template necessitates its reinstantiation for every template instance used by the derivative program. This produces substantial code bloat, that is frequently derided by C developers and used by them as an argument that C is better than C++. The uSTL implementation solves this problem by factoring memory management code into a non-template base class, ustl::memblock, which performs unstructured memory allocation. STL containers are then implemented as template wrappers for memblock to provide a measure of type safety.

UTF-8 CPP - A simple, portable generic library for handling UTF-8 encoded strings.
Many C++ developers miss an easy and portable way of handling Unicode encoded strings. The original C++ Standard (known as C++98 or C++03) is Unicode agnostic, and while some work is being done to introduce Unicode to the next incarnation called C++0x, for the moment nothing of the sort is available. In the meantime, developers use third party libraries like ICU, OS specific capabilities, or simply roll out their own solutions.
In order to easily handle UTF-8 encoded Unicode strings, I came up with a small generic library. For anybody used to work with STL algorithms and iterators, it should be easy and natural to use. The code is freely available for any purpose - check out the license at the beginning of the utf8.h file. If you run into bugs or performance issues, please let me know and I'll do my best to address them.
The purpose of this article is not to offer an introduction to Unicode in general, and UTF-8 in particular. If you are not familiar with Unicode, be sure to check out Unicode Home Page or some other source of information for Unicode. Also, it is not my aim to advocate the use of UTF-8 encoded strings in C++ programs; if you want to handle UTF-8 encoded strings from C++, I am sure you have good reasons for it.

UVS - C++ library dealing with univariate statistics
The scope of the library is univariate (single variable) statistics. In particular, the following statistical operations are supported:
- distribution modeling: properties of commonly used statistical distributions
- process generation: creating pseudo-random variables with specified distributions
- sample statistics: for summarizing statistical data
- hypothesis testing: for determining if experimental results could just be noise
Although UVS certainly does not provide a completely comprehensive treatment of these topics, facilities are provided to extend the library by coding additional classes or functions yourself.
Two types of random variable are supported: discrete (integer type) for statistics derived from counting, and continuous (floating point type) for all others.
The intended user is an application developer.
Although the code has been extensively tested, a realistic appraisal of its readiness is "alpha".
UVS was written with Visual C++ 6.0. Since that is the only compiler the author owns, no other platforms or compilers are currently supported.
All UVS symbols are in the "uvs" namespace.
UVS functions do not throw exceptions. If an argument value which calls for an infinite result is detected the function returns std::numeric_limits<double>::max().
UVS uses the Cephes library. The required components from this library are included with the distribution of UVS.
UVS is free. Full source code is provided.

valarray<Troy>
Attempts at providing the functionality described in Chapter 26 of the draft C++ standard. None of the releases stick perfectly to the specifications of the proposed standard. Version 2.0 is a very deliberate step away from the draft as released in April 1995 for public comments in the USA: it is used as a proof of concept to support a revision of the original specs.
Some characteristics:
- heavy usage of templates and their automatic instantiation;
- avoidance of temporary arrays in array expressions;
- production of fast compact loops, but some overhead before entering those loops.

VTK - The Visualization Toolkit
The Visualization ToolKit (VTK) is an open source, freely available software system
for 3D computer graphics, image processing, and visualization. VTK includes a textbook
published by Prentice-Hall ( href="http://www.kitware.com/vtkhtml/vtkdata/HowToBuyBook.html"The Visualization Toolkit, An Object-Oriented Approach To
3D Graphics, 2nd edition" ISBN 0-13-954694-4 ), a C++ class library, and several
interpreted interface layers including Tcl/Tk, Java, and Python. VTK has been
implemented on nearly every Unix-based platform and PC's (Windows NT and Windows95).
The design and implementation of the library has been strongly influenced by
object-oriented principles.
The graphics model in VTK is at a higher level of abstraction than rendering libraries
like OpenGL or PEX. This means it is much easier to create useful graphics and
visualization applications. In VTK applications can be written directly in C++, Tcl,
Java, or Python. In fact, using the interpreted languages Tcl or Python with Tk, and
even Java with its GUI class libraries, it is possible to build useful applications
very quickly.
Finally, the software is a true visualization system, it doesn't just let you
visualize geometry. VTK supports a wide variety of visualization algorithms including
scalar, vector, tensor, texture, and volumetric methods; and advanced modeling
techniques like implicit modelling, polygon reduction, mesh smoothing, cutting,
contouring, and Delaunay triangulation. Moreover, we have directly integrated dozens
of imaging algorithms into the system so you can mix 2D imaging / 3D graphics
algorithms and data.

VTL - Views Template Library - Filtering and Transformation container adaptors
VTL provides container adaptors to allow selected data from a container to
appear as if it was its own container. VTL adaptors do not modify the
original container or data. VTL adaptors provide a STL complaint interface
which allows the new object to be used anywhere a STL container can be used.
The default arguments to the adaptors will generate code that has as much
functionality as possible based on the underlying container. Adaptor types
include, filter, transformation, zip, union, range, unique, intersection,
difference, merge, crossproduct, downcast, polymorphic and window.

VXCL - The Virtual X Class Library
The Virtual X Class Library, or VXCL for short, is a non-commercial open source collection of powerful C++ classes that encapsulate the complexities of Windows and Linux/UNIX C and C++ development. All classes are designed to use the C++ language effectively and efficiently, with minimal overhead added to the application being developed. Code size and execution speed for applications built using VXCL are inline with programs built using standard C code. There are no bloated multi-megabyte DLL's or shared libraries that must be distributed with applications using VXCL, as the code is normally (but not required to be) statically linked with the application.
From April 1996 until March 2001, VXCL was known as VWCL, the Virtual Windows Class Library. In the beginning, VWCL was intended primarily for Windows development, but support for Linux/UNIX was added in 1999. Today, what was VWCL, is used daily for development of non-Windows applications as well as Windows programs. To better express the capabilities of the library, and to atract more development input from the UNIX community, we decided to rename the library to more appropriately describe the features it can provide. By dropping the 'Windows' in favor of X, we leave open the opportunity to develop the library on (and for) platform X, which can be anything. The X does not mean X Windows. It is simply a generic term (variable X) which can be whatever you want it to be.

Wt (pronounced 'witty') is a C++ library for developing interactive web applications.
The API is widget-centric and inspired by desktop GUI APIs. To the developer, it offers complete abstraction of any web-specific implementation details, including event handling, graphics support, and pretty URLs.
Unlike many page-based frameworks, Wt was designed for creating stateful applications that are at the same time highly interactive (leveraging techinques such as AJAX to their fullest) and accessible (supporting plain HTML browsers), using automatic graceful degradation or progressive enhancement.
It comes with an application server that acts as a stand-alone web server or integrates through FastCGI with other web servers.

XMLFoundation - Provides a foundation for XML support in an application
As the name suggests it provides a foundation for XML support in an application, however this is much more than just another XML parser. It applies a unique approach to handling XML that allows your application code to focus on the application rather than traversing DOM or subscribing to SAX events. The most unique feature of the XMLFoundation is the object oriented encapsulation that provides XML support in the application layer. XMLFoundation allows you to easily integrate XML with your GUI, or with your server objects, and it natively supports COM, DCOM, and CORBA objects.
XMLFoundation contains a small, fast, and portable XML tokenizer that has been refined and optimized in many large software projects for about 10 years. My involvement with XML pre-dates the finalization of the XML 1.0 recommendation by W3C. For years, the only XML Parser that could match XMLFoundation tokenization performance was "Xpat" by James Clark - but as you will see the unique ability to bypass DOM and SAX altogether makes XMLFoundation the fastest solution available for moving XML to and from application layer objects - and it requires far less lines of code to do it.
The performance of the stack based XML parser is at the top of its class for non-validating parsers. Parsing and tokenization is only half the task, the other half is getting the results into the member variables, lists, and objects that they need to be in to be useful in the application layer - it is in that task that XMLFoundation is in a class of its own. The performance is unparalleled because the memory buffer that contains the source XML parses directly into your custom class objects without ever being copied or temporarily stored in a DOM tree. It parses directly into your lists, objects, arrays, indexed data structures, and all native C++ data types. It even has support for common containers of element data such as MFC CStrings. It's been used in Java too. That said, speed of execution is less impressive than the speed of development and overall reduction in lines of code required to effectively use XML in your application.
If you are building an application that does not use XML and never will..... XMLFoundation is still a very valuable tool available to solve many very common development tasks. The data structure classes alone ( List, Hash, Stack, Tree, Array, QSort ) are very useful. They all have "Iterator" objects so that data structures can be read-referenced by multiple threads at the same time without blocking. The interface is standard to all data structures. If you find MFC or Rogue Wave Standard C++ library data structures useful, you will likely find XMLFoundation data structures even more so.

Ct: C/C++ for Throughput Computing - Ct provides programmers with tools abstracting data-parallel programming
Intel developed Ct Technology with a singular vision: to provide programmers with tools that would abstract data-parallel programming away from the hardware, as well-known programming languages have done for single core processors, while also delivering forward-scaling performance across manycore and multicore processors. Ct technology assumes no specific processor architecture, but the underlying model requires a generalized parallel processing architecture as found in multicore and manycore processors.
Ct Technology provides several key benefits for developers:
- Reduce Errors in Parallel Programming by supporting a programming style that tends to avoid the parallel programming pitfalls which can plague parallel program development. Specifically, Ct Technology provides determinism, which helps provide certain guarantees about safety. Safety helps avoid data races and deadlocks, the two most often encountered parallel programming bugs.
- Parallel Programming that is readable with an expressive syntax that stays close the domain expert’s mode of expression. Ct technology excels at providing a framework that allows programs to keep a programming notation close to the notation used by non-programmer experts.
- Scaling across Multicore and Manycore Processors: Simply put, today’s programs can be ready for tomorrow’s hardware while getting the most out of today’s hardware.
- Fits into Existing Programs: Ct Technology allows for effective data-parallelism to be added into legacy programs using existing tools and programming languages. Ct extends C++ for data-parallelism allowing for compatible and incremental addition of parallel programming into existing programs without the need for completely new and incompatible programming languages.

CXT - C source code analysis
CXT (C Exploration Tools) consists of CFT (C Function Tree Generator) and
CST (C Structure Tree Generator). They analyse C source code of
applications, no matter how big or complex, and are useful to explore
unknown software and to support software reuse and maintenance. By pre-
processing, scanning and analyzing the source code, these programs build
an internal representation of the function call hierarchy (CFT) and of
the data structure (CST) relations. Several features and options allow
the user to customize the generated hierarchy tree chart output and to
get a large set of useful information about the source code. The results
can be stored in a database and recalled later. The recall utility can
be integrated into editors like BRIEF or MicroEMACS (DOS, Windows) and
provides a hypertext-like feeling for function locating. The output
calltree can be generated as HTML- and as RTF-file (Windows Help).
CXT is part of the SXT Software Exploration Tools which provide similar
source code analysis features for C (CXT), DBASE (DXT), FORTRAN (FXT),
JAVA (JXT) and LISP (LXT).

Debea database library - Debea is an Object Relational Mapping library (ORM) for C++
Debea is an Object Relational Mapping library (ORM) for C++. It allows you to map C++ objects to relations in various SQL and file databases.
By removing hand-written SQL queries (or csv file parsing) for serialization of C++ objects you can speed-up development of applications that needs to store and load their data in SQL or other database formats. Another positive side effect of using this library is that you will always have database schema strictly related to C++ logical model.

DocClass - Generates class documentation from source files
Docclass is a simple C++ program which reads in C++ header files, and outputs documentation describing the class hierarchy, methods, inherited methods etc.
Docclass has a rather dumb parser, but it should cope with reasonably sane C++ class declarations. It understands comments, and tries to group the comments with the appropriate class or method.
Docclass does not require templates, or nested classes, as many people had C++ compilers which didn't support them. With any luck, it should understand them a little in the code it analyses, though.
Docclass is Copyright (c) Trumphurst Ltd. I have made it available on the Internet for personal use only. Please do not use it in a commercial situation (except for testing to see if it is suitable) without first obtaining permission (mail address below).

D_Lib - C/C++ Debug Library
The D_Lib library provides a set of easy-to-use but powerful and easily configurable tools to perform a C++ programmer's daily debug as well as diagnostics needed by a system tester/maintainer. In fact the use of the D_Lib library gives very flexible debug printing with both compile-time and run-time management and also possibility to turn on/off (even run-time) some pieces of code without any recompilation. It is tested and used for several UNIX platforms as well as MS Windows NT/95.
Only requirement is a C++ compiler supporting templates.

LaKe - Make replacement
Yet another make replacement, but one that allows you to create your makefile in C++. A header and footer are added to it, and it's then compiled using your C++ compiler. Afther that it's run, and that's the point where your other sources are being compiled. Thanks to the lakeUsr extension library (which is included) many (possibly complex) compile commands can be given with just one simple function call.
Features of the lakeUsr library v0.2.0
- compilation of sourcetrees
- compilation of static libraries
- installation of libraries and headers

Generates fully cross-referenced class descriptions from .i files output by your compiler's preprocessor. Can extract comments from the source code and include them in the documentation (comments have to be immediately before the class, variable or method).
Pretty configurable - can generate the files in any language, for instance.
Has a few problems with some apparently correct syntax, and does not document typedefs, enums or global variables.

ModAssert - A library of ASSERT-like macros that can use rich booleans
In C and C++ the traditional assert function is used to tell the user that something unexpected happened, that might cause the program to fail. Macros were written to extend this mechanism, like ASSERT_EQUAL(a,b) to give a short explanation "lefthand is <9>, righthand is <10>". However, such a macros functionality can't be reused in any way if we want to have a similar VERIFY_EQUAL (which still evaluates its arguments in non-debug mode), or an ASSERT_EQUAL_MSG (to add a message).
The Modular Assert macros use Rich Booleans, to have a modular assertion framework where any type of ASSERT can be combined with any Rich Boolean or a simple boolean expression. This package has 16 different types of assertion macros (ASSERT, VERIFY, ASSERT_P, ...), which can be combined with any rich boolean to provide extra information (or a simple boolean expression). So one could write ASSERT(rbEQUAL(a,b)), VERIFY(rbLESS(foo(), 10)), etc. Furthermore, the macros allow an arbitray number of expressions to be evaluated and shown when an assertion fails. A level can be assigned to each assertion (Info, Debug, Error or Fatal). Assertions can be ignored per case, level or file.
They are released under the Boost License, which allows free use in any code. It was tested with Visual C++ and Gnu C++, but contains no platform or compiler specific code (except for the demo code), so it should be portable.

Rich Booleans - A library to make powerful debugging libraries like ASSERT macros
The Rich Booleans framework is a set of macros that hold extra information if the condition fails, so a developer understands what goes wrong. They allow modularization of assertions and other constructs that check conditions, so on the one hand we can have different types of assertion macros (ASSERT, VERIFY, ASSERT_MSG, ...), and on the other hand macros that replace booleans in the assertion macros to provide extra information. So one could write ASSERT(rbEQUAL(a,b)), VERIFY(rbLESS(foo(), 10)), etc. These Rich Booleans can even be reused in other situations, like a TASSERT macro in a unit testing framework, or in contracts. The macros just have to know how to handle a rich boolean.
A number of interesting rich booleans are in this library, like rbEQUAL_STRING that shows where two strings are different (taking care of mismatches and insertions in an intelligent way), and similar ones for ranges of iterators and STL containers. They can be combined to make powerful checks, like checking whether the integer values in one vector are smaller than those in another vector, comparing two vectors of vectors, or combining rich booleans with logical operations.
They are released under the Boost License, which allows free use in any code. It was tested with Visual C++ and Gnu C++, but contains no platform or compiler specific code, so it should be portable.

SNIP: A Programming Power-tool - SNIP takes in an IDL and uses it to create code according to code patterns
SNIP is a programming power-tool for generating code from rules, or "code patterns" (AKA idioms).
Sr. software engineers have often noticed patterns in their coding practices. SNIP allows those patterns to be captured and expressed in an executable template.
An IDL-like input form is used to define objects. That IDL is then applied to the template to create code that a user would normally have typed in by hand.
For more information, and an example, see the site that describes SNIP more fully at http://www.ultranet.com/~advsw

VCF - Visual Component Framework
A C++ framework that was created to provide a simple to use cross platform GUI framework, with many of the advanced design features of Java and Java's Swing, and Borland's Visual Component Library. In addition, the VCF provides advanced RTTI/Introspection features common in languages like Object Pascal, Objective C, Smalltalk, and Java, but not typically found in C++. The framework is divided into three main sections: FoundationKit, ApplicationKit, and GraphicsKit, in addition there are now two additional kits, the Network kit and the Remote Object Kit.
The FoundationKit provides all of the base classes for the rest of the Framework, as well as support for RTTI/Introspection, events, event listeners, properties, and basic streaming capabilities. The VCF makes use of C++'s Standard Template Library for it's collection classes, and has a number of template based classes to support the Frameworks RTTI/Introspection design. The VCF also makes use of C++ exception handling, multiple inheritance, and C++ namespaces, so compiler's that don't support these features may have problems getting the FoundationKit (and any of the other kits) to compile. The GraphicsKit provides a core set of easy to use 2D graphics classes, modeled heavily after the design of Java's Graphics2D architecture. This include support for 32bit color images, alpha channels, anti-aliased graphics primitives, basic matrix transforms, filters, image loaders, kernels, and easy to extend path classes. Image manipulation is allowed at the bit level for those who like to bit-twiddle, but higher level functions are/will be provided.
The ApplicationKit provides the classes used in the GUI portion of the Framework. This includes basics like windows, components, standard widgets (combo boxes, listboxes, trees, etc ), common dialogs, a basic layout manager, drag-and-drop, and standard windowing events. A simplified use of Model-View-Control design has been applied (sometimes referred to as UI delegate, where the Controller and View are combined ), similar to the way Java's Swing was designed. In addition it will also provide core services to extend the component framework with custom 3rd party libraries (DLL's or SO's) housing components that can be plugged into a the VCFBuilder tool, similar to Java Beans, or Borland's C++ Builder packages. The VCFBuilder is a simplified version of the C++ Builder IDE, something that can allow developer's to design their GUI's in real time, with out having to waste time writing code, and extend their set of components through 3rd party libraries.

Visual Programming Armoury - Visual Programming Armoury for C++ and Java
Visual Programming Armoury is an IDE for C++ and Java. It implements a
concept of multidimensional desktop. The ergonomics of VPA helps you
maintain large projects. There are 3 frameworks: C++, Persistence Smith
and Java. All of them are compiler-independent structured processors of
source code. C++ framework includes a designer of event-driven
composite GUI and a resource editor. Persistence Smith framework is
built upon the object-relational layer which allows you to interact with
business objects instead of going directly to RDBMS. An extended
semantics of C++ provides full-featured capability to program a
back-end's logic: queries and updates are issued against the object
model instead of the storage one. Diagrams of persistent class helps
you design applied object model. Thus a system that uses relational
database is engineered in terms of object-oriented methodology. All of
your code is completely portable between variety of database products.
The set of class libraries formalize GUI up to high-level primitives
which query, retrieve, navigate, edit data, aid input, do printing job.
Java framework supports class diagrams and reverse engineering of source
code.

XSD - XML Schema to C++ Data Binding Generator
Given an XML instance description (XML Schema), XSD generates C++ classes
that represent the given vocabulary as well as parsing and serialization
code. Compared to APIs such as DOM and SAX, the generated code allows you
to access the information in XML instance documents using your domain
vocabulary instead of generic elements, attributes, and text. Static typing
helps catch errors at compile-time rather than at run-time. XSD supports
two C++ mappings: in-memory C++/Tree and event-driven C++/Parser.
The C++/Tree mapping provides C++ classes that represent data types defined
in XML Schema, a set of parsing functions that convert XML instance documents
to a tree-like in-memory data structure, and a set of serialization functions
that convert the in-memory representation back to XML.
The C++/Parser mapping provides parser templates for data types defined in
XML Schema. Using these parser templates you can build your own in-memory
representations or perform immediate processing of XML instance documents.

DCE++ - A C++ API for Programming Distributed Systems
DCE++ is a set of ANSI C++ classes that enable the rapid prototyping of distributed programs. The goal of DCE++ is to provide a platform independent C++ API to the significant components used in distributed computing. Namely: RPC, threads, Security and Naming across the widely used distributed computing platforms such as DCE, ONC and WNT.
It is expected that by encapsulating platform dependencies inherent in setting up rpcs, security etc. in DCE++ base classes, program development time can be drastically reduced. Moreover, a foundation can be provided for developing *portable* distributed program development tools.
The second *evaluation* version of DCE++, version 0.4, has been released on Dec 2'93. The release includes C++ bindings for remote procedure calls over DCE and ONC. A C++ threads api for programming DCE threads. A C++ threads api for programming DCE distributed Time Service. The release is available free of charge upon signing a very liberal license agreement.
The license agreement is obtainable by anonymous ftp from hal.com. It is in the directory dce++. The same directory also contains the release notes for the 0.4 version and plans for 0.5 features. To obtain the code, please send the signed license agreement to:

OptSolve++ - Nonlinear optimization
OptSolve++ -- Software Components for Nonlinear Optimization.
The OptSolve++ optimization libraries provide a convenient and extensible interface for rapid nonlinear optimization of user-specified functions. OptSolve++ is available through the purchase of a commercial license.
The following nonlinear optimization algorithms: -nonlinear simplex (no derivatives required) -Powell (no derivatives required) -conjugate gradient (requires gradient of the function) -Levenburg-Marquardt (can use Broyden's method to estimate the Jacobian if function gradients are not available) -simple bound constraints can be imposed through a variable transformation approach.
Algorithms under development for the next release: -penalty functions to treat arbitrary nonlinear constraints -multidimensional nonlinear solvers (for root-finding)
OptSolve++ consists of the following components: -TxBase; reference counted N-D container classes, trait and attribute classes, exception classes, and cross-platform header files -TxFunc; 1-D and N-D functor classes providing wrappers for C++ function pointers or general user-specified calls to other -TxLin; reference counted matrix and vector classes, with all linear algebra algorithms required by the optimization algorithms, and specialized functor classes that require linear algebra capabilities. -TxOptSlv; implementation of 1-D and N-D nonlinear optimization algorithms.

C++ Data Object Library - Data structures combined with automatic persistence
C++ Data Object Library has a wide variety of data structures combined with automatic persistence (storage to disk). In many applications, using the library is like building your own OO database. The emphasis is on high performance and protection against allocation and pointer errors. The library can help practically any C++ project, but is especially useful for large and complex software projects designs such as VLSI CAD.
Uses a code generator. Data relations are represented as objects. Protection against pointer errors is achieved by using rings instead of NULL ending lists. Smart iterators permit to delete objects while travering lists. Several methods of storing data to disk, including memory blasting (storing entire pages of memory). Portable programs and data, schema migration. Data organizations: lists, collections, aggregates, trees, graphs, dynamic arrays, hash tables, pointer links, reference counting, many-to-many relation, dynamic properties (like in LISP), virtual (disk access is if a large array), run-time access to type tables.
The library is build on ideas described in "Taming C++: Pattern Classes and Persistence for Large Projects", by Jiri Soukup, Addison-Wesley 1994. Sells in full source, and runs with all major compilers. A C version with similar features but with a less elegant interface is also available.
No licence restrictions and no marketing tricks. You can ship the source of the library with your programs, except for the code generator. A complete regression test, documentation and support comes with the basic price. We are one of the oldest class libraries in business, and we stand behind our software. Prices in US$: $299 DOS,WINDOWS, or MAC $599 UNIX workstations Postage included in North America, $25 for overseas.

Distinct TCP/IP - TCP/IP for Windows Software Development Kit
C++ Class Libraries for FTP, Telnet and Windows Sockets.
Allows developers to develop TCP/IP applications without making calls directly to a C Dynamic Link Library (DLL). Applications are created using the Distinct C++ Class Libraries, which take care of establishing the connection between the client and server side of the application. All functionality normally associated with calling a TCP/IP application is taken care of by setting data members and by handling upcall events. Applications are notified of errors, connection changes and incoming data by an upcall posted by the library to the applications window, by providing a callback function to the library or by making polling calls to the library at frequent intervals.

DV Centro - C++ graphics framework for building visual language applications
DV-Centro provides robust graphics, event management and utilities for efficiently developing applications that use non-textual interfaces. Visual language interfaces allow programming through manipulation of graphic objects. By overlaying, juxtaposing or inter- connecting graphic objects, a user can interact and manipulate the application.
DV-Centro is designed for creating applications such as graphical editors and visual language applications - like diagram editors, finite state machine editors, simulation and control systems, etc.
It provides:
- graphics classes: primitives (line, point, circle etc.), rendering (Motif, Windows, Postscript), automatic damage repair, properties (color, fill, line styles etc.), transformations (rotation, scaling, translation)
- graphical constraint management for graphical connectivity and containment. For example, keeping lines connected to boxes while editing a diagram.
- event handling classes for platform-independent definition of events, states and responses used to define how the system behaves.
- mechanisms for graphical editing (n-level undo/redo, copy/cut/paste, save/restore etc.)
- utilities: run-time type checking, memory management
- classes to link data to graphics so you have "smart diagrams"
- Python bindings to Centro for rapid development without long C++ compile times

ExacMath - Quadruple Precision C++ Math Libraries
ExacMath is a quadruple and double quadruple C++ math library that supports the Borland C++ and Microsoft Visual C++ compilers. ExacMath supports real and complex arithmetic with three floating point data types. The epsilon real data type has a 128 bit mantissa. The dpepsilon real data type has a 256 bit mantissa. The cepsilon complex data type real and imaginary components each have a 128 bit mantissa.
ExacMath extends the capability of the Borland C++ and Microsoft Visual C++ math libraries, neither of which supports quadruple or double quadruple arithmetic. The ExacMath library of functions are the same ones found in the Borland C++ and Microsoft Visual C++ math libraries.
ExacMath libraries support DOS, Win16, Win32, 16 and 32 bit Windows Console Applications as well as MFC programs. ExacMath has an elaborate mecanism for exception handling that allows the programmer to trap an exception error message and continue executing the program after the exception occurred. ExacMath also has a library of functions that allow for processing of RMS and MRE errors automatically.

This is a C UI library, but it's written in an object-oriented style and is type safe for C++ use. The package includes a WYSIWYG GUI builder.
The tools are, reportedly, pretty full-featured. User-interface items have extensive abstraction (for example, they have a confirmation-type dialog that resolves to a push-pin and 'apply' button under openlook, but 'ok', 'apply', 'cancel' buttons under motif). Objects can be positioned relative to each other (rather than merely absolute position on the screen). Also, errors are handled with an abstract exception handling framework. They support internationalization of fonts (at least Japanese), money, and data formatting.
Some extra-cool features include memory leak detection and C-language objects for text (multi-styled, multi-font text with embedded graphics), list (spreadsheet-like for handling up to 2^31 x 2^31 cells with customizable displays), and graphics processing.

GEMSTONE Object Oriented Database
Briefly, GemStone is a full featured OODBMS with transaction control, multiple users, multiple platforms supported, client server architecture, active objects (ie, behavior can occur in the database as well as in the application using it), multiple language support, etc.
GemStone is actually quite a bit more than just a data repository - it is a full-fledged DBMS that is pure OO. You can access the same database just as easily from C, C++, or SmallTalk, or you can build entire database applications inside the database server, because it is an active server that runs methods written in our DML, OPAL, which is a dialect of SmallTalk. There are also high-level tools to aid application building.

Generic++
Class library with container classes and basic data types for the development of portable, object-oriented applications. Actually (Feb 96) won the readers choice award of "Objekt Spektrum", which is a German SIGS publication.
This C++ library is completely new. It is aimed at commercial users and implements a generous selection of application-independent basic classes. Its use frees the user from error-prone and time-consuming specific tasks (e.g. main memory management). All libraries previously available on the market are targeted more or less specifically on a particular system environment. However, it is becoming more and more urgent to make as many application modules as possible independent of a specific target platform. What gives Generic++ its competitive edge is the portability of its components and the way it takes account of other software engineering aspects.
Advantages:
- Implementation of the most important application- independent basic classes
- Availability on all standard operating systems and platforms
- Accommodation of the latest C++ extensions such as templates and exception handling
- Co-existence with other libraries
- High degree of runtime efficiency and low resource consumption
- Integrated debugging support
- Template-based, typesafe container classes with interchangeable implementation data structures
- Smart cursors
- Suitability for use in the development of client/server applications in heterogeneous networks.
- Support for multi-threaded applications
- Persistent objects
- Regular expressions
- System independent handling of file and path names

ILOG BROKER - Distributed Object Computing
ILOG BROKER: C++ library and preprocessor that extend the C++ language to transparently support Distributed Object Computing environments.
Developers can make any existing linked C++ application distributed, by minimally changing their header files. A set of about 15 keywords enable ILOG BROKER's preprocessor to generate standard C++ code.
Once the header files have been annotated, the preprocessor automatically generates the C++ source code to build the distributed application. Communication between objects is performed through the use of local surrogates calling methods on the real implementation objects across a network. The current implementation relies on RPC for the transportation layer. ILOG BROKER annotations have also been designed to generate IDL code for CORBA 2 specifications.
ILOG BROKER does not impose the use of a dedicated server. Each object in the distributed application can be both a client and a server to and for other objects, therefore providing a true peer-to-peer programming tool.
Cost: $5,000 per Unix-based development license. Preferred university rates available upon request.

ILOG SERVER - C++ object server implementing real-time groupware applications
ILOG SERVER is a C++ library and preprocessor for building reactive servers of C++ objects. It offers a client-independent external abstraction of the data, which ensures the coherence of the shared objects. Each client: - has its own API (Application Programming Interface) - only has to be concerned with the objects it manipulates - does not have to worry about other clients sharing the same objects
ILOG SERVER is an extension of the SmallTalk Model View Controller (MVC) architecture to manipulate custom C++ objects instead of fundamental data types. Developers describe object models by annotating their header files using about 15 predefined keywords. Once the header files have been annotated, ILOG SERVER's C++ preprocessor automatically generates the appropriate C++ code.
By extending the notion of a C++ pointer as a data member, ILOG SERVER makes it possible to easily build relationships with cardinalities between C++ classes that will automatically be maintained. This extension to C++ supports inheritance and relationships based on smart pointers.
Cost: $5,000 per Unix-based development license. Preferred university rates available upon request. Demonstration CD-ROM available

Libsetl - programming symbolically in C++
Libsetl is a C++ library that is designed for supporting symbolic computing in C++. Based on a very high-level symbolic programming language (SETL), libsetl offers a number of powerful features that are available only for advanced symbolic languages. These features include latent types, high-level constructs (sets, maps and tuples), high-level operations through polymorphism, efficient iterators, runtime type checking, automatic memory management, intuitive syntax, and more. C++ programs written using libsetl do not have common C++ errors like memory leaks or memory corruptions. Runtime errors are detected and handled gracefully by using exceptions.
Libsetl and its related files are proprietary materials. But free copies of precompiled packages are available for evaluations or education/research purposes.

Linpack.h++ - The jewel of C++ math classes.
Linpack.h++ includes all of Matrix.h++, plus all of the functionality in the original and well- established Fortran version; including solutions of systems of equations for a variety of matrix types, solutions of over- and under-determined systems of equations, incremental least squares solvers, etc. But, Linpack.h++ is a tru object-oriented library, not just a C version that compiles under C++: the traditional messiness of the Fortran version has been replaced with high-level, yet efficient, objects that make code far easier to write and maintain.
Prices range from $299 to $1195

M++
M++ isn't as well known as the RogueWave math.h++ libraries, but it has been around for many years. It has a number of features that distinguish it from the RogueWave classes, notably improved handling of temporaries.
M++ was explicitly designed to provide the functionality of an array language like Matlab or Gauss and it contains the Linpack, Eispack stuff found in RogueWave's Linpack.h++.
Dyad Software, also sell modules written in M++ for doing statistical work, including linear and nonlinear least squares estimation, as well as optimization, numerical integration, and differential equations.

MainWin - MFC on Unix (Microsoft Foundation Classes)
Developers can develop on Unix using the MFC library as on the PC. With
virtually no change to the source code compared to the PC version
(typically less then 1 per 1000) they produce unix version using the
MainWin libraries. Most advanced features of MFC are supported like OLE,
activeX, WinInet, multithreading, common controls.
The look and feel of the application on unix is either Windows or Motif,
and can be changed at runtime.
Requires the C++ compiler from the platform vendor.

Matrix.h++ - includes all the functionality of Math.h++.
For example: general matrices, vectors, statistics, complex numbers, Fast Forier Transformation (FFT's), etc. Matrix.h++ adds specialized matrix classes such as banded, symmetric, positive-definite, Hermitian, tridiagonal, etc. Because Matrix.h++ includes Math.h++, it can take advantage of Math.h++'s highly optimized low-level assembly routines, making it fast as well as graceful.

MFC Toolkit 2.0 - MFC extensions
The Toolkit product contains MFC extensions that make the programming job easier and improve your product. Examples of this include:
- a bitmapped button class that generates all required images from a single 16 or 256-color bitmap
- a class that allows subclassing of windows already subclassed by MFC
- a fully-customizable docking toolbar that extends customization even to allowing the end-user to edit bitmap images on buttons
- a class from which you can derive your own docking splitters
- a simple splitter window with dynamic reorientation horz/vert
- routines to find a runtime-class structure from its ascii name, check inheritan! ce using ascii names only, etc
These are just a few examples; the toolkit contains more than this, is shipped with an extensive HLP file and full source code, and works with both the 32 and 16-bit versions of MFC.

MtxVec - An object oriented numerical library for Cbuilder
MtxVec is an object oriented numerical library designed for RAD. The library features several new approaches to object oriented numerics and breaks some new ground.
Features:
Encapsulates LAPACK 3.0 and BLAS I,II,III with Intel MKL 3.2.1 Add-on packages available: statistics and dsp. Interfaces Intel NSP for vector operations. Supports SMP for matrix operations. Single and/or double precision supported. Intel Itanium (IA64) ready. Bottom up complete support for complex numbers. Results in 50 to 100aster code then fastest possible structred code (plain procedures) written in C/C++. Design structured in three layers: procedural, object and component; ensures good scalability. Trading space for time technology. Introduces object caching. Trading safety for time technology. Allows user controllable range checking. CPU specific optimizations supporting: PI,PII,PIII. Extreme ease of use and very short time to implement. Ideal for algorithm prototyping. Built in dynamic memory management with extensive support for debugging. Allows completely matrix-vector oriented programming. Requires only CBuilder standard. Support for future CPU instruction sets, without application recompile. (DLL replacement)
Demo (4.5 MB) includes performance and code demonstrations, trial version and complete help system.
A new version 2.0 of MtxVec has been released..
MtxVec adds the following capabilities to C++Builder and .NET development
environment:
- Comprehensive set of mathematical and statistical functions
- Substantial performance improvements of floating point math by exploiting
the P4 SSE2 and SSE3 instruction sets
- Improved compactness and readability of code.
- Significantly shorter development times by protecting the developer from a
wide range of possible errors.
Typical performance improvements observed by most users are 2-3 times for
vector functions, but speed ups up to 10 times are not rare. The matrix
multiplication for example is faster up to 20 times. For .NET applications
these factors should be multiplied by about 1.3. All comparisons are against
classic floating point assembler (!).
Key new features:
- very fast and clean operator overloading
- features a very large set of vectorized math functions

NeoAccess Developer's Toolkit - Cross-platform object database engine for C++ development
NeoAccess(TM) is a full-featured object database engine for use in Windows, Macintosh, Unix and DOS based applications. NeoAccess's feature set include: Blobs, part lists, iterators, swizzlers, temporary objects, multiple indices on a class, a powerful relational object query mechanism, a very small memory and file footprint and a streams-based I/O model. NeoAccess has the complete set of features that in-house and commercial developers need and an easy to use programming interface that hides internal complexity to keep C++ developers productive.
In much the same way that application frameworks are used to construct the front-end of an application, NeoAccess is the framework developers use to build an application's back-end. NeoAccess is a set of C++ classes that naturally extends standard application frameworks such as Metrowerks' PowerPlant, Symantec's THINK Class Library and Apple's MacApp on the Macintosh and Microsoft's Foundation Classes, Inmark's zApp and Borland's ObjectWindows in Intel-based environments. NeoAccess is very portable and can also be used without an application framework.
NeoAccess comes complete with full source code. The same NeoAccess source code can be used to build Windows ('95, NT and 3.x), Macintosh, Unix (all platforms) and DOS applications. The programming interface is virtually identical in all environments. NeoAccess-based applications produce single file documents that are binary-compatible across platforms. That is, a database built on one platform can be used on any other platform without conversion.
The NeoAccess Developer's Toolkit is priced at $749 per developer with no runtime licensing fees. It includes full source code, numerous sample applications, 450+ pages of documentation, and 30 days of online technical support.

NetClasses++ - C++ classes for message passing environments:
NetClasses is a set of C++ class libraries that is organized as an object- oriented software toolkit for distributed, message-passing based programming.
Facilities include :
Transporting objects over a network. NetClasses can transport: Arbitrary C++ objects derived from PostModern's TransObject class, arbitrary NIH- derived objects, and NetClasses Typed Objects.
- NetClasses Typed Objects provide an object-oriented data transport in which the structure and organization of objects is specified externally in configurable files using a simple, programming language independent abstract syntax notation, the NetClasses Abstract Syntax Notation (NASN).
- Remote method invocations (RMI). Using RMI, an application on machine B can invoke a method on machine A. RMI makes fault tolerance and connection management transparent to the application programmer. The RMI layer is built on top of the distributed services package that is described below.
- Reading and writeing all three varieties of NetClasses-transportable objects on streams using machine-independent external representations.
Prices :
- NetClasses Development License $1995
- NetClasses Runtime License $495
- NetClasses Source Code License $7995 (includes 3 runtime licenses)
- NetClasses training class $2000

NuGraf - Deveoper's 3D Toolkit
The NuGraf Developer's 3D Toolkit is a powerful and general purpose 3D graphics framework (in C, but C++ type-safe) providing full-featured hierarchical database management, modeling and high-quality "photo-realistic" rendering capabilities. The toolkit is designed as a complete "drop-in" solution for third party software vendors seeking to quickly and efficiently incorporate high quality 3D computer graphics into their software packages.
The toolkit provides all of the necessary components to build a complete interactive 3D modeling and rendering system. These components include a state-of-the-art "photo-realistic" renderer, modeling and database management, coordinate space mapping, object and polygon picking, automatic smoothing and processing of raw polygonal data (useful for DXF file import), as well as optimized wireframe output for fast interactive data manipulation.
The toolkit also handles all aspects of the 3D rendering process, alleviating the host application from dealing with such mundane tasks as error handling and recovery, color output conversion (for those output devices with few colors) and file/display output. It features all of the functionality normally associated with a high-end rendering system but neatly packaged into componentized modules.
NuGraf is ideally suited for:
- Inclusion into CAD packages which have a graphical user interface and existing 3D modeling capabilities, but no rendering features.
- 3D applications with weak or older renderers, or those that depend upon slow ray tracing.
- 3D applications which currently use real-time, medium quality renderers such as Open GL or 3DR.
- Developers writing 3D modeling applications which require powerful rendering capabilities, color conversion and scanline output to various devices.
- Any developer wishing to create a 3D modeling and rendering system from the ground up.
- 3d font creation programs.
Pricing: Development licences = $3500 for "Application Builder" version, $995 for "Render Extender" version. Royalties apply for commercial applications developed with the toolkit.
Highly portable, inquire about other platforms. Please refer to WEB site for further information, online API spec, extensive slide show and pricing.

rxstring - Regular expression library.
The rxstring library is an extension of the C++ stdlib string class. The rxstring class is a powerful alternative to traditional regular expression libraries. Because the syntax used by traditional regular expression packages is difficult to learn, rxstring uses a alternative notational system that is much easier to learn to read and write. Because indirection is a fundamental programming technique, rxstring regular expressions can be nested within each other using labels. Also the regular expressions can be self referential, this makes it possible to write very powerful regular expressions that can validate input just as a recursive descent parser does, but without the hassle of hand coding or resorting to a tool like yacc or bison. rxstring has much more than the usual search and match functions, There are a large number of functions that aid in validating, parsing, and modifying text. In spite of the number of functions, there is an underlying system that makes it easy to recall the entire library off the top of your head without much effort.

Time Series API - Professional time series modelling and simulation library for C++
Time Series API is a professional C++ class library for simulating (backtesting) and deploying financial trading strategies as well as general purpose time series modelling. The library is a stand-alone time series engine that can be extended via a component object model.
Models are defined using 'formula syntax and semantics' made possible by a set of lightweight interface classes that supersede the component framework. The library supports the modelling of even the most complex ideas, is easily extended, and supports deployment in any timeframe (variable or fixed, with intervals as short as one millisecond). The library also benefits from a set of highly optimized database classes for reading and writing millions of records in seconds.
As a general purpose tool for modelling time series, Time Series API has applications in many domains, such as:
- Trading and investment strategy simulation and deployment:
- Individual market and inter-market models
- Iterative evaluations on baskets
- Evaluation on aggregates (e.g. custom indices)
- Fundamental company data models
- Economic modelling
- Time series normalization and processing:
- Normalizing neural training data
- Data transformations
- Timeframe conversions
- Data monitoring (e.g. financial, scientific):
- Notification
- Pattern recognition
- Filtering applications, (e.g. noise reduction)
- Computational modelling
- Genetic algorithms

Undoable C++ Object Library - multi-level undo and transaction rollback
The Undoable C++ Object Library by Notation Software, Inc. supports multiple level undo and transaction rollback.
This C++ library implements an object-oriented approach for reversing transactions at the C++ object level. A transaction consists of a series of three types of operations on objects: creation, modification, and deletion. The reversal (undo) of the transaction is implemented by effectively deleting the originally created objects, restoring the state of the modified objects, and effectively re-creating the deleted objects. References between objects are properly restored. This approach can significantly reduce the cost of implementing multiple level undo in an application, compared to a ! procedural "reverse transaction" approach. Object level undo also supports transaction rollback in other scenarios such as caught C++ exceptions.
The $495 product includes a 100-page tutorial and over 300 pages of documentation in helpfile and printed format. A free demonstration version of the library can be downloaded from the Web site listed below.

Visibility for C++ - Create Windows GUI's without using any UI code
Visibility for C++ is a revolutionary new product for creating user interfaces. It enables object systems written in C++ to be visualized and interacted with via a state of the art GUI on the Windows platform and it accomplishes this without requiring any UI code to be written, generated or otherwise created. User Intefaces that would normally take weeks or even months to create, can be created in no time at all.
Visibility for C++ is the first in a series of products that utilize a new technology called Outerfacing. This new technology embodies a powerful new paradigm for creating User Interfaces for object systems called Object Visualization. This paradigm replaces the Model-View-Controller (MVC) paradigm on which almost all current UI technology is based. By utilizing the inherent structure found in an object system, it eliminates the need for the View and Controller portions of the MVC paradigm and all its attendant code requirements. In their place Object Visualization gives the objects in the object system the inherent ability to be visualized and interacted with directly.
Instead of having to write large amounts of UI code to implement the view and controller as is required with the MVC, Object Visualization places an outer face of UI elements over the object system structure and utilizes the internal state of the objects to control their appearance and behavior. This enables the entire UI for an object system to be created interactively while the program is executing without having to write any code.
Since creating the UI often accounts for over half of the entire programming effort, we firmly believe that this new paradigm is going to revolutionize the way that User Interfaces are developed.

Warne's Garbage Collector (WGC)
WGC is a full-featured high-performance C++ memory manager that includes:
- an incredibly fast explicit memory manager (drop-in new/delete)
- a parallel incremental generational non-copying collector
- a transparent just-in-time heap-checker
WGC's fast explicit memory manager provides a drop-in accelerated new/delete. Using a multi-tiered parallel algorithm with the first tier inline, WGC can allocate most objects inline in less than 10 instructions! To enhance space efficiency WGC uses address-aligned storage algorithms with no per-object overhead (no linked lists!). To reduce fragmentation, WGC maintains a single process free store for all threads, modules, and DLLs.
WGC's collector implements both conservative and accurate scanning and fully supports C++ code. Classes, arrays, scalars, interior pointers, unions, cross-heap pointers, anonymous unions (really!), large objects, library code you have no control over, etc. are all supported. Plus, you can incrementally deploy automatic memory management in existing or new applications, making some classes or objects collected and some not.
WGC's just-in-time heap-checker stays active during the entire development cycle, transparently checking every new and delete. If a check fails, WGC will spawn your debugger and take you live to the line in question. To complement the live access to the line that failed a delete check, WGC provides detailed pointer/object info (allocating thread/line/file/pass count, object allocation time in microseconds, etc.) Debugging extensions allow interactive display/logging of object/pointer status and process stats.
WGC is currently available for all major C++ compilers under Windows NT, Windows 95, and OS/2. WGC is priced at $895 per developer for all platforms, with no royalties. Team & Volume discounts apply. Source available. Ports to other platforms in progress.
Hans Boehm tells me that this is no longer available.
