Free library software for linux

The Mango Library is a Java library consisting of a number of iterators, algorithms and functions, loosely inspired by the C++ Standard Template Library.
Enhancements:
- This release adds a further two iterators.

Aspect::Library::Wormhole is a wormhole between call frames.

SYNOPSIS

package A;
sub new { bless {}, shift }
sub a { B->new->b }

package B;
sub new { bless {}, shift }
sub b { C->new->c }

package C;
sub new { bless {}, shift }
sub c { ref pop }

package main;

print ref A->new->a; # without aspect, prints C

use Aspect::Library::Wormhole;
aspect Wormhole => A::a, C::c;
print ref A->new->a; # with aspect, prints A

Redline RPM Library is a pure Java library for manipulating RPM Package Manager packages. Currently the project supports reading and creating packages and has an included Ant task useful for integration with build systems. Support for package signatures will be added in a future release.
Enhancements:
- A patch has been merged that adds a Maven pom file, the directive for documentation files and directories, and user and group name attributes for files.

Parallel Genetic Algorithm Library (or PGAL for short) is a C++ toolkit for simply, efficiently, and swiftly producing genetic algorithm code that works across multiple processors.

This is useful not only for those with multi-processor computers, but also for distributed and cluster computing genetic algorithm environments such as openMosix.

Zild Database Library implements a small and easy to use database API with an easy to use API.
Main features:
- ability to connect to multiple database systems
- zero runtime configuration
- ability to connect using a URL scheme
- thread-safe connection pooling.

The Configuration File Library (CFL) is a collection of routines for manipulating configuration files. The project is a portable library fully written from scratch in pure ANSI C.

It is designed to offer for C programmers common routines for manipulating configuration text files.

GPM client library (libgpm) package is an stand-alone version of GPMs client library, used by many console applications for mouse access.
Despite the (now quite aged) GPM package it contains just the client part (no server), and provides a pkgconfig descriptor (libgpm.pc) for easy importing.
Enhancements:
- This release pulls in some outstanding patches from upstream and Gentoo. It adds a Gentoo ebuild file.

LiON Library is a full nonblocking, single thread library with an API that is portable and easy to use.
LiON Library has full network support, files, and pipes (for spawning children, or processes to communicate with). All types can also be rate (KB/s) limited, and full SSL support is included.
Main features:
- Nonblocking Networking.
- Nonblocking File I/O.
- Nonblocking pipe/system and fork commands for spawning helper programs.
- Event driven, event passback for all situations.
- SSL incorporated, with auto-detection.
- Portable (Already confirmed NetBSD, Solaris, Linux, OsX and Win32)
- Single process / thread library.
- Numerous Sample programs included.
- Support both in-library sleep/CPU-release, or in Application.
- Full buffering control, and flow control.
- CPS (KB/s) rate limits on _any_ I/O type. (Socket, File & Pipe)
- Adoptable foreign file-descriptors API.
- Clean API with documentation, although man-page comming.
- Direct, or event driven, failure modes supported.
- Exclusive File I/O locking optional, across all platforms.
- Internal compression optional.
- Very simple to use for line-by-line protocols, or binary chunk data transfers.
- Full UDP support
- Encrypted File IO support (blowfish, dependent on SSL)
- contrib/ sources include Directory listings library for all platforms.
- Python support! Using SWIG there now is an easy way to do async SSL in Python
- Timers! Callback timers in relative or absolute time. One-shot or repeat.
Enhancements:
- SSL connections could stall based on buffer size, so this has been fixed.
- Minor autoconf changes were made.
- Missing Win32 files were added to the dist-gzip file again.
