- Available C++ Libraries FAQ
- ===========================
-
- Introduction
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Dos and don'ts - (Mostly don'ts)
-
- - Do not reply to the posting of this list in the newsgroup, quoting the entire
- text. I get an average of one mail like this per month, which I have to pay to download.
- - 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 send me mail asking 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 pay to connect to the Internet,
- download your Web page(s) and summarise them. That's your job.
-
- 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 "http://www.trumphurst.com/cpplibs/" and
- "http://purl.oclc.org/NET/C++Libraries").
-
- Only this pointer is now submitted 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 file
- pub/usenet-by-group/comp.lang.c++/C++-faq/libraries/part1).
-
- Rtfm.mit.edu also has a mail server - send a mail message containing
- "usenet-by-group/comp.answers/C++-faq/libraries/part1" 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 should also be available from rtfm - the files
- are called _posting_#1_4, _posting_#2_4, _posting_#3_4 and _posting_#4_4,
- and they are in directory pub/usenet-by-group/comp.lang.c++/. Marshall
- tells me that rtfm often has an old copy, and that the latest copy is
- always available on his <a href="http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/">Web page.
-
- Please mail comments, criticisms, additions and amendments to me at
- cpplibs@trumphurst.com. 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. See
- also the Web "roadmap" to such services listed below.
