For those Brave Souls with too much time on their hands and not afraid
to face insanity, Odin Properties is pleased to present OPP, the Odin
Plus Plus Class Library (name suggestions welcome!). The OPP home page
is at http://www.odin-consulting.com/OPP/
OPP is a C++ class library freely available under the terms of the GNU
LGPL (Library GNU Public License). OPP is in a very early stage of
development and is being released in the hope that people will find it a
useful and a worthy project to which to contribute. With or without
community interest, Odin Properties will continue to use and develop OPP
and make new versions available.
OPP aims to provide:
(1) An object oriented framework for cross platform application
development.
(2) The functionality found in the Rogue Wave class libraries;
especially Tools.h++, Threads.h++ and the network classes now part of
Net.h++
(3) An interface familiar to Java programmers and suitable for easy
porting of Java code to C++.
(4) A multithreaded embedded Object Database and corresponding database
server.
(5) An object oriented container framework. This functionality overlaps
with the capabilities of the standard C++ library, but follows a
decidedly different philosophy.
At its current stage of development, OPP fails to meet any of these
goals in any meaningful way. It does work, and Odin Properties is using
it to develop the next generation of Web Portal software, as used by the
Index of Alternative Operating Systems (http://www.indexos.com/).
WARNING: OPP currently only works on Linux and requires GNU make
(standard for Linux). It is believed to only be compatible with recent
versions of egcs.
Odin Properties is a division of Odin Consulting, Inc.
