An Extension Class for Interactive Graphical Objects

GO++ is a family of graphical components that allows developers to quickly build graphical applications.

GO++ offers two class libraries, one for C++/MFC and one for Java. Though the design of the 2 libraries is very similar, both are written to tightly integrate with and seamlessly extend their native environments. We also include an ActiveX control with the MFC product.

GO++ doesn't just build components, it also builds graphical applications. These components aren't just a guess at what a programmer needs, but are built to meet the programmer's requirements. Companies using GO++ include British Telecom, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, LG Electronics, Siemans Nixdorf and Software AG.

The Key Strengths of GO++ Are:

• Usable Classes -- GO++ was designed from the start to be a reusable class library
• Power -- easy definition of specialized graphical objects containing other objects
• Flexibility -- any client application can implement its own visual syntax and semantics
• Performance -- can handle thousands of nodes and arcs
• Ease of Use -- supports object selection, drag-and-drop, auto-scrolling, zooming into diagrams, arbitrary scaling of individual nodes, assisted drawing of arcs
• Convenience -- users can do in-place text editing or use other standard controls
• Smoothness -- supports double-buffering, real-time dragging, and Windows metafiles for full-resolution printing

GO++ provides the graphical objects like Nodes, Arcs, Ports, Text, Shapes, and Lines. Nodes are scalable Windows metafile pictures. Ports are connectors on Nodes. Arcs connect two Ports. A container object is also provided to allow hierarchies of objects to be built.

Based on Microsoft Foundation Classes, GO++ provides full support for COLEServerDoc and CScrollView. The class structure provides an easy to use, yet high performance framework to build your graphical applications.

GO++ for Java:

GO++ for Java follows the successful design of the MFC GO++ library, but is 100% Java in every way. It is compatible with JDK 1.1 and 2.0 and the popular Java development environments.

GO++ for C++/MFC:

A C++ class library based on the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) for Windows that lets programmers easily create interactive graphical objects and network editors.
