POCO C++ Libraries
==================

Build Status
------------

- Travis: [![Travis Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/pocoproject/poco.png?branch=develop)](https://travis-ci.org/pocoproject/poco)
- AppVeyor: [![AppVeyor Build Status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/7iyrx3f233s3akae)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/obiltschnig/poco)


POrtable COmponents C++ Libraries are:
--------------------------------------
- A collection of C++ class libraries, conceptually similar to the Java Class Library, the .NET Framework or Apple’s Cocoa.
- Focused on solutions to frequently-encountered practical problems.
- Focused on ‘internet-age’ network-centric applications.
- Written in efficient, modern, 100% ANSI/ISO Standard C++.
- Based on and complementing the C++ Standard Library/STL.
- Highly portable and available on many different platforms.
- Open Source, licensed under the Boost Software License.

To start using POCO, see the [Guided Tour](http://pocoproject.org/docs-1.5.3/00100-GuidedTour.html) and [Getting Started](http://pocoproject.org/docs-1.5.3/00200-GettingStarted.html) documents.

----
POCO has an active user and contributing community, please visit our [web site](http://pocoproject.org), [forum](http://pocoproject.org/forum) and [blog](http://pocoproject.org/blog). 
Answers to POCO-related questions can also be found on [Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/poco-libraries).

----
In regards to Boost, in spite of some functional overlapping,
POCO is best thought of as a Boost complement (rather than replacement).
Side-by-side use of Boost and POCO is a very common occurence.

When contributing to POCO, please adhere to our [coding styleguide](http://www.appinf.com/download/CppCodingStyleGuide.pdf).

We use the branching model described [here](http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/).

All text file line endings in the repository must be Unix-style (LF).
This includes Visual Studio project and solution files (.sln, .vcproj, .vcxproj, .vcxproj.filters).
