Open Source C++ Build Tools for Windows

NSIS (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System) is a professional open source system to create Windows installers. It is designed to be as small and flexible as possible and is therefore very suitable for internet distribution. Being a user's first experience with your product, a stable and reliable installer is an important component of succesful software. With NSIS you can create such installers that are capable of doing everything that is needed to setup your software. NSIS is script-based and allows you to create the logic to handle even the most complex installation tasks. Many plug-ins and scripts are already available: you can create web installers, communicate with Windows and other software components, install or update shared components and more.

JSmooth creates standard Windows executable files (.exe) that smartly launch java applications. It makes java deployment much smoother and user-friendly, as it is able to find and run Java VMs by itself, or help the user get one if none are available.

A Windows Installer Database To XML Bi-Directional Converter. The command line tool msi2xml converts Windows Installer Databases (.msi) to text based XML files. The complementary tool xml2msi reconstructs the .msi from the XML file.

Mac binary format converter. Supported binary formats include: native, datafork+resourcefork file, applesingle, macbinary, services for macintosh, etc.

An easy to use Development Environment for OS developers to design, write, compile, test, and publish new or existing OS projects with ease.

Picnix is a set of Unix-like commands for Windows. It has: cat, chmod, cp, df, diff, du, fgrep, grep, head, ls, more, mv, psort, rm, sleep, strings, tail, tee, touch, uniq, wc, which, and pmake, which is largely compatible with Gnu make, and faster.

GNUDE is a complete suite of GNU C, C++, Fortran, and Java Cross Compilers, and the GDB CPU Simulator and Debugger for embedded microprocessor applications development. Targets development for ARM7, ARM9, and XScale applications.

Solution Editor (eS) is a free, lightweight, cross-platform, development environment (IDE) for Assembler, C or C++ programming, designed to interface with various compilers and debuggers (GDB,CDB). The environment allows you to develop and debug code for MIPS, ARM, AVR and any other processors for embedded solutions and desktop applications. It contains a minimum of settings for easy and convenient programming. The hardware debugging process is possible if you have the hardware and / or software for this purpose. (For example, the J-Link debugger is sufficient for debugging on an ARM processor) An example of a project of a console utility created in this programming environment here: https://intel-hex-file-processing.sourceforge.io/ Additional information in Russian can be found here https://sites.google.com/view/esrus/

Nullsoft Easy Installer is a tool for quickly creating and updating installers using Nullsoft Scriptable Install System.

it cleans project workspaces by deleting folders such as temporary file, object file, .class file . like intermediate files. it support a eclipse, visual studio ... etc.

"izfree" is a free collection of tools that aid the authoring of installation programs using Microsoft's Windows Installer technology. Using izfree you can author a robust installation program for your application.

ARIO is a C++ library for reading and producing archive files, which are commonly used as libraries of relocatable object files. See also ELFIO project.(http://sourceforge.net/projects/elfio)

The Austria C++ library provides a host of essential C++ tools including but generic factories, smart pointers, logging, unit testing framework and parameters/configuration system. The library will work with both Linux/GCC and win32/MVC++.

Netflow analyzing tools : JXColl - collector for Netflow (or XML specified) data Analyzer - front-end application for providing an user interface and output (graphs, statistics, etc.)

CORBA Component shell - shell above CORBA CCM

(moved to http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/demi) Demi is an object-oriented library for Gameboy Advance programming. The main purpose of this project is to standardize commonly used aspects of GBA programming with an integrated standard library.

It's new technology for Development Personal Creation/Customization Services , based on XML standard and DAFSM (Finite State Machine Theory) , using multiple call control protocols.

A thin graphical wrapper for freeware avrdude programmer. Primarly intended for integration into Code::Blocks (and practicaly any IDEs).

EclipseCppPack is a distribution of Eclipse, CDT, MinGW, GDB and wxWindows for Windows. All is packed together with some batch-files. It aims to be a simple C/C++ IDE with a very simple installation process. All parts are set up to work properly together

This project is targeted to consolidate Embedded Linux Tools Chain under Windows. Most of the cross complication tools are compiled using cygwin.

J-DAWN project is a Job-Directed Automated Web Navigator. It can retrieve network tasks, and schedule and execute them. Part of its power lies in the ability to define tasks using a graphical programming language based on an underlying XML foundation.

Janel is a free, Open Source Java native executable and launcher for Windows. Launch your Java application just like other Windows executables. Within the configuration file set the location of the JVM, any of the Java system properties such as classpath, and more. A choice of non-console and console applications is available. The process name is whatever you choose for your .exe file. Also includes the ability to use the Janel executable as a Windows service. Janel was created and maintained by Tim Kil. It is no longer under active development. Many thanks to all the contributors over the years! Anil Guntur, Steve Crook, Bruce Cowan, Gregory Payne, Alexander Eckert, Oliver Lingg, Michael Knigge, John Stroy, and Humphrey Clerx

LinBuild is a Python-based, simple and user-friendly build system for C/C++ on Linux/Unix. LinBuild adopts some concepts from Waf and CMake. LinBuild is simply a single script that depends only on Python.

The nsisPatchGen utility recursively compares two directory structures looking for changes to the files and subdirectories. It produces an NSIS include file containing functions that will perform a patch upgrade from the original structure to the new.

OOSys is a plan to create an object-oriented operating system based on classes and objects instead of files and programs, with a strong focus on both clean design and practical usefulness. As a start, we are developing a microkernel.
