Paris, France-based Ilog SA has finally taken the lid off its Views 2.0 C++ graphical user interface builder that was previewed at Unix Expo last year (CI No 2,526). Views provides a single tool for graphics and widget design. Views comes with a PowerEditor, gadget library (text editors, labels, buttons, combo boxes, menus, menu bars, list bars and spreadsheet), the ability to switch applications from Motif to Windows look-and-feel dynamically, and a dynamic variables library for writing scripts to control the attributes of on-screen objects. Views 2.0 is priced from $7,500 on Unix or $5,000 on personal computers for a single development licence.
