I have a code which implements DirectSound8. MSFT states in its website that this library has been deprecated. So, what are my options if I updated this code provided that I maintain the windows platform. If I switched to Linux, what are the options?

For Windows and Xbox One, the replacement for the DirectSound API for playback/3D positional audio is XAudio2.
There are numerous 3rd party audio solutions available. This blog post discusses a number of them. They are usually cross-platform, and on Windows they make use of WASAPI for communication with the audio hardware.

I am looking for a list that states which vendor does support which OpenGL extension.
For example I wanted to use ARB_shading_language_include, which was accepted in 2013, but from various forums on the internet I assume it isn't implemented on AMD drivers. But I can't find any official document that states where this extension is supported.
Does such a list exist?
There is no general document for extensions support, though some databases are kept largely up to date by communities:
https://opengl.gpuinfo.org/listreports.php?extension=GL_ARB_shading_language_include
As of writing no AMD renderers show up as supporting ARB_shading_language_include.

I would like to implement any maps (OSM, Google maps...) in my Qt Widget application (only targeting Windows platforms).
All answers I got so far is really out-dated (answers from 2011-2013) and I am not able to google anything useful. So I wanted to ask which frameworks could you recommend me?
We are using the osgEarth SDK in our Qt applications. It supports OSM and basically every map type that is supported by GDAL.

Is there any open framework written in C/C++ which helps in interacting with smart card devices, here my aim is to create such a system which is platform independent by in C/C++.
I have been trying to search such Libraries but all i came across is Java based frameworks like OCF and Java Smart Card I/O API.
Any help is appreciated.
Indeed there are methods like SCardEstablishContext, SCardConnect, SCardTransmit, which you use to establish communication with the smart card, and then send commands to the card, on the APDU level.

I have started working on C++ Windows application which needs to fetch Icloud and Yahoo Calendars by connecting to the CalDav servers.
Is there a C++ library that implements this protocol?
Is there a C++ library that implements this protocol?
There's always a number of good opensource libs that implement standardised protocols like CalDav.
They are best hunted on FOSS project hosts (with the help of Google).
Here is afew:-
http://libcaldav.sourceforge.net/
http://trac.mulberrymail.com/repos/wiki/icalendar
https://code.google.com/p/kcaldav/ <- unmaintained but may be usefull
http://www.zarafa.com/ <- you might want to extract the CalDav only code from this

We want to include data visualization in our desktop GUI (mostly timelines and graphs; clickable, draggable). We want to restrict to open-source, non-copyleft C++ libraries that allow commercial use and are portable across many platforms. Which library can I use? Our GUI is based on WxWidgets.
there is VTK.
And if data visualization is your thing, have a look at opendx too.
I think this question would be easier to answer if you also stated which other GUI components you use. Perhaps that limits the choice of available libraries. Since you're C++ and cross-platform, maybe wxWindows? Would be good not to have to guess.
