Introduction

'gatelib' (also called g::lib) project takes its origin from 10 years of working as a SW developer, in particular in in c++.
During all this period of time I have been gathering my pieces of code into a general purpose, that i called g library like first letter of my surname.
At the beginning classes aren't organized into namespaces, but this approach was adopted and from a certain moment on classes are placed into a namespace, whose root is g::,
therefore g::lib definitely became the name of the project. Initially the aim was to avoid the use of MFC in GUI development so the first group of classes are GUI management classes,
but nowadays market offers many products, free or not free, so providing a competitive package is an impossible challenge for a 'one man' developer.
I focused my attention on more basic aspects like memory management, multithreading, containers, low level functions, compatibilty among different OS. The objective I want to achieve can be listed as follows:

• Providing a modular library. This can allow the user to include the subset he really need.
  With everyday increasing requirements in SW testing, the possibility to simply exclude unused source code represents a great advantage.
• Offer a container template library which allows the user to operate similarly to in Hi-level languages(Java,C#) complementar to STL.
• Providing a multithread library.
• Being Multiplatform (linux,windows).
