WindowBuilder Pro (WBPro) is an add-on product for Smalltalk development systems that was originally made by Objectshare Systems in a version for 16 bit MS Windows and OS/2 for Smalltalk/V and later in an 32-bit OS/2 version as well, but later taken over by Instantiations Inc. who added a 32-bit Windows version and support for VisualAge Smalltalk. The tool allowed programmers to simplify the building of user interfaces by developing WYSIWYG UI development, allowing you to interactively create, place, and edit user interface controls in your Smalltalk applications.
Later versions of WindowBuilder Pro had full support for NLS development including support for DBCS languages, in addition to drag and drop support for OS/2 and OLE for Windows, visual inheritance, morphing of controls and so on.
The product supported Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows NT and OS/2 Warp in the late 90s and the user interfaces created for one version of VA Smalltalk worked with any other version, however support for Smalltalk/V had been dropped by that point.
