Could you will please tell me if there is open source C++ projects as an addon for Thunderbird? I need to develop one for e-mail processing. Any information on this subject is welcome. Thank you!
Enigmail comes to mind. It has XPCOM components in C++.

Say I have this file:
http://www.example.com/somepic.png
Is there a cross platform C or C++ library that could easily allow me to download it to a specified directory?
Thanks
You can use libcurl to do this.
Besides itself, the GNU libmicrohttpd Web site lists several alternatives.
I'm new to the Fix protocol and I've been trying to find a way to implement it into c++ files starting from a XML description file. So by searching on the net they recommended me with Quickfix, what I really want to know is what do we should call QuickFix? A library or a standard or what exactly?
But my main problem is that lately I downloaded the Quickfix package then I couldn't integrate it into my c++ project even with the QuickFix documentation ( which was vague by the way !) so can someone please describe to me exactly step by step how to configure QuickFix with My Visual c++ project and how can I eventually write this code to parse my XML file:
#include "Application.h"
#include "quickfix/Session.h"
Quickfix doesn't understand XML or parses XML, except for the message bank config file which is in XML. It only deals in FIX formatted strings. You have to use a XML parser i.e. xerces, libxml++ to extract your data in the XML file and then construct a FIX message using the Quickfix library and send wherever you want to.
Fiximate is a more user friendly place to check your FIX messages for correctness. There are examples in the Quickfix library to test an application, and you would need a config file to run it, examples are provided on the Quickfix website.
FIX is a standard: fixprotocol.org/specifications
QuickFIX is a FIX engine (c.f. Library) implementing the standard.
In the source files that you downloaded there is a set of examples which you can use to understand the operation of the engine. You should use these along side the documentation.
QuickFix is a library. There are other FIX engines also available.
It simplifies the implementation by taking care of many low-level things. All a developer has to do is enhance the APIs for messages.
There are good examples for a quick start and good documentation for a beginner.
To get into more details of QuickFix, code itself is well organized.
I've done app by c++ . It's serial port programming/win app.
It's got many files and I would like to make an exe file(setup file to install on client's pc) for delivering thru customers.
I did many research and as far as i see i couldnt.
Any way to do that ?
Would be appreciated.
You need to create a setup project and add it to your solution.

So after the comments, I'm pretty sure what you really want is to build an installer for your application which will package up your built executables with all it necessary libraries and what not, so that you can deliver a single file to your customers and have them install it.
A basic way is the way a lot of open source/free software projects do it - supply an archive/zip/whatever file that the user downloads and unzips on their own machine. I don't really recommend this way unless your users are all technical.
At a previous company we InnoSetup, which is really nice, easy to learn, and free.
nsis is another option. http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page . It can create windows installers and is script based.

Is there any C++ Library that can download data from internet when we provide a URL? I am currently learning C++ and wish to start from making use of such library in my application. Please help.
Thanks
Yes, libcurl.
