| Abstract | |
This work presents the development of a \"toolkit\", named ICMSCKit. It is aimed do aid the construction of user graphic interfaces, using the object oriented paradigm. The toolkit is made by a set of object classes, implemented in C++, and supports the creation of visual objects to the user interface, as windows, buttons and menus. The communication between the interface and the application program occurs through a message exchange manager and through callback procedures. The ICMSCKit enforces the separation and independence of the application program and its interface. The toolkit was initially developed to the Microsoft Windows 3.1 environment, although it also has the purpose of to enforce \"portability\" of the application code, by hiding ali the characteristics of the native platform. In this way, new ports to other operational environrnents can be done, maintaining the same application program interface. The toolkit is also extensible, using the class specialization resources of the C++ language, and via the resources of composition of objects provided by the toolkit internais. (AU) | |
