Gnome Graphical Interface

http://library.gnome.org/devel/platform-overview/stable/graphics.html.en

The GNOME Platform features sophisticated graphics and user interface technology, from standard user interface controls to an API for drawing high-quality graphics to the screen. Using the graphics technologies in GNOME allows you to create applications that are consistent, intuitive, and aesthetically pleasing.

Layered Look at Graphics Libraries

Summary:

  • GDK: low level graphic library, 
  • Gtk+: built on top of GDK, and provide various widgets and an MVC model for working with complex widgets, 
  • Pagno: text rendering, 
  • Cario: vector drawning library. Gtk+ widgets are built using Cairo.

What is GVFS, GIO, GLIB, GConf, Gstream, etc? Now I’m reading Gnome Documentation Library and I thought this is the start page.

so this is :An Official Guide to Gnome Libraries and Tools.

Can I use Apple’s Runtime APIs?


You not only can, but should!

With OS X 10.5, Apple introduced a new set of APIs for interacting with the runtime. These hid the implementation details - previously all public - behind a set of public functions, implemented on both the modern and legacy runtimes.

These functions are supported by the GNUstep runtime and can also be used with the GCC runtime if you link against Étoilé’s ObjectiveC2 framework.

From release 1.20.0 of the base library onwards the new runtime APIs are built in to the GNUstep base library (the Étoilé ObjectiveC2 framework is incorporated into base and extended/improved) so that the new APIs can be used with both old and new runtimes.

Apache Zeta Components is an enterprise ready general purpose PHP components library. As a collection of high quality independent building blocks for PHP application development Apache Zeta Components will both speed up development and reduce risks. An application can use one or more components effortlessly as they all adhere to the same naming conventions and follow the same structure. All components are currently based on PHP 5.2.1.

The Apache Zeta Components in a nutshell:

  • Designed for enterprise PHP application development

  • Open source and licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0

  • Clear intellectual property (IP) rights

  • Thoroughly documented

  • Fully maintained by the open source community, initially developed by eZ Systems

Don’t just ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive
and then go and do it, because what the world needs is people who have
