Rogue Wave C++ Standard Library released into Open Source
|

| Hi all,
The latest release of the Rogue Wave C++ Standard Library, version
4.1.0, has just been released into public domain under the Apache
License, version 2.0, as the apache stdcxx project:
http://incubator.apache.org/stdcxx
The stdcxx project is a complete implementation of the C++ Standard
Library with a Class Reference, a comprehensive User Guide, and an
extensive set of example programs.
The project has been ported to a combination of over 40 compilers,
operating systems, and hardware architectures. The focus of the
project has been and will continue to be to provide a high quality,
cross-platform implementation of the C++ Standard Library with
consistent behavior across all targeted operating systems and
compilers.
To find out how to contribute to the continuing development and
enhancement of the library, or to track the progress of the stdcxx
podling in the apache Incubator, visit:
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/stdcxx.html.

| Many years ago, I had been told that Rogue Wave had "donated" their
current implementation of a String class to the public domain for use ISO
C++ Standardization committee as base document for what would become
std:string (partial to get a full-feature string class into the library,
partial to get a heads up on the competition on implementing it, and partial
because they were about to release their enhanced-but-still compatible-and
still copyrighted, next version)
.. Subsequent events have demostrated that litte if any of that story is
true, but it's nice to see, that a dozen or so years later, it has, in a
way, come about......
