Libcwd is a full-featured and well-documented library that assists C++ developers with debugging their applications.
C++ Debugging Support library includes support for ostream-based debug output, custom debug channels and devices, memory allocation debugging, run-time sourcefile:linenumber information, and demangled type names of variables. It is thread-safe.
Main features:
- End-users of an application dont need to install libcwd.
- The use of namespaces prevents name collisions between debug channels of different libraries.
- Debug channels and devices can be turned on or off on a per thread basis.
- All debug code can be omitted from the executable by not defining a single CWDEBUG macro.
- Code using libcwd looks clean and is surveyable as a result of using a few well-defined macros, avoiding the need of disturbing #ifdef CWDEBUG ... #endif constructs.
- Debug output is written to an ostream and as such type-safe and customizable as is usual for C++ ostreams.
- An arbitrary number of debug channels and debug devices can be created without any penalty in terms of cpu usage.
- Full support for all forms of iterative and recursive calls.
- Debug output is surveyable as a result of several possibilities to format the output, like a margin string, a marker string, indentation and fixed-width channel labels. All formatting is thread specific.
- Printing the type of arbitrary variables in demangled form.
- Printing addresses in source file:line number presentation.
- Deallocation pointer validation.
- Magic numbers around allocated memory blocks in order to detect buffer overruns.
- Printing an overview of current memory allocations, including start address, size, type of allocated object, source file and line number of allocation and a user definable description.
- Finding allocation information with only a pointer that points inside an allocated memory block, in logarithmic time.
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for x86_64.

Inline-Support is a Perl module created to support information for Inline.pm and related modules.
This document contains all of the latest support information for Inline.pm and the recognized Inline Language Support Modules (ILSMs) available on CPAN.
SUPPORTED LANGUAGES
The most important language that Inline supports is C. That is because Perl itself is written in C. By giving a your Perl scripts access to C, you in effect give them access to the entire glorious internals of Perl.
As of this writing, Inline also supports:
- C++
- Java
- Python
- Tcl
- Assembly
- CPR
- And even Inline::Foo!
Projects that I would most like to see happen in the year 2001 are:
- Fortran
- Ruby
- Lisp
- Guile
- Bash
- Perl4
SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
Inline::C should work anywhere that CPAN extension modules (those that use XS) can be installed, using the typical install format of:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
It has been tested on many Unix and Windows variants.
Enhancements:
- Perl

KDesktop transparency support is a KDE patch that adds support for real transparency to kdesktop. It adds two new composite manager related features. To activate the features kdesktop has to be started with the "--bg-transparency" option.

The first one allows you to change the opacity of the background image. This works currently with the beryl transparent cube and will also work with compiz once the transparent cube gets applied. To activate the feature add the following to your kdesktoprc:

[Background Common]
BackgroundOpacity=90 (0 = fully transparent / 100 = opaque)

The second feature allows compiz (and later maybe other composite managers) to tell kdesktop not to paint the background image ("_COMPIZ_WALLPAPER_SUPPORTED" x atom). In this case compiz is able to paint a viewport dependent background or to make it even animated. This feature looks for changes to the x atom, so that kdesktop will automatically switch back to normal background if kwin gets started or compiz stops to render the wallpaper.

This patch is against the current kde3 svn.
