Booch Components

Rational markets the C++ Booch objects which are a somewhat bizarre, but
possibly quite innovative, set of library objects.

It appears quite complete (unless you have some specific, uncommon needs);
Booch may have an edge in supporting concurrency. USL may have more
installations and greater maturity.

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.

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 encapsulating 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
  - Framework 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 reliable handling of Motif resources
  - Automatic generation of make- files
  - Minimal training overhead

Price for source license (all platforms): 1200 DM, ~800 US$
Academic or private use license: 300 DM, ~200 US$

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.

Standard Edition:$495.00
Professional Edition:$695.00
Distinct TCP/IP Run Time: $100.00

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

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.

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

(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.

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.

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.

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.
