C++ cross platform for processes: is POCO lib good? other alternatives?

Hi All

I would like to use some cross platform C++ library for starting, stopping and getting standard output for processes. I found and I would like to use C++ POCO libraries: are these good?

What's the best alternatives? I use Boost and they have Boost Process, but is not part of the official release and AFAIK it won't be neither very soon ( development stopped at 2008 ). Can you advise me a bit on this POCO lib or other? Thanks AFG

+1  A: 

I don't have any direct experience with the Processes lib in POCO but I'm a big fan of the project in general and the networking and threading libs in particular. Works great under Windows (MinGW & VS), OS X, and Linux.
