ucommon
UCommon is a lightweight C++ library to facilitate using C++ design patterns even for very deeply embedded applications, such as for systems using uClibc along with POSIX threading support. For this reason, UCommon disables language features that consume memory or introduce runtime overhead. UCommon introduces some design patterns from Objective-C, such as reference counted objects, memory pools, and smart pointers. UCommon introduces some new concepts for handling of thread locking and synchronization.

Changes: The class framework has been reorganized to remove unnecessary locking in local heap and keydata managed structures. The fsys class has been enhanced for streaming media files. There is some refactoring of the core API, resulting in more complete tree and list classes. Better support for use as a new system library and an alternative to the ANSI standard C++ library, especially for embedded targets. As a successor library, the license was updated to the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3 or later for continuity with GNU Common C++ licensing practices.
