C++ library and editor to design Very Graphical User Interfaces (VGUI)

ILOG is now shipping ILOG VIEWS 2, the first portable C++ development
toolkit to fully integrate interface components and 2D graphics for
building next-generation user interfaces.

Prior to ILOG VIEWS 2, developers had to design and program their
interfaces using one tool and then code their advanced graphics
functionality by hand. ILOG VIEWS 2 is targeted at professional C++
programmers who want to use a single tool to adress all their GUI
requirements.

ILOG VIEWS 2 unique object-oriented architecture completely separates
graphics from behaviors. This architecture simplifies the development of
interactive applications, reduces the amount of code and memory required,
and provides high performance at execution.

ILOG VIEWS 2 high-level C++ class library is fully extensible and portable
across Windows, OS/2, and Unix platforms. It includes: - portable
resources, event management, and PostScript support - a portable
multi-look gadget library - extensive 2D graphic object library including
charts and gauges - PowerObjects such as graph layout, spreadsheet, and
Gantt chart - management of multiple views & layers (for cartographic
applications) - double buffering, infinite undo, zooming, and other
editing operations

The development of portable VGUI applications is accelerated through ILOG
PowerEdit, an extensible VGUI builder that generates standard C++ code.
PowerEdit reusable components are provided with ILOG VIEWS 2 so that
developers can create and distribute their own custom editors.

ILOG VIEWS 2 Dynamic Variable mechanism offer an interpretor for writing C
formulae between variables to control the attributes of objects. This
allows for code-free animation and control of graphics objects.

ILOG VIEWS 2 provides a message translation mechanism so that messages used
in the interfaces may be translated dynamically. The look and feel of ILOG
VIEWS 2 applications can be changed dynamically from Motif to Windows on
all platforms.

ILOG VIEWS 2 is currently used to build a wide range of applications, from
financial trading systems to network monitoring and air-traffic control
systems. Developers already using a traditional GUI builder can still take
advantage of ILOG VIEWS 2 to complement their interfaces with real
graphics, as Hewlett-Packard has done for their latest version of
SoftBench.

ILOG VIEWS 2 is available on a wide range of UNIX platforms (development
license: $7,500) and on PCs running Microsoft Windows 3.1 ($5,000) and
Windows NT and OS/2 Presentation Manager ($7,500). Preferred university
rates and free demonstration CD-ROM available upon request.
