Let's say I want to profile usage of a single library which is used in many apps in the system. I'm ok with only statistical profile, not an accurate one (but that one would be nice too). What I do not want to do is to recompile every running program with profiling support. I'd like the profiling information to be dumped either periodic...
I'm looking for good exif (Exchangeable image file format) manipulation library for python. I prefer flexibility (e.g., ability to retrieve providers' proprietary tags) than processing speed. What would you suggest? ...
I am doing a little exploring simulation and I want to show the graphs to compare the performance among the algorithms during run-time. What library comes to your mind? I highly prefer those that come small as I'd love if it's easy for my instructor to compile my code. I've checked gdchart but it seems to be too heavy. I just want a sim...
I am working on a library where we want to determine how much of our library is being used. I.E. we want to know how many methods in our library are public, but never being called. Goal: Static Analysis Determine how many lines of code call each public method in package A in the current project. If the number of calls is zero, the metho...
I need to convert HTML4 input to valid XHTML (strict) in PHP5 for further processing (SAX for instance). Any suggestions? ...
Does anyone know of a library for easily dropping in parameters of angles and lengths of sides, and letting it automagically extrapolate the non-given angles and lengths using trig? Even if it had lame performance, it would be very useful for prototyping, and performance could be optimized (even supplying table lookup and the sort). If...
I want to be able to read the content of pdf files. I need to do that with C on Linux. The closer i can get to this was here but I think Haru can only create pdf and is not able to read them (not 100% sure). PS: I only need the plain text from pdf ...
I would like to find a Java library that will allow me to search for colours within an image with a tolerance. Preferably quickly. I know how I would do it if I had to write it myself, and it's not super difficult, but I'm hoping to find a library with features other than that principle one. I'd like to be able to also: Find another im...
I want to open .avi file (preferably any video file), to work with that video as a sequence of bitmaps (arrays) and then display it on the screen or save it to the file. What options do I have in .NET? ...
I have recently installed OS X on my MBP and am wanting to set up java3d on it. I have set this up on windows which proved a lot easier with the installer provided. the mac install instructions can be found here: http://inverse.chi.googlepages.com/README-unzip.html I have placed both the j3d and jogl libs in my home directory /Users/ma...
I've been out of the C++ game for about 10 years and I want to get back in and start on a commercial app. What libraries are in use these days? User interface (e.g, wxWidgets, Qt) Database General purpose (e.g. Boost, Loki, STL) Threading Testing Network/sockets I looking to be cross-platform compatible (as much as possible out-of-t...
These days there are so many different sites and environments where you can setup a portal and pull data from all over the place. Each of course expects the data in its own format. Do you know of any libraries that make it easy to publish to all these formats so that users can pull your data no matter which they choose to use? Of course...
The idea of unified authentication behind a single API like PAM is very attractive to me. However, PAM seems to be more oriented toward shell authentication and offer a rather limited set of features from its API and require system-wide configuration from a file. I'm looking for something like this for a CGI (C language) web interface t...
I had a short look at some popular plotting libraries but haven't found what I need until now. Basically I'm looking for a library or tool that generates a graph as it is known from school. That means not an axis description at the outer left and one at the bottom, but two crossed axes, mostly positioned in the center of the graph. You...
Hello, I am working on creating and linking shared library (.so). While working with them, many questions popped up which i could not find satisying answers when i searched for them, hence putting them here. The questions about shared libraries i have are: 1.) How is shared library different than static library? What are the Key differ...
Have a SomeLib.pro file that contains: CONFIG += debug TEMPLATE = lib TARGET = SomeLib .. Then in a dependent SomeApp.pro: .. debug:LIBS += -lSomeLib_debug .. How can I force SomeApp to build if I touched SomeLib in qmake? ...
I'm looking to connect to an existing ftp server, upload a file, wait while the server generates a report on it, and download that report back to the local machine in a vb.net 2.0 winforms project. Is there an existing FTP library that would be helpful to me for this? My task seems simple enough that I'd rather not get into the world o...
Hello, I recently had to program C++ under Windows for an University project, and I'm pretty confused about static and dynamic libraries system, what the compiler needs, what the linker needs, how to build a library ... is there any good document about this out there? I'm pretty confused about the *nix library system as well (so, dylibs,...
Hi, i have in fact two unamaged c++ libraries, one of them makes use of the other. Both are pretty big, so rewriting is not an option for me. I read some stuff about creating a managed c++ library which wraps arround the unmanaged code. But I don't realy get how to get started, and how to combine all this stuff in one Project... are th...
Everyone should know about boost. What are other helpful libraries for C++? If you need to mention specifics (like libcurl, freeimage) please note what they are specific to (web protocol, image loading). ...
