- Hi!
-
- I am trying to resolve tricky situation. I have to write some specialized class library. This
- library must be portable across all major C++ platforms:UNIXs and Windows. That is why I can not
- use any compiler specific class libraries( like MFC for example ). On the other hand I am not in
- the mood( and my boss much less then me ) of writing some virtually standard C++ classes, like
- "string", "link list", etc. So I have turned to 3rd party C++ libraries, particularly RogueVawe
- Tools.h++. And here I have found out "catch22". You can use their classes as long as you do not
- expose them to your users. That is fine if you are writing application, but not acceptable for
- writing application class library.
-
- That is why I am asking if anybody has already been in the similar situation and how to deal with
- it? Does anybody know any good, royalty free, widely ported C++ class library?
-
- Any advice and info would be greatly appreciated.
-
- Regards,
- Jacob
