There is no "public domain" in most jurisdictions. Unless you want to keep us damn Europeans out, you'd better choose an "explicit Public Domain" license, like the WTFPL. (Which is what I do.)

That would not make sense as the RFCs don't require the "domain" part to be a registered and reachable domain. Additionally, the application which uses the library does not have to access the internet at all.

There are libraries for that.  :up:

Version History0.1.1 [2018-02-25]:

[Select]
    #include <vldmail.h>
   
    int main(void) {
        /* ... your code ... */
       
        vldmail validator = validate_email(L"foo@bar.quux");
        if (0 == validator.success) {
            /* success == 0 means that something was wrong. */
            printf(L"Validating foo@bar.quux failed: %ls\n", validator.message);
        }
       
        /* ... more of your code ... */
    }

Uninstallation
Just remove it, I guess.

N.A.N.Y. 2019 / N.A.N.Y. 2019: remv: Rename files (and directories) with regular expressions
« Last post by Tuxman on July 29, 2018, 06:34 PM »
Just throwing together my other 2019 applications before writing new ones...

NANY 2019 Entry Information

Application Name remv
Version 2.0.0
Short Description A sane way to rename files/directories with a regular expression.
Supported OSes Any, as long as we have a C++17 compiler.
Web Page https://www.donation...ndex.php?topic=44941
Download Link Attached in the "website" topic.
System Requirements
  • Binary: Windows.
  • Compile yourself: Any that has a new(ish) Clang compiler set.
Version History
  • check constants.hpp
Author whatever

Description
remv should solve my regular problem of having to recursively rename files according to a regex pattern.

Features
- Renames files and folders.
- Can simulate that as well.

Screenshots

(Sorry - attachments don't currently work.)

Usage
Installation
Unpack the .exe anywhere (or build one wherever you want).

Using the Application
[Select]
USAGE:
        remv [COMMANDS]
        remv [OPTIONS] <regex> <replacement> [<startpath>]

 OPTIONS (any combination):
        -r      Recurse into subdirectories.
        -E      Skip file extensions while renaming.
        -d      Also rename directories on the way.
        -s      Sets the start directory to the last parameter;
                else, remv will start in '.'.
        -f      Only replaces the first occurrence in each name.
        -v      Verbose logging.
        -vv     Very verbose logging.
        -n      Dry run - don't modify anything just yet.

 COMMANDS:
        -V      Display the remv version and exit.
        -h      Display this help screen and exit.

 You can use $1, $2 etc. in your replacement strings for back-
 references.

Uninstallation
Delete the executable file. You might want to add its path to your %PATH% if you want easier access.

Tips
Don't.  ;D

Known Issues
It sucks!

I found a major threading problem in BlogC++'s NLTemplate templating engine. Now it turned out that the original author (and all forks which might have fixed it) have disappeared from GitHub entirely, for reasons yet unknown.

So I decided that BlogC++ version 9 - to be released some time in 2018, I guess - will come with inja which accidentally also fixes one of the other problems I had, namely the lack of support for if blocks in my templates. Hooray! Time to work.  :D
