Free Software: a magic sound. Actually, one of the most popular Google search.
In this section you will not find free applications, that is, executable programs, ready to donwload and run: instead, the software developer can find functions, classes, ideas ...
You can download and freely use all the code you find here, it is mine. However, you shall quote that you found here the library or function you are using and embedding in your code, and report this site as well. And bear in mind: the source code is mine even if you download and use it. I am sharing it with you, but it is mine and it will be mine.
I ported the Quesa library, originally written for Microsoft C++, to the Borland-Embarcadero environment. Quesa is an open source library distributed under the BSD License.
I have been using the ported Library in the BCB5 environment and in the RAD Studio 2007 as well. Since the library does not use the type String, there should be no problem to recompile it and use it in subsequent Embarcadero development environment. The main issue I have seen in migration from 2007 to later Borland versions is in fact the implicit use of WideString instead of AnsiString.
Should the the library require adjustment for RAD2009 or later, you can do them, of course, and you can participate in the Quesa project.
Warning: Quesa library is open source, it is free of charge, but it is not freely usable, it is under cupyright. I recommend you to see the Quesa project site. Also all the documnatations and the API reference, you can find on their site. I don't copy it here.
You can download the source code from here.
