Open Source C++ Object Brokering Software

omniORB is a CORBA object request broker for C++ and Python. It is very fast, robust, and standards-compliant.

Programming library for writing an XML-RPC server or client in C or C++. XML-RPC is a standard network protocol to allow a client program to make a simple remote procedure call (RPC) type request of a server. Like SOAP or CORBA, but much simpler.

dbus-c++ attempts to provide a C++ API for D-BUS. The library has a glib/gtk and an Ecore mainloop integration. It also offers an optional own main loop.

XPLC (cross-platform lightweight components) is a component system that provide extensibility and reusability both inside and between applications, being portable across platforms and languages, easy to use and having the lowest possible overhead.

MICO is a mature, secure, robust, fully standards-compliant implementation of the CORBA standard. It is available as GNU open source software and is widely used for robust application integration.

XmlRpc++ is an implementation of the XmlRpc protocol written in C++, based upon Shilad Sen's excellent py-xmlrpc library. It is designed to make it easy to incorporate XmlRpc client+server support into C++ applications and requires no other libraries.

JCom is a bridge library between Java and Com to enable COM object access from Java classes. Example: Creating an Excel worksheet, or using Visual Basic COM application from a Java application. See also this alternative http://com4j.kohsuke.org/

The Systems Biology Workbench(SBW) is a framework for application intercommunications. It uses a broker-based, distributed, message-passing architecture, supports many languages including Java, C++, Perl & Python, and runs under Linux,OSX & Win32. It comes with a large number of modules, encompassing the whole modeling cycle: creating computational models, simulating and analyzing them, visualizing the information, in order to improve the models. All using community standards, such as SED-ML, SBML and MIRIAM.

Boiler-plate code for bootstrapping CORBA 2.5+ applications. The goal is to create a set of cooperative services and components needed by CORBA apps. Essentially, a pre-fabricated CORBA infrastructure that facilitates component based software engineering

The CoreLibrary is a multiplatform object library for C++ (Linux, Win32, MacOSX, PocketPC). It provides many of the common objects found in Java (Strings, Threads, Collections, etc.) and has the ability to send objects across the network like CORBA.

The goal of this project is to produce a light weight C++ SOAP client library. Longer term support for WSDL.

Quercus Robusta is re-usable opensource C++ application framework. It supports refcounting GC, flexible polymorphic containers, portable multithreading and GUI.

XParam is an extendable, type-safe, object-oriented tool for general object serialization in C++, good for parsing command-line parameters, cross-program and cross-platform communication, object streams, and as a plug-in framework (using polymorphism).

autotools-idl is a patch for automake and some autoconf scripts that adds support for IDL and C++ ORBs. It provides full support for compiling IDL files to C++ stubs and skeletons. The autoconf scripts provide unified detection of different C++ ORBs.

The cplusql distributed ETL tool extracts and transforms row based data from databases and flat files for terabyte scale datawarehouse loading. RSN: beowulf job queueing and cluster fs! Every day at LookSmart, it translates 200+mm rows on 100+ nodes.

omniNotify is a robust, scalable implementation of the CORBA Notification Service for omniORB.

TACO is a toolkit for building distributed control systems or any other distributed system. It is based on a C/C++ core. It is based on the client-server model. It supports writing clients and server on Unix+Windows. Clients and servers can be written in

ACDK - Artefaktur Component Development Kit - is a platform independent C++-framework similar to Java or C#/.NET for generating distributed and scriptable components and applications.

An automation plugin for Winamp. This exposes a lot of winamp functionality through COM / ActiveX. You may use this to write VB or .NET or any other applications which interact with Winamp. Also supports internal script hosting.

AlchemySOAP is a C++ SOAP 1.1/1.2 protocol stack, licensed under the LGPL. It is fast, standards compliant, includes many automated unit/interop tests and other notable features (optional SSL and DOM support, etc.). AlchemySOAP is a fork of the EasySoap+

A virtual reality (VR) system for the Internet based on a secure distributed object system. ADR has been renamed and moved: please see new site interreality.org

A Lightweight C++ Object dynamic discovery and loading mechanism. Allows you to easily add plugin capabilities to C++ programs. Supports using XML files to map implementation classes to DLLs dynamically.

C++ Remote Method Invocation (C++ RMI) enables the programmer to create distributed C++ applications, in which the methods of remote C++ objects can be invoked from other C++ programs, possibly on different hosts.

stale libsigc++ extension project to add automatic marshaling of signals over a communication channel.

Framework for persisting heirarchies of C++ objects to and from XML. Boost, The STL and Patterns are used extensively. All platforms which support Boost will be supported.
