- TransSkel++ -- a C++ Application Framework based on TransSkel
-
- TransSkel++ is a C++ module designed to be used with the
- TransSkel application skeleton. With TransSkel++, C++
- programmers may use most of the features of the TransSkel
- application skeleton from C++ source files. In addition,
- TransSkel++ provides a simple class framework for creating
- applications with menus, windows, dialogs, and more. This
- framework closely mirrors the application skeleton TransSkel
- uses, so users of TransSkel who wish to move their
- applications to C++ will find the transition natural.
-
-
- System Requirements:
-
- TransSkel++ currently compiles under Symantec C/C++ vers. 7.0.4
- and MetroWerks C/C++ 9 and runs under TransSkel release 3.24.
- There are no system or hardware requirements other than those
- imposed by the Symantec and MetroWerks development enviroments.
-
-
- Installation Instructions
-
- You must install TransSkel in order to use the TransSkel++
- module. Refer to the TransSkel Manual for installation
- instructions for TransSkel.
-
- Symantec C/C++
-
- Place a copy or alias of TransSkel++.h in an appropriate
- folder in the Symantec C/C++ directory tree. (The TransSkel
- Manual recommends a "Local Headers" folder in the Symantec
- C/C++ folder.) You should then install a copy of
- TransSkel++/SY-68K, a Symantec C/C++ library, in an
- appropriate folder in the Symantec C/C++ directory tree. (The
- TransSkel Manual recommends a "Local Libraries" folder in the
- Symantec C/C++ folder.) If you would rather install a Symantec
- C/C++ project, you may install a copy of TransSkel++/SY-68K.π.
- The tradeoffs of installing libraries vs. projects are
- discussed in the TransSkel Manual.
-
- MetroWerks CC/C++
-
- Place a copy or alias of TransSkel++.h in an appropriate
- folder in the MetroWerksC/C++ directory tree. (The TransSkel
- Manual recommends a "Local Headers" folder in the "MacOS
- Support:Headers" folder in the MetroWerks folder.) You should
- then install a copy of TransSkel++/MW-68K and/or TransSkel++/MW-PPC,
- MetroWerks C/C++ libraries, in an appropriate folder in the
- MetroWerks C/C++ directory tree. (The TransSkel Manual recommends
- a "Local Libraries" folder in the "MacOS Support:Libraries" folder
- in the MetroWerks folder.)

- ------------
- Release 3.05
- Release Date: June 30, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Release 3.05 updates projects and libraries for CW9, and
- adds support for MetroWerks PPC targeted projects. Symantec
- projects left unchanged.
-
-
- ------------
- Release 3.04
- Release Date: May 1, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Release 3.04 is largely a cleanup of 3.03. Most significant
- is the addition of 2 new methods for both the CWindow and CDialog
- classes, useful for methods which are not event handlers that are
- not automatically invoked by the TransSkel event routing mechanism.
-
-
- ------------
- Release 3.03
- Release Date: March 1, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Release 3.03 added support for Code Warrior 8 68K. The
- names of the Symantec projects and libraries have been changed
- to reflect their maker, and the names of the resources in all
- demo applications have been changed and are now included in
- the Metrowerks and Symantec projects. The creator of all source
- files has been set to MetroWerks IDE 1.4, and all ascii documentation
- to SimpleText. Starting with Release 3.03, the
- release notes for previous versions are included in the
- distribution.
-
-
- ------------
- Release 3.02
- Release Date: January 18, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Release 3.01 Added a few new features to previous
- releases and slightly improved memory management of internal
- TransSkel++ data structures. Starting with release 3.02,
- formatted documentation is in self-reading eDoc format in
- order to avoid reliance on Microsoft rtf format.
-
-
- ------------
- Release 3.01
- Release Date: January 12, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Release 3.01 fixes a few bugs and adds some new
- features to the initial release. Most fixes were due to
- errors with the original scheme for dynamic destruction of
- class instances. Fixes were made which should make it safe to
- delete instances of a class from a class's doClose() method
- (assuming the host won't try to delete the same instance a
- second time). Base class definitions were slightly modified
- to make subclass definitions more flexible.

- Release 3.00
- Release Date: January 2, 1996
-
- SUMMARY: Initial Release.
