On Monday, Dec 21, we will release 1.3.6p1, which is a bugfix release only, fixing the most severe bugs in 1.3.6. There will also be an 1.3.7 release early next year, containing a few new features, most notable support for an XML pull parser based on the StAX API, as well as HTTP Digest Authentication. […]
I am happy to announce that 1.3.6 is now available. This release contains both bugfixes (some critical), as well as a few new features. As always, the details are in the CHANGELOG. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release.
Franky Braem, the author of GLUEscript (successor of wxJavaScript) is working on POCO Javascript scripting engine (SpiderMonkey based) library. The engine is being developed to fit into the Poco::Script sandbox project, which already has a rudimentary Lua library. I looked over the code and liked it – it sure does look like a good old Poco-style […]
Last week I created two screencasts that demonstrate the Applied Informatics Remoting toolkit, which is based on POCO. Remoting allows you to easily implement network services, object-based IPC and SOAP web services in C++ by writing C++ classes with special annotations. A code generator then does all of the heavylifting. See it all in my […]
If anyone wonders what are those recent sandbox commits about, I’ve been working on some reports recently and opted to use ExtJS in conjunction with the sandbox JSON and PDF libraries. Well, the verdict is that those two sandbox libs are actually quite stable and usable. JSON even comes with ExtJS remoting (a.k.a. Ext.Direct) support. […]
For those of you on Facebook, there is now a POCO group.
… which is now C++1x (and hoping x is small number). Concepts were, in my opinion, really cool feature (types of types) that would have greatly improved template compilation error reporting and also provide help in documenting iterators as well as getting rid of traits. Stroustrup has put 7 years of work into the feature. […]
Version 1.3.5 of the POCO C++ Libraries has been released today. This is mostly a bugfix release, fixing some bugs in the NetSSL, Crypto and Zip libraries, plus a few minor enchancements. Upgrading from 1.3.4 is optional. Here is the CHANGELOG.
I am happy to announce that release 1.3.4 is finally out! Apart from the usual bugfixes, this release contains significant performance improvements as well as some nice new features, such as a writable XMLConfiguration, a refactored NetSSL_OpenSSL library, support for case-insensitive globs, a new Poco::Util::Timer class, new PriorityNotificationQueue and TimedNotificationQueue classes in Foundation, and much […]
I have just added a build configuration for the iPhone (using the Apple SDK) to the SVN Repository (will also be part of 1.3.4). So, now it’s possible to use POCO in iPhone applications with ease. Simply build the POCO libs for the iPhone, add the necessary library and header file search paths to your […]
