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.

I have an application that is written in C++ and would like to offer the user the possibility to have a VBA-programming interface (not dissimilar from the one in Excel). Is there the possibility to do that? Does a set of libraries exists for this? Is it very difficult to do?
Yes it is possible, but do regard it as being extremely difficult. As a starter for ten, your application will need a comprehensive Component Object Model interface. At that point, you would be able to use VBScript, so it might be wise to stop there.
For fully-fledged embedded VBA, you'll need to negotiate a licence with Microsoft.
Some applications (e.g. Reuters Kobra) licence the VBA interface in a similar way.

I'm new in C++ and looking for a way to create gui just like windowbuilder under eclipse (java).
I will appreciate if someone can help me to find tool like windowbuilder.
OS : Linux
Thank you
Personally I'm a fan of Qt.
However, it depends entirely on what you want to do. Qt is primarily for cross platform development, so it'll look and act mostly the same between any platform, it also has a large library that may require a bit of a learning curve at first - but the licencing options make it look pretty. Also the documentation is very awesome.
There are of course a lot of other options like:
GTKmm (based on GTK+), wxWidgets, FLTK, etc...
Also this is a duplicate question, so look at some of these other answers:
How do I create a GUI for a windows application using C++?
How do I build a GUI in C++?

Is there anything in std library or boost (or good enough libraries) which let me make good plots in c++? I would need something like matplotlib of python or gnuplot.
Thank you
There are a couple of "native" C++ libraries for plotting. The two I'm familiar with are:
CERN's ROOT framework - This gives you a lot more than just plotting, and is specifically geared toward analysis of large amounts of data, but it does have a lot of fairly advanced plotting tools.
MathGL - though not as powerful or as easy to use as ROOT, it provides a simple way to plot all but the most complex of plots.
There is nothing "standard " about these libraries, but they are both fairly well supported.

Is there any library similar to libQGLViewer (a ready-to-use 3d model viewer to embeed in applications) but without the Qt dependency? The application that I'm making is mostly command line, and including Qt just for model viewing looks too expensive to me...
Have a look at Coin3D: http://www.coin3d.org/
Coin is an implementation of the OpenInventor library started by SGI. It is a C++ library with viewers, all sorts of geometric nodes, actions, events. There are many bindings for different windowing systems.

im starting a new project and for the first time i want to be cross-platform. But the tricky is my project would involve listen server, cryptos etc., etc. So i was wondering what is the best solution for cross-platform development (OpenSSL, instead of MSCrypto etc.) that would be easy to write with VS2010 (yeah the RC). The language is still not specified (depends on witch we would be easier) but im leaning to Visual C++.
In Cross-Platform i mean windows/generic unix compilation.
Qt4 is a complete crossplatform framework, including a very strong socket library.
also Boost.Asio http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/libraries.htm.
The Poco C++ library may be what you are looking for.
