+The Google Code Blog announced the [release of four open source coding tools][1] yesterday. the announcement is part of an ongoing Google program of releasing infrastructure tools as open source software.
+
+All of the tools are hosted on the [Google Code project][2] and are available for download.
+
+For the most part these are highly geeky C++ tools meant for serious developers, I've included a complete list after the jump.
+
+Yesterday's release includes:
+
+*	**[gflags][3]**: Command line flags module for C++. Gflags is intended replacement for getopt() and is implemented in both C++ and Python.
+
+*	**[perftools][4]**: Fast, mutli-threaded malloc() and performance analysis tools. Along with TC Malloc, perftools also contains a Heap Checker, Heap Profiler, and a CPU Profiler.
+
+*	**[sparsehash][5]**: A  memory-efficient hash map implementation. The SparseHash package contains several hash-map implementations, including one implementation that optimizes for space, and another that optimizes for speed. 
+
+*	**[ctemplate][6]**: A simple but powerful template language for C++.
