[comp.windows.x.motif] Motif C++ Binding is Available *FREE*

kseethar@hawk.ulowell.edu (Krishnan Seetharaman) (02/28/91)

Hi

This is to clear some confusion regarding the licensing terms for the 
Motif C++ binding available from the University of Lowell. The binding
is *FREE* though we require you to sign a license. In case you dont have
ftp access and need it on magnetic tape, then we charge a nominal $250.00
to handle shipping and media cost. We however welcome any donation that
may be made by the buyer - these funds are severely needed and will be 
used to maintain the software and release new versions.

Thanks
Krishnan

     The  University  of  Lowell  has developed with a grant from OSF
     a C++ binding for the OSF Motif toolkit. 

     The following features are included:

      o  Completely hides the concept of a widget from the programmer.
         C++ objects are provided corresponding to the widgets with
         the necessary methods.

      o  All the Intrinsics functions are also available as methods.

      o  ANSI compatible header files are provided for the Xm, Xt and
         Xlib libraries.

      o  Convenient macros are provided for making the C++ program
         look clean.

      o  Widget resources are now methods in the C++ object. All the
         methods are provided for creating new class constructors.

      o  Complete Source Code

      o  Reasonable documentation, and demo programs.

     The software is available on any system running X11R3. Currently
     it is available for both the GNU's C++ compiler g++ v 1.37.1 and the
     AT&T C++ v 2.0 translator. We are currently working on making it
     available under X11R4 and Motif 1.1.
    
     The software is available under license from the University of Lowell.
     The cost of the software is as follows :

     FTP		: $  0.00
     Magnetic Tape	: $250.00

     We however welcome further donations which will be used to maintain
     the software and to work on new releases.
