Cross-platform C++ framework

There is a C++ Framework project introduced by Firmdev recently. It helps C++ developers make their applications faster and more convenient, concentrating on program's algorithms rather than routine operations. The framework is cross-platform and supports Windows and Linux operating systems. This means that you write the code once and the program will work on both Windows and Linux.

General features:
- Fundamental C++ components like dynamic arrays
- System threads, processes
- Sockets and network protocols such as HTTP and FTP
- Databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite are supported)
- Images converting (BMP and JPEG are supported)

The project is often updated so do not be surprised when the features you were just dreaming about are already included there.

Consider a simple example of echo server:

Code:

#include <ff0.h> //include Firm Framework
int main()
{
    using namespace FF;
    using namespace FF::Net;
    Sock lsock //listening socket
        , sock; //client socket
    //create socket, bind and start the listening to on 12345 port
    if(!lsock.CreateListen(12345))
    {
        Err::print(); //print the last error description
        return 1;
    }
    Base::Str str;
    while(lsock.Accept(&sock)) //accept a client
    {
        sock.WriteLnUTF8(L"Welcome to the ECHO server! "
                          L"Type a string to receive it back or type 'quit' to disconnect.");
        while(sock.ReadLnUTF8(&str)) //read line from the client
        {
            str.Chop(); //trim 'end-of-line' characters
            if(str == L"quit" //disconnect if 'quit' has been received
                || !sock.WriteLnUTF8(str) //send the line back to the client
                )
                break;
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

System sockets are used here for communication. The messages are in UTF-8 encodiing. Check out the full version of the article called 'Sockets in FF' <firmdev.com/article/ff/sockets>.

Firm Framework version 0.4 has been released on April 9, new features and improvements make your development process even easier and more convenient.

Firm Framework is offered under 2 licensing options:
1. Non-commercial license. If your software is non-profit, use Firm Framework for free!
2. Commercial license. If you are making commercial software, buy the license. Updates and technical support are included for a 1 year period.

Nice information thanks for dhare it.

 

Hey Guys,
Take some time to read about QT. It is also a cross platform C++ dev tool. It being used by Nokia and they have open sourced it. This is the link : qt.nokia.com
Hope this will help.
