Visual C++ (Tools & Libraries)

Microsoft Visual C++ (MS Visual C++) allows Visual C++ programmers to rapidly create Windows applications for their end users. Visual C++ developers can extend the standard functionality available inside the Visual C++ IDE with a variety of Visual C++ add-ins and Visual C++ tools. The extensibility of Visual C++ is one of the main reasons it has proved to be popular with developers, as Visual C++ software engineers can find Visual C++ downloads from other companies or other VC++ developers to act as a Visual C++ extension to their Visual C++ IDE or Visual C++ app.

The versatility of Visual C++ also extends to various forms of Visual C++ software components. Visual C++ controls can be used to create feature rich Visual C++ user interfaces on forms and Web pages inside Visual C++ apps. These Visual C++ UI controls are augmented by non-visual Visual C++ components or Visual C++ libraries or Visual C++ Class libraries that can help a developer add many hidden features in Visual C++ applications running in the background. These non-visual components are most commonly available as a Visual C++ library or Visual C++ Class library.

An example of a visible Visual C++ control is BCGControlBar Professional, a Visual C++ Class Library that allows you to create an MS Office Ribbon style or look and feel to your latest Visual C++ project UI. A non-visible Visual C++ Class Library component example is a Visual C++ compatible product call IP*Works! C++ Edition that allows you to send emails via SMTP and POP or to transfer files reliably using HTTP or FTP Internet protocols from within your Visual C++ program.

The Visual C++ software products listed in this Visual C++ product gallery will allow you to save a lot of time and effort in creating your new Visual C++ app. Whether you are looking for a Visual C++ plug-in or Visual C++ utility, or you are looking for a Visual C++ control or a Visual C++ component, you will be able to find a wide variety of Visual C++ tools to help you finish your project faster.

We also have other Visual C++ product galleries for: Visual C++ 2010, Visual C++ 2008, Visual C++ 2005 and Visual C++ .NET compatible products.

LEADTOOLS OCR Module by LEAD Technologies

Average Review: based on 3 reviews.

One of the major features in our application is the ability to scan and recognize different types of images with different formats. We tried some OCR engines, but most of them are hard to implement with many limitations. We tried leadtools OCR features and it helped us to accomplish our goals. This is a great product with many features. I strongly recommend it for any programmer.
LEADTOOLS Imaging Pro SDK by LEAD Technologies

Average Review: based on 3 reviews.

We bought the toolkit to support scanning features in our application. We faced some problems at the beginning because we were new to the toolkit. We had to learn a couple of things about what functions to call and how to put that in our main project, but after a couple of hours, we were able to do it with the help of documentation.
