What’s New in SourcePro?
SourcePro provides the building blocks for C++ applications, with C++ libraries. Each SourcePro release conforms to the newest security standards, improves usability, and supports the latest platforms, compilers, and databases.
SourcePro 2022.1
SourcePro C++ libraries provide the essential building blocks for your applications. With SourcePro, you write your code once and deploy it anywhere. This helps you reduce time-to-market, increase reliability, and extend the life of your applications. SourcePro 2022.1 ensures optimal application performance, offers critical bug fixes, and overall improvements.
Updates & Fixes
SourcePro has been updated with enhanced time zone support to ensure applications written with SourcePro integrate effectively with applications that require time zone data for operation. This includes:
- Improved support for non-DST Transitions
- Improved Support for Time Zones with Multiple DST Transitions
- Performance improvements for operations with RWZone
- Improved handling of struct tm parameters that indicate whether they represent standard or daylight savings time (i.e., tm_isdst is set to 0 or 1 respectively). Previously this information was ignored, resulting in ambiguous or incorrect results, especially when compared to the behavior of mktime.
Platform Updates
- Support for Microsoft Windows 11 and Visual Studio 2022. SourcePro applications can now target the latest operating systems and compilers available from Microsoft.
- Support for OpenSSL 3.0. Applications written with SourcePro can now take advantage of the latest production-ready encryption and security.
- Support for OpenSSL 1.1.1.o

SourcePro 2021 & 2021.1
Updates and Fixes
- SourcePro Core - Essential Tools Module and SourcePro DB updated to protect against potential unsigned integer wrapping that could result in unexpected behavior.
- Access module for MySQL updated to correct a MariaDB lib path on Windows.
- RCB interface includes updated Copy functionality.
- With the release of Red Hat 8 and SLES 15 the
sunrpcmethods were deprecated an a new librarylibtirpcwas introduced to provide XDR stream functionality. SourcePro was updated to characterize the platform being used on so it can present a consistent XDR interface regardless of what underlying implementation your OS leverages. - Resolved an issue with the GCC 10 optimizer generating code that resulted in incorrect mathematical operations in RWMultiPrecisionInt.
