POCO C++ Libraries - Powerful Cross-Platform Network and Internet App Development
The POCO C++ Libraries are powerful cross-platform C++ libraries for building network- and internet-based applications that run on desktop, server, mobile, IoT, and embedded systems.
Project Introduction
Summary
POCO C++ Libraries offer a comprehensive suite of C++ classes that simplify the development of sophisticated, cross-platform network applications across a wide range of devices and systems.
Problem Solved
Building robust, cross-platform network- and internet-based applications in C++ can be complex and time-consuming due to variations in operating system APIs and protocol implementations. POCO simplifies this by providing a consistent, object-oriented API.
Core Features
Network Protocols Implementation
Provides comprehensive support for networking protocols, including TCP/IP sockets, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, etc.
Foundation Classes and Utilities
Includes utilities for threading, data structures, file system access, and more, essential for complex applications.
Cross-Platform Compatibility
Designed to work seamlessly across various operating systems like Windows, Linux, macOS, and embedded platforms.
