Makepp, a build program which has a number of features that allow for reliable builds and simpler build files, is a drop-in replacement for GNU make. It supports almost all of the syntax that GNU make supports, and can be used with makefiles produced by utilities such as automake. It is called makepp (or make++) because it was designed with special support for C++, which has since been extended to other languages like Swig or embedded SQL. Some features that makepp adds to make are: greatly improved handling of builds that involve multiple makefiles (recursive make is no longer necessary); automatic scanning for include files; rebuild triggered if build command changes; checksum-based signature methods for reliable builds, smart enough to ignore whitespace or comment changes; extensibility through Perl programming (within your makefile); repositories (automatically importing files from another tree); build caches (not recompiling identically what a user of the same cache already did

tmake is a tool which auto-creates Makefile, IDE project files (and possibly even autoconf files !) from a very simple template format. The majority of tmake was written by trolltech (makers of qt), and this version on sourceforge has some enhancement

Overview of pre-defined compiler macros for standards, compilers, operating systems, and hardware architectures.

RPM Package Manager (RPM) is a powerful package management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating software packages. This is a port of the RPM software, including rpmbuild and yum/APT-RPM, to Darwin and Mac OS X

XPHP is an IDE authoring tool for Windows that allows you to design, develop, test, debug and deploy PHP applications. [This project has been discontinued since 2005]

ABIcheck is a tool for checking an application's compliance with a library's defined Application Binary Interface (ABI). It relies on ABI definition information contained in the library. Example definitions are given for GNOME and glibc.

Abuild is no longer being maintained. In the years since its creation, better options have emerged. Even so.... Abuild is a scalable build system that applies Object-Oriented principles to the build problem. It is powerful and flexible and helps ensure build integrity while simplifying the user's view of the build. A thorough user's manual is included.

Audited Objects (AO) is a tool for the analysis and optimization of automated software processes such as builds. It supports reuse of previously built objects, generation of prerequisite data, parallelization, etc.

A self-contained and portable build system derived from the traditional 4.4BSD system. It implements Bourne configure script generation, concurrent building and it can compile IDE project files. It is portable to most operating systems and make flavors.

Boiler-template (source) file generator. Automates (source) file generation from template files: speeds up developement of redundant or re-usable software and more. An example template for Linux Kernel Device Drivers generation, is included.

ConvertMake is a developer tool for Mac OS X that converts command line build systems into Apple's Xcode .xcodeproj project format.

Cross platform libraries and tools that may make your life easier.

"Embedded Kit" is a toolkit/distro for Opensource Embedded Platform Developers which is reconfigurable and the modules contained within usable individually.

FleXML reads a DTD describing the format of XML documents; it may be specified as a URI to the DTD on the web. From this FleXML produces a validating XML processor with an interface to support XML applications.

IDE for portables GUI applications in Perl. Works with wxPerl (wxWindows), GML (GUI Markup Language) and HPL.

Xeno will provide an entire developement environnement for HP49 under linux : xmodem transfert, cross assembler, de-assembler, file transcription in graphic mode.

A C/C++ dependency generator for large software projects. Parses all source files in a directory tree and constructs a large dependency file for inclusion in a Makefile.

the project is a front hand for mysql database users to prepare there project base application it is similar to Oracle Devloper2000

The NT POSIX C Runtime Library is an IEEE standard runtime library for the NT POSIX subsystem. It can be used as a complete replacement or a side by side alternative for what is shipped with the Interix SDK.

A WYSIWYG Conditional Compilation Preprocessor for Java, Perl, C, C++, Basic, PowerShell, C#, Javascript, and other programming languages. Many C and C++ developers rely heavily on the C preprocessor, and lament the lack of a preprocessor in Java, scripting languages, and other programming languages. The principal objection to a preprocessor is that it makes one's code difficult to read. This is indeed true for the C preprocessor. It is sometimes difficult to determine which lines of code are active and which are not. Being WYSIWYG, the PreprocessorWizard multi-language WYSIWIG preprocessor resolves the problem of code being difficult to read and allows one preprocessing syntax for all languages. It is easy to use as a standalone application and it can be easily integrated with almost any IDE.

REX: Remote EXecution Distributed Computing Services for Linux and Solaris, providing C and C++ APIs, librex library and "rexd" daemon software to implement Load Balancing Process Migration : Dump + Restore, Remote File and Resource Management.

ROBOTester is a simple unittest framework for C. It is a combination of a library to build testcases with and perl program that carries out the testcases and summarizes the results.

The Snake Skin Bean Breaker converts Python syntax into readable Java syntax. With a high potential of runtime or compile-time deviances, the resultant code is assumed to be broken.. Works well for porting Jython Swing prototypes.

The project supplies a template or skeleton for mainly batch processsing applications which make use of the korn Shell (ksh / pdksh), Perl and other executables (see docs). Functionality @ shell/Perl level: logging, sending email to the support, ...
