BloCxx is a "cross-platform, general purpose C++ framework for application development" (from the BloCxx project page). It is useful for developing C++ applications on SUSE Linux and other platforms.

BloCxx began life as a higher-level abstraction for C++ programming in the OpenWBEM project as a part of the OpenWBEM code base. Over time, there arose a desire to be able to use these abstractions in other applications independent of OpenWBEM. The BloCxx project was created for this purpose - to provide a C++ application framework based upon the library used in OpenWBEM.
Today, OpenWBEM uses BloCxx. Novell is among the companies that have allocated resources to the development and maintenance of BloCxx and it is used in many cases in SUSE Linux and other Novell products.
This tutorial on the use of BloCxx is a work in progress. The sections of the tutorial will be addressed separately and links to those sections will be provided below.
