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 […]
How does functional programming, pointers and memory relate to this mess we call economy? Check out at Bool Shift.
With the 1.4 release now delayed for a few more weeks, we will put out a 1.3.4 release in February. Focus of this release will be bugfixes (the known bugs in 1.3.3), performance improvements (I am currently spending some time with valgrind/kcachgrind) and other minor improvements. After that, we’ll hopefully finish 1.4 for a release […]
The new POCO website is finally online. As discussed previously, we have replaced the Tiki with phpBB and MediaWiki. For forum access, all forum users must reset their password. Posting Blog comments and editing the Wiki does not require an account, although we suggest you log yourself into the Wiki before you edit a page. […]
Here at Applied Informatics, we like to have fun at work. We recently built a Mindstorms vehicle that’s remote controlled by the iPhone’s accelerometer. To add some POCO touch to it, the iPhone does not talk directly to the Mindstorms NXT, but to a Digi ConnectCore 9P running Linux and a POCO-based application. Connected to […]
