- CHANGES SINCE LAST SUBMISSION (November 1995)
- rtfm.mit.edu directory corrected
- DV-Centro entry added
- GAGS entry added
- MATCOM entry added
- Octo+ entry added
- ---------------------------------------------------------
-
- Here is the latest draft of a list of available C++ libraries I am
- compiling. I intend to post this once a month or so (unless there are any
- complaints). Sorry about the long gap since the last posting.
-
- It is submited to comp.lang.c++ and news.answers, and is available for
- public ftp (along with all the other Usenet FAQ lists) at rtfm.mit.edu
- (18.70.0.209), in pub/usenet-by-group/comp.lang.c++/C++-faq/libraries.
-
- Rtfm.mit.edu also has a mail server - send a mail message containing
- "usenet-by-group/comp.answers/C++-faq/libraries" to mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu.
- If you want to find out more about the mail server, send a message to it
- containing "help".
-
- Marshall Cline's C++ FAQ is also available from rtfm - the files are
- called _posting_#1_4, _posting_#2_4, _posting_#3_4 and _posting_#4_4, and
- they are in the same directory.
-
- 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.
-
- Entries are in the order I received them, i.e. totally random. Some future
- version might have the entries in alphabetical order, but don't hold your
- breath :-)
-
- If your library isn't mentioned, or you wish to update your entry in this
- list, feel free to mail me the new entry. 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.
-
- Suggested points to include in your entry are ...
-
- Name of package.
- Brief summary of purpose.
- Short list of features.
- Supported compilers, operating systems etc.
- Licence restrictions. Vendors may care to give an idea of prices.
- E-mail addresses for more details.
- Ftp site(s).
- Postal address/telephone/FAX numbers.
-
- Please mail comments, criticisms, additions and amendments to me at
- cpplibs@trmphrst.demon.co.uk. However, 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,
- try to find out about tools such as archie, whois, www, gopher etc. I
- recommend the newsgroups "news.announce.newusers" and "news.answers"
- for starters.
-
- *** *** *** *** *** 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 !

- Arjuna 3.2 - a suite of C++ classes and libraries 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.
-
- Available for research, evaluation, or teaching only. (Commercial
- usage is possible: contact the authors).

- valarray<Troy> (versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.0)
- [ Author is David Vandevoorde ]
-
- 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.
- Release 2.0 has been lightly tested with the following compilers:
- . various EDG based compilers
- (Apogee CC 3.0 on Sun, NCC on SGI and a few experimental
- compilers on other platforms)
- . Borland C++ 4.5
- . Sun CC 4.x
- . Sun CC 3.x (cfront-based)
- . CRI C++ on Cray (cfront based)
- . IBM xlC
- It will probably not work with g++ 2.7.0 or earlier.
-
- Free usage, copy and distribution if not commercial.

- XRLCAD -- CXrL CAD toolset
-
- This package contains a C++ class library to manipulate Structure (as in
- Calma/CIF) hierarchies. There is also loaders for CIF and Calma, as well
- as output drivers for these formats. A bunch of demo programs are included
- which I wrote when I was testing the library, and these programs turned
- out be quite useful tools.
-
- The library is still in its infancy, but it's reasonably solid; in a
- few months I'll take another look at it and probably overhaul it.
-
- I've successfully built a recent snapshot on the following platforms:
-
- sparc-sunos-4.1.3: SC2.0.1, Cfront-3.0.1, GCC-2.6.3
- sparc-sunos-5: SC2.0.1, GCC-2.6.3
- rs6000-aix-3.2: Cfront-3.0.1, GCC-2.6.3
- decstation-ultrix4.2: Cfront-3.0.1, GCC-2.6.3 (and I think it worked!)
- hppa1.1-hpux9.05: gcc-2.6.3

- program using any data representation and many different genetic
- algorithm operators. The library includes genomes based upon binary
- string, array, tree, and list data structures, and you can create your
- own genomes by simply deriving a new class from the base genome and any
- data structure that you may be using already. Many scaling, selection,
- termination, initialization, mutation, and crossover methods are included
- in the library, and you can override any of the defaults with operators
- of your own design.
-
- Free for non-profit use.

- FFTPACK++
- VERSION: 1.0
-
- 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.
- For example:
-
- LaGenMatComplex cmat;
- // ...
- // initialize cmat.
- // ...
-
- // the following computes the forward FFT of Matrix cmat and returns
- // a new matrix which then initializes a new matrix cmat2.
- LaGenMatComplex cmat2 = FFT_Pack::forward(cmat);
-
- // The following simply overwrites itself by reinitializing with the
- // anonymous matrix returned by FFT_Pack::forward.
- cmat = FFT_Pack::forward(cmat);
-
- // in-place example. In case of large matrices, it is best to try to
- // optimize memory usage using IP (in-place) routines. Note that you
- // can only use Complex matrices in this case.
- FFT_Pack::forward_IP(cmat);
-
- Prerequites/Installation:
-
- compiler: you'd need a C++ compiler (I've used both cfront 3.0.1
- and gcc-2.6.3) on a variety of platforms.
-
- LaMatrix++: You'd need LaMatrix++ class library from LAPACK++. Check
- out ftp://netlib.att.com/netlib/c++ if you don't have it.
-
- FFTPACK: you can use the f2c'd fftpack routines I've provided with
- the package, or you can use the original FORTRAN version from netlib.
-
- F2C: If your system does not have F77 compiler environment installed,
- then you would need libf2c.a (ie., libF77.a + libI77.a), also available
- from netlib.

- biologists, chemists and crystallographers. They include: Molecular
- Structure, Sequence, Standard Formats (PDB, CIF, GCG, etc), Geometry,
- Statistics, TextParsing, and a single container class (a dynamic
- Array). All documentation is in HTML, and member functions have *.c
- examples. I hope that the system can be extended as a communal effort and
- am piloting this idea in the C++ course at the Globewide Network Academy
- (http://info.desy.de/gna/html/cc/index.html)
- Version 1.3 will be posted shortly including an experimental
- script language (generated automatically from the *.h files) providing

- Objtran and Objdce
-
- Objtran is a set of C++ class libraries that provide a higher-level
- abstraction for programmers developing applications using OSF's DCE
- and Transarc's Encina. Objtran actually consists of two separate
- libraries -- Objdce and Objtran.
-
- Objdce makes it easier to write DCE applications by abstracting some
- of the more complex aspects of DCE. A class is included that can
- manage an RPC server, interacting with the DCE Name Service and
- Security Service as desired. Another class manages a client's binding
- to a server and encapsulates Name Service lookups. Other classes
- allow the programmer to use threads and various forms of
- mutual-exclusion locks, report errors consistently, utilize Access
- Control Lists, handle timestamps from the DCE Time Service, and
- perform UUID manipulation.
-
- Objtran is built on top of Objdce, and adds support for the Encina
- distributed transaction service. It is intended to be used with C++
- programs instead of the "Transactional C" macro package. It fully
- encapsulates the Encina TRAN and TRPC facilities with a few
- easy-to-use classes. It also provides an efficient recovery service
- for proper control of distributed transactions, and has support for
- the TM/XA service, allowing interoperability with XA-compliant
- databases. Support for the Encina Monitor is being implemented so
- programs may, with very few code changes, use either the smaller and
- more efficient bare Objtran environment or the more sophisticated
- Monitor.

-
- Till RTTI becomes a part of regular compilers (BC 4.0 is the sole implementor
- I think) these RTTI libraries provide an excellent tool for the same purpose.

- Aisearch - a package to make writing problem solving programs easier.
-
- Offers the programmer a set of search algorithms that may be used to
- solve all kind of different problems. The following search algorithms
- have been implemented:
-
- - depth-first tree and graph search.
- - breadth-first tree and graph search.
- - uniform-cost tree and graph search.
- - best-first search.
- - bidirectional depth-first tree and graph search.
- - bidirectional breadth-first tree and graph search.
- - AND/OR depth tree search.
- - AND/OR breadth tree search.
-
- Although this package is meant as a tool for developing problem solving
- software it is not meant exclusively for programmers that are familiar with
- the concept of problem representation and search techniques. The document
- accompanying this package first describes (though condensed) the theory of
- problem solving in AI and next explains how the search class library must be
- used. Furthermore, as the source code is richly commented and as also some
- demo programs are included the package should also prove useful to people that
- want to get acquainted with the subject.

- DOSTmUit - DOS Text Mode User Interface Toolkit
-
- Enables C++ programmers to add a CUA-compliant user interface to their
- DOS programs without getting involved in screen coordinates and other
- messy details. The programmer merely states which interface objects are
- required, and how they are to be placed on the screen in relation to each
- other. Those familiar with the ET++ toolkit for the X windows system
- under Unix will get the general idea.
-
- Includes a class documentation facility (DocClass) which will generate a
- large text file from the source code giving details of every class,
- structure, enum and extern in the toolkit. This program will also work on
- your own C++ source code. Source is provided.
-
- Supported compilers are Zortech C++ 3.0r4, Borland C++ 3.1.
-
- The toolkit is free for non-commercial use. Commercial licences may be
- obtained from the author.

-
- 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.)

- Lily (LIsp LibrarY) C++ class library which 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.
-
- Lily uses the GNU Library General Public License.
-
- Lily works well with GNU g++ version 2.4.5 (and probably earlier releases).
-
- Lily works with Turbo C++ for Windows but not with Turbo C++ (though the
- current version hasn't been tested with Turbo C++ for Windows).
-
- Lily does *not* work with AT&T's cfront because cfront does not handle
- temporary objects very well.

- GINA++ - An O-O application framework for C++, X11R5, and OSF/Motif
-
- Requires: AT&T 3.0 based C++ compiler (Sun C++ 2.0.1), X11R5, Motif 1.2
- Platforms supported: Sun Sparc, HP
-
- GINA++ (The Generic INteractive Application for C++) is an object-
- oriented application framework that facilitates the development of
- applications with a graphical user interface. It is written in C++ and
- uses OSF/Motif and X for the user interface parts. GINA++ comes as a
- library of C++ classes, 10 small to medium demo applications, and it is
- fully documented.
-
- Components of GINA++ are: (1) A C++ encapsulation of OSF/Motif providing
- easy-to-use mechanisms for deriving new widget classes completely in C++,
- (2) Support for object-oriented graphics (rectangles, arrows, circle,
- etc), (3) An unlimited undo/redo history mechanism, (4) supporting
- classes for data structures (list, arrays, etc), run-time type
- information, and a notification mechanism.
-
- The classes of GINA++ constitute an executable program - the generic
- application - which possesses the basic functionality and the user
- interface components common to all interactive graphical applications,
- but lacks any application-specific behavior. The predefined functionality
- and behavior is inherited by deriving subclasses from the existing GINA++
- classes. Application specific behavior is implemented by adding new
- classes and member functions. Differences to the standard application are
- coded by refining virtual member functions inherited from GINA++.

- LEDA, A Library of Efficient Data Types and Algorithms, by Stefan N"aher
- from Germany. It is available for educatioal purposes but its NOT in the
- public domain.
-
- 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, such as
- cfront 3.0 and g++ 2.4.5.

- OSE is a collection of programming tools and class libraries for C++. The
- core of the environment is the C++ class libraries, of which three are
- provided. These are:
-
- OTCLIB - A library of generic components, including support for error
- handling, error message logging, error recovery, program debugging,
- memory management, resource management, generic collections, text
- manipulation, date/time, operating system interfacing and event driven
- systems.
-
- OUXLIB - A library of components which primarily extends classes in the
- OTCLIB library to support features specific to the UNIX operating
- system.
-
- OTKLIB - A library of components which builds on the OTCLIB and OUXLIB
- libraries to allow integration of the TCL/TK library into applications
- using the event driven systems framework provided by the OTCLIB
- library.
-
- The C++ libraries are portable to a wide range of C++ compilers on the
- UNIX platform. Supported C++ compilers include those from ATT/USL (CFRONT),
- CenterLine, DEC, HP, IBM, Lucid, ObjectStore, SGI (CFRONT), SGI (DELTA),
- Sun (CFRONT) and Sun (NATIVE), as well as the freely available GNU C++
- compiler. If your C++ compiler does not support templates, it is possible
- to use a template preprocessor which is supplied with OSE. If your C++
- compiler support exceptions, they will be used. Portability to all the
- major variants of UNIX has been achieved. Supported platforms include AIX,
- BSD, HPUX, IRIX, Linux, NeXT, OSF, SCO, Solaris, SunOS, SYSV and Ultrix. In
- addition to being available under UNIX, the OTCLIB library has been ported
- to DOS, OS/2 and Windows NT using Borland, Watcom and Microsoft C++
- compilers.
-
- The C++ libraries have been fully integrated with the ObjectStore OODBMS,
- allowing instances of classes from the C++ libraries to be made persistent.
- The C++ libraries can also be used in conjunction with applications using
- Versant, although in this case instances of classes from the C++ libraries
- cannot be made persistent.
-
- In addition to the C++ libraries, a build environment is provided. The
- build environment greatly simplifies the writing of makefiles, making the
- the task of building applications, as well as the generation and
- installation of both static and shared libraries easy. The details of
- template instantiation for many of the C++ compilers is also hidden, making
- it possible to write makefiles which are portable between different C++
- compilers as well as different platforms. The build environment also
- supports tasks such as schema generation for the ObjectStore and Versant
- OODBMS, and testing of applications using tools such as Purify, Quantify,
- PureCoverage, TestCenter and Sentinel.
-
- Comprehensive documentation for the C++ libraries and build environment is
- provided. Documentation for the C++ libraries comes in the form of a UNIX
- style manual page for each class and higher level documentation giving
- examples of how to use the classes. The UNIX style manual pages are
- generated from the class header files using documentation extraction tools.
- These tools are provided with OSE and are capable of generating both UNIX
- style manual pages and Frame documents.
-
- Development of OSE commenced in 1990, being made freely available via the
- Internet in 1993. OSE was winner of CODA'94, the ComputerWorld Object
- Developer Awards, held in conjunction with ObjectWorld in Sydney,
- Australia. The category in which OSE was a winner was "Best implementation
- of a reusable development environment for company deployment".

- 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 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.

- ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE) C++ IPC wrappers (C++Wrapper).
-
- 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

- CB++ (CommonBase Database Access Library for C/C++)
-
- This library was written in 1989 as a basis for storing C++ objects in
- a relational database. The development of such a system was stopped in
- 1990 because of problems with the MS-DOS environment used in this time.
- My involvement in various user interface projects here in the institute
- and otherwhere made it sleep until last week.
-
- Okay, here is it. It is only the database access layer of the projected
- object storage system but it has some useful features which are provided
- by commercial tools out there:
-
- * Builds on the C language interface of a database, there is no need
- for a precompiler (like embedded SQL - which is totally unusable in
- combination with C++, at least it was three years ago...)
- * Very simple to use. Unlike the native C interfaces of the databases
- it is as simple as embedded SQL or some 4th generation languages.
- * Makes applications portable among different SQL databases. The library
- itself is relatively easy to port as the database vendor specific code

- DCE++: A C++ API for Programming Distributed Systems
-
- William Leddy, Arjun Khanna (arjun@hal.com)
- HaL Computer Systems, Austin, Texas.
-
- 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:

- DV-Centro is a 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
-
- DV-Centro is available on SunOS, Solaris and HP-UX. A Windows NT version
- will be available in 1996.

- 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

- 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, just
- to name a few: Sun, HP, AT&T, Borland, Microsoft, Zortech, Watcom,
- Digital, GNU, UNIX, Windows, OS2, Macintosh System 7.
- 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.

- 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.

- WinSockets++ 1.1: A C++ class library for WinSockets.
-
- The poster sent me the following paragraph. It has a little too much hype
- for my taste. (S)he also included a complete copy of the Programmers Guide
- - I am afraid I don't have time to read and summarise it here.
-
- This is more than just a wrapper for the WinSockets calls. It provides
- higher-level functions that make reading/writing to sockets very easy.
- Additionally, the Async aspect of the library makes using the
- asynchronous functionality of WinSockets *very* easy and your code *very*
- clean.
-
- It costs $50 which includes full source.

- Distinct 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.
-
- Supported compilers: Microsoft C++ version 7 and Visual C++ 1.0 and 1.5.
-
- Standard Edition:$495.00
- Professional Edition:$695.00

- Generic++
-
- Class library with container classes and basic data types for the
- development of portable, object-oriented applications
-
- 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-con-
- suming 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 mod-
- ules as possible independent of a specific target platform. What
- gives Generic++ its competitive edge is the portability of its com-
- ponents 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++ exten-
- sions 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 * Suitability for use in the development of client/
- server applications in heterogeneous networks.

- DiaViews++
-
- Class library for the development of graphical user interfaces
- (GUI) in OSF/Motif and C++
-
- This library combines the power of the OSF/Motif toolkit with the
- advantages of the C++ language by means of completely encapsu-
- lating the Motif objects (widgets/gadgets). This means there is a
- C++ class for every Motif object.
- DiaViews supports the structured, object-oriented development of
- Motif interfaces.
- C++ features such as rigorous type checks and virtual functions, etc.
- enhance the efficiency of the development process.
-
- Advantages: * Uniform C++ interface with OSF/Motif * Frame-
- work for generating reusable UI components * Use of callback
- objects * Interface with Dialog Builder, the interactive tool from
- Siemens Nixdorf for OSF/Motif user interfaces * Simple and relia-
- ble handling of Motif resources * Automatic generation of make-
- files * Minimal training overhead.

- BCM
-
- Class library for the support of inter-process communication (IPC)
-
- The class library BCM (Base Communication Module) supports
- both general communication (local and network-wide) and an inte-
- grated name service. BCM implementation is based on Internet
- Sockets, which use the TCP/IP protocol. This means that the C++
- input/output streams can be made transparent for use in inter-proc-
- ess communication.
-
- Advantages: * The user does not have to bother about platform-spe-
- cific details * Classes are available for transport, the dispatcher,
- data representation, the message header and the name service.

- OSQLIF
-
- Class library for the development of SQL database applications
-
- This library connects an SQL database with an application written
- in C++. The new options offered by the object-oriented language
- make it possible to implement a considerably more efficient user
- interface than is possible with the traditional `embedded' SQL. The
- aim is to set up a simple and efficient connection between an SQL
- database and an application developed in C++. SQL data types and
- both dynamic and static SQL are supported. This means that all the
- features of an SQL database can be accessed from a C++ applica-
- tion.
-
- Advantages: * The user can forget about a large number of data-
- base-specific details with regard to communication * Secure inte-
- gration in object-oriented C++ applications * When ANSI-SQL is
- used, the application can be ported between various databases.

- Galaxy
-
- 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.

- 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.

- ILOG C++ Software Components
-
- ILOG VIEWS 2:C++ library and editor to design Very Graphical User Interfaces
-
- ILOG VIEWS 2 high-level C++ class library is fully extensible and
- portable across Windows, OS/2, and Unix platforms. It includes:
- - portable resources, event management, and PostScript support
- - a portable multi-look gadget library
- - extensive 2D graphic object library including charts and gauges
- - PowerObjects such as graph layout, spreadsheet, and Gantt chart
- - management of multiple views & layers (for cartographic applications)
- - double buffering, infinite undo, zooming, and other editing operations
-
- The development of portable VGUI applications is accelerated through
- ILOG PowerEdit, an extensible VGUI builder that generates standard C++
- code. PowerEdit reusable components are provided with ILOG VIEWS 2 so
- that developers can create and distribute their own custom editors.
-
- ILOG VIEWS 2 Dynamic Variable mechanism offer an interpretor for
- writing C formulae between variables to control the attributes of
- objects. This allows for code-free animation and control of graphics
- objects.
-
- ILOG VIEWS 2 provides a message translation mechanism so that messages
- used in the interfaces may be translated dynamically. The look and feel
- of ILOG VIEWS 2 applications can be changed dynamically from Motif to
- Windows on all platforms.
-
- Platforms: DEC OSF/1, HP, IBM, Silicon Graphics, and Sun workstations
- (both SunOS and Solaris) as well as on PCs running Microsoft Windows 3.1,
- Windows NT, and OS/2 Presentation Manager. Demonstration CD-ROM available
- upon request.
-
- ILOG BUILDER:
- is a GUI builder that generates OSF/Motif interfaces in C and C++. It
- offers UIL read/write capabilities and tight integration with ILOG
- VIEWS.
-
- ILOG DB LINK:
- is a C++ library to connect RDBMS such as Sybase, Oracle, Ingres,
- Informix, or SQLBase to C++ applications.
-
- 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.
-
- Platforms: DEC OSF/1, HP, IBM, Silicon Graphics, and Sun workstations
- (both SunOS and Solaris)
-
- Cost: $5,000 per Unix-based development license. Preferred university
- rates available upon request. Demonstration CD-ROM available
-
- 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.
-
- Platforms: DEC OSF/1, HP, IBM, Silicon Graphics,
- and Sun workstations (both SunOS and Solaris)
-
- Cost: $5,000 per Unix-based development license. Preferred university
- rates available upon request.
-
- ILOG SOLVER:
- is a C++ constraint reasoning library for solving complex resource
- management problems such as scheduling, configuration, and planning.
-
- ILOG SCHEDULE:
- is an add-on library to ILOG SOLVER dedicated to solving scheduling
- problems.
-
- ILOG RULES:
- is a C++ tool for data monitoring in real-time environments. ILOG
- RULES embeddable inference engine applies rules directly on native C++
- application objets.
-
- ILOG TALK:
- is an object-oriented dynamic language offering a seamless integration
- with C++ class libraries.

- versions, access control, security, configurations. Kala does not
- restrict you to any particular model. Kala provides the mechanism, but
- imposes no policy.
-
- o Kala is available now on Sun platforms (SunOS / 68K & SPARC). A
- 80x86/DOS version is now available to alpha and early beta sites.
- Ports to Windows and MacOS are also likely in the near future. Any
- port is possible as NRE.
- o Kala's interface is ANSI C, also callable from C++.

- 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.

- 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.
