چکیده
We specify widget libraries for the VisualWorks and Tk toolkits. We also specify an abstract library that expresses the common features of the two toolkits. Widgets from the abstract library can be replaced by widgets from either toolkit without loss of functionality. By specifying a user-interface in terms of widgets from the abstract library, portability of the user-interface to either the VisualWorks or Tk toolkits is guaranteed. The abstract library therefore expresses the widget functionality that can be assumed if a user-interface is to be designed that will provide the same functions to users of either platform.

متن کاملEvaluating Distributed Graphical User Interface Communication
Two main options exist to implement an Internet front-end for an application with a graphical user interface (GUI). The first is to "hard-code" a remote interface specifically for the application and distribute it to client computers. The problem with this approach is the inflexibility of the resulting interface. An alternative approach that minimises the need for client re-distribution is to p...
