22. SNIP from Cleanscape Software International :
    An easy-to-use C++ development tool that bridges the gap between design and coding and saves hours of editing/debugging. It also allows developers to specify design patterns as object models, and automatically generates C++ classes from the object models.
23. C++2HTML :
    Online/offline JavaScript program to convert C++ code to syntax highlighted HTML output. Free to use and easy to change. <script src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
