1.2 Product Overview

Rogue Wave SourcePro C++ products are organized into four functional areas:

SourcePro Core contains an extensive set of fundamental C++ components, including classes for multithreading, advanced streaming, and XML object serialization. SourcePro Core also provides a complete Unicode-based framework for internationalization and localization.

SourcePro DB contains database and data manipulation classes that encapsulate SQL 92 in a C++ interface that is consistent across all supported platforms and databases. The included access modules provide access support for ODBC, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle OCI, and Microsoft SQL Server.

SourcePro Analysis contains a full range of C++ classes that encapsulate essential computational and analytical tools for business and research.

SourcePro Net contains network, Internet, and secure communication classes that provide a high-level C++ API to complex services, techniques, and protocols. SourcePro Net implements the most widely used protocols for traffic on the Internet, including HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, FTP, and the MIME message format.

The SourcePro C++ General Availability Release includes the DB Access Module for Sybase and the DB Access Module for DB2 CLI in addition to the access modules provided in the Evaluation release.

The Web Services Module has been removed from SourcePro C++. Rogue Wave now offers a more complete SOAP solution with its HydraExpress product. For information on HydraExpress, please contact your sales representative.

Within these areas, each SourcePro C++ product is composed of modules; modules are composed of either packages or class groups; packages and class groups are composed of classes.

The four SourcePro C++ products and their modules are shown in Figure 1.
