Free shared libraries software for linux

LBC Libraries is a set of easy C libraries that provide classical data types and structures (string, hash, queue, stack, tree).
LBC Libraries package is focused on simplicity and portability. It uses ANSI C (C98 standard not required), and provides the most generic approach possible so that queues can have items of different types, hashes can have keys of different data types, trees can be binary trees or have arbitrary numbers of branches, etc.
Enhancements:
- This release adds minor API changes, enhances the documentation, and fixes major bugs in LBCstring.

Software Render Library is an Open Source software implementation of a polygon-based renderer (like your graphics card).
Main features:
- Transform vertices (from world to screen coordinates)
- Lighting
- Apply fog
- Rasterization of points, lines and triangles
- Texturation
- Z-Buffers
- Alpha blending
- Output to several pixel formats
Installation:
1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute
`configure itself.
If youre using GNU `make or any other `make program that supports the `VPATH variable, you should instead create a new directory, `cd to it and type `../srlib-src/configure.
This way you can keep the source directory clean and have your sources in a directory which is not modifyable by normal users.
Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make to compile the package.
3. Type `make install to install the libraries, headers and documentation. At the moment, only static libraries are built; support for shared libraries will be provided soon.
4. You can remove the library binaries and object files from the build directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean.
There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.
Version restrictions:
- Read or write files and file formats, like png or jpeg. Software Render Library expects pixel data in a suitable format in a memory buffer.
- Read and process file formats describing a scene. Software Render Library only takes simple commands like "render this list of triangles" or "apply this certain light".
- Tesselation, i.e. dividing more abstract elements like cubes or spheres into lines and triangles.

The Adobe Source Libraries (ASL) are a collection of C++ libraries building foundation technology to allow the construction of commercial applications by assembling generic algorithms through declarative descriptions.
Enhancements:
- GIL version 2.1 (support for sub-byte aligned pixel values in images).
- An ASL version_0 namespace has been introduced to maintain binary compatibility going forward.
- There are poly< > library improvements. adobe/vector.hpp and adobe/closed_hash.hpp have been added as generic containers.
- There are many other improvements.

Oracle Aggregate C++ Library allows C++ programmers to easily create new aggregate functions for Oracle.

Oracle Aggregate C++ Library can be used as a glue library to existing C++ and C libraries. Detailed knowledge of the OCI aggregate interface is not required to use the library.

With automatic conversion of Oracle built-in types to C++ types it is possible to use the library without using any OCI functions directly.

The Oracle OCI interface for aggregate functions provides a straightforward way to implement aggregate functions in C or C++. There is, however, a certain amount of bookkeeping that needs to be performed in order to use the interface. The goal of this library is to take care of all the bookkeeping details for your, all you need to provide is the aggregate function itself. This makes it particularly easy to use existing C++ code and libraries in Oracle aggregate functions.

Design

The way the library works is that it defines the shared library entry point functions required by Oracle. The entry point functions simply forward all arguments to the static functions of the Aggregate class.

The Aggregate class along with a number of helper classes and functions takes care of converting arguments, configuring the environment, creating implementation instances and such. When everything is ready the arguments originally sent by Oracle are passed to your aggregate implementation.

libtrash project is a shared library which implements a trash can on GNU/Linux.
When preloaded, it intercepts calls to a series of GNU libc functions and, instead of permanently destroying files, moves them to a "trash can".
Enhancements:
- This version includes a performance fix that keeps it from significantly slowing down as you repeatedly remove the same file.

The Freiburg project is an infrastructure to replace shared libraries with a client/server interface. This system converts a shared library into a "service" using Unix or inet domain sockets for communication.
The "service" will be usable by any programming language without additional C programming requirements. An application is a composition of multiple services using an event-based message bus for communication.
A service can reside locally or remotely using the "client" or the inetd super-server for startup.
Enhancements:
API update
no libtool for build-environment
-significant speedup for build
-no libtool bug issues anymore
-no libtool porting issues anymore
update transaction work-flow
-no return-handles anymore
-no public transaction API anymore
speed improvements
-better internal caching of used objects
-improved header parsing
API now thread-safe
-need MUTEX lock for MqCreate
-need MUTEX lock for MqDelete

libapreq is a shared library with associated modules for manipulating client request data via the Apache API.
Generic Apache Request Library also includes language bindings for Perl (Apache::Request and Apache::Cookie). Functionality includes:
parsing of application/x-www-form-urlencoded data
parsing of multipart/form-data
parsing of HTTP cookies
Enhancements:
- This release adds some Perl/C API fixes and build improvements.
