Portable libraries for Mac/Win/Lin?

I was just wondering if there is a site which has a good list of
libraries that can be used to develop portable code on Mac, Linux and
Winblows.
Any ideas?

Sorry if I'm Offtopic, but I didn't know where to post it.

What kind of libraries are you looking for? Graphics, physics, numerical
calculations... ? Boost (http://www.boost.org) is a good set of portable
libraries for all sorts of stuff.

Nikki Locke posts an "Available C++ Libraries FAQ" here once a month
or so. Use Google archives to search for the most recent one. There
you will find a link to the site.

Otherwise, just www.google.com.

Hi folks, I have a quite big class, which I want to use on UNIX-like systems and on win32. Until now, everything is absolutely portable. But now I need to read a directory and use the os dependent functions. So need to define and include different libraries and functions for both OS-types. How can I do this using e.g. compiler #define's that all compilers understand? And can I do this also inside of a function?

Hi, Perhaps this is slightly offtopic. Coming into the Windows world from Unix. Is there a reference on writing C++ libraries in a portable way. For example, right now I'm sticking "__declspec(dllexport)" in front of each of my classes. I guess I can still make it work on Unix bydefing

Hi, Can someone recommend a book that will teach me how to approach C programming so that code is modularised, will compile for different environments (such as variations of Unix and Windows), will be robust etc. As an example, I am developing a BSD Sockets suite which I want to run under various Unixes, including the Zaurus version of Linux, and also run parts of it under Windows.

Greetings, I am trying to create a class library/dll with C++ and I am running into a lot of trouble. I know that this is a C++ forum and not one specific to windows or VS 2005 but I'm hoping someone call help me. I would like to create a class library so that I can put classes that I reuse a lot into their own modules. I played around with it for awhile and had no luck. It was really easy to do in C# but C++ does not seem to be so...

My goal is to write a studio-type application which will initially run on Windows, but I would like it to run on other platforms with minimum efforts. I have made the decision to go with C++. Through advice obtained in this NG (thanks!) I was able to determine the available alternatives on the most obvious component that must be portable, i.e. the GUI library. I still have to decide among the 3 big ones (they are 3, right?).

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
