About c++ license.....

Does anybody know where is possible to obtain a license for some
programming language, c++ in my case, or software program? It was
sometime ago a site workbench.org or something like this, but I cannot
find it anymore.
Thanks in advance.

You don't need a license for C++, although some implementations
of C++ require one. One such example would be Microsoft's
implementation, a counter-example is g++ from gnu/gcc.

See the FAQ for more details.

You don't need a license (permission) for C++.
You _may_ need a license to own or operate a compiler
for C++.

Or are you talking about a certification (proof of
competency)?

A person doesn't need a certification to program in
C++ either.

OK, so I'm at the stage where I want to make a choice between wxPython and PyQt. Currently I'm using wxPython mainly due to the fact that it has GPL Linux and Windows versions.

I love the language. I love the community. My only complaint is that Python for Windows is built with Visual Studio. It is too difficult to build python, or a module, from source.

I don't feel very confident when it comes to software licenses. But there are some cases I would like to make myself clear. What I am particulary interested in is when does GPL license become restrictive? For example say a company has a proprietary software product that only works with MySQL and no other database system. Are the following cases legal? 1) This company sells his product under proprietary license and leaves it up to the...

The PHP license states the following: 4. Products derived from this software may not be called "PHP", nor may "PHP" appear in their name, without prior written permission from group@php.net. You may indicate that your software works in conjunction with PHP by saying "Foo for PHP" instead of calling it "PHP Foo" or "phpfoo" As the author of something released under the PHP license, can I, as I see fit, just grant permission to an...

Hi to all, i am coming from the Microsoft (.net) world and at the quest of finding the right GUI toolkit that i can use from Python, i have two obvious choices to choose from: wxPython and Qt. Both are looking very good. Qt has Qt designer, a tool that really reminds me of the forms designers that we have in VS.Net.The productivity someone can gain from tools like these can be really astonished.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
