Features and Benefits
The SourcePro products provide the following features and benefits:
*Broad functionality. The Perforce SourcePro products contain the components you need for virtually any programming task in C++, with specialized functionality for networking, database access, business analysis, and extending applications to XML.
*Development of applications for global markets. Source Pro C++ helps you to internationalize and localize your applications. In general, Source Pro C++ does not assume that characters are in any particular encoding, and in particular can handle single-byte and multibyte encodings. For truly global applications, libraries in SourcePro provide support for Unicode string processing including regular expression searches, conversion between Unicode and hundreds of other character encodings, and storing and accessing locale-dependent data.
*Integration and neutrality. The components themselves work together across product lines, and work with a variety of industry-leading operating systems, compilers, databases, and threading libraries.
*Cross-platform extensibility. SourcePro C++ interfaces are consistent across platforms. In many situations, you can simply recompile and run on a different platform without rewriting code.
*Full source code. Products are sold with full source code that facilitates debugging and integration with other third-party libraries.
*Fully-tested and field-proven code. SourcePro provides a tested, reliable foundation for your applications, proven in hundreds of thousands of applications for more than a decade.
*Support and services from an established vendor. World-class technical support, mentoring, training, and professional services from Perforce Software support your efforts and help ensure the success of your project.
