The Duck Object Library is an object system and library for "duck-typed" programming in C. It takes many cues from Objective-C, CoreFoundation and COM, yet is small and readable enough to be easily ported to platforms where using those is inconvenient.
The Duck source is free software distributed under the MIT License. The packages in the 'ThirdParty' directory are distributed according to their respective licenses, but are similarly unrestrictive.

These pages are links to the library headers, of which some are better documented than others. Eventually the headers may be supplemented by external documentation, but for now it's just a good place to get a grasp on where things are.
