wxEiffel (ewxw): elj interface to the WxWindows GUI library

Introduction

wxEiffel (ewxw) is elj interface to the WxWindows GUI library (version 2.2.9)

Details

wxWindows gives you a single, easy-to-use API for writing GUI applications on multiple platforms. Link with the appropriate library for your platform (Windows/Unix/Mac) and compiler (almost any popular C++ compiler), and your application will adopt the look and feel appropriate to that platform. On top of great GUI functionality, wxWindows gives you: online help, network programming, streams, clipboard and drag and drop, multithreading, image loading and saving in a variety of popular formats, database support, HTML viewing and printing, and much much more.

The wxWindows library is available from:

wxWindows has an active developer and user community. A very active newsgroup provides useful information, resources, etc ..

Documentation for wxEiffel is for the moment limited to the source code (apart from this brief tutorial):

and an example:

Note: For win32 users we provide the appropriate lib (ewxw_lcc.lib) file to work with the wxWindows interface:

For Linux users we provide the appropriate lib (libwx_eiffel.so ..) file to work with the wxWindows interface:

built with wxWindows
