| POCO, the C++ Portable Components, is a collection of open source |
| C++ class libraries that simplify and accelerate the development of |
| network-centric, portable applications in C++. The libraries integrate |
| perfectly with the C++ Standard Library and fill many of the functional |
| gaps left open by it. Their modular and efficient design and implementation |
| makes the C++ Portable Components extremely well suited for embedded |
| development, an area where the C++ programming language is becoming |
| increasingly popular, due to its suitability for both low-level (device |
| I/O, interrupt handlers, etc.) and high-level object-oriented development. |
| Of course, POCO is also ready for enterprise-level challenges. |
| |
| The POCO libraries free developers from re-inventing the wheel, and allow |
| them to spend their time on more worthwhile areas, such as getting things |
| done quickly and working on the features that make their application unique. |
