Application: Paragent Manage 2.1 Company: Paragent URL: <http://www.paragent.com> Description: Paragent Manage is a Desktop Management Application that uses a lightweight agent written in C++. Unlike traditional desktop management solutions, Paragent Manage avoids the complexity and cost of servers by using peer-to-peer communication between agents and the administrative console. This allows real-time inventory searching, alerting and software auditing in an easy-to-deploy and maintain package. Boost Usage: We have used boost extensively throughout our agent, including: threads shared_ptr bind spirit date_time algorithm multi_index filesystem Apart from some read_write_mutex issues we had, boost has been a seamless part of our development, and has allowed us to develop and deploy a very complex, highly threaded networking agent with a built-in lisp-like xml-based scripting language all done in C++. Our entire development team would like to thank everyone for their hard work on behalf of C++ coders everywhere.
