Lixoo: libraries, engine, tools & IDE

Wanting some Lixoo-ish stuff? Not yet, sorry. Big announcement will be done when Lixoo is released. Only «stable» releases will be available for download from here, if you want to hack inside Lixoo's code, you may want to access the CVS repository.

liblrt: Lixoo Run-Time library

This is an approach to the same problem that ZeroForce tried to solve coded in C++. It served to me (Themöebius) to learn lots of C++ ins & outs of this wonderful programming language. I don't know if Lixoo will be really using this library: I'm currently writing lots of code in Objective-C and I feel very comfortable with it and I'm coding a class library in it that resembles NeXT's Foundation, but it's lighter.

Here you have the download link, if you feel liblrt might be interesting to you:

Oldies

These are pieces of code that are not in active development nor being used toa achieve the completion of Lixoo. We do not plan to support this codebase anymore, but if somebody is making use of it and something needs to be fixed or changed, contact Themöebius.

ZeroForce

ZeroForce is a small C library intended to hide system-specific issues to programs that use it. Ideally, if a program uses ZeroForce it should compile in all operating systems which the library runs on without any change at all. This library is designed to suit the portability needs of Lixoo, so it will run at least in Linux, MacOS X and Windows 9x/ME/2000/XP.

The code includes some degree of support to make object-oriented programming using plain ANSI C (and one or two GCC-only features). It's a curious code as it uses a different approach than the used by GTK+, for example.

Lapse

Lapse is a very small, yet powerful, implementation of pooled resource allocation with single-pass deallocation of resources. Someone thought something similar might be useful when he read about resource pooling in Apache's documentation. «Lapse» stands for Lixoo Automatic Pools System Extension.

As of 2003-12-13, I am not really very satisfied with this implementation, but it is okay if we consider that I coded this in a hurry (it took only about four hours). Themöebius.
