V C++ GUI Framework: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 15:44, 24 June 2016

V is an easy to program, cross-platform C++ graphical user interface framework. V was designed to make it easier to write C++ graphical user interface applications regardless if they are commercial, shareware, or freeware. In addition to OS/2 it supports MS Windows 16 and 32 bit and Unix like operating system via X11, note that the OS/2 version is available in versions for native OS/2 and XFree86

The original author of the package later introduced an IDE written using the package that supported C++ programming in general and the V C++ GUI Framework package in particular but that was only released in versions for Linux and 32 bit MS Windows.
