摘要
Motif User Interface Application (MUIApp) is an object-oriented graphical user-interface application framework. It simplifies the task of writing, modifying, and debugging window-based applications by application of object-oriented programming to the construction and manipulation of graphical user interface (GUI) components using a well-established window system. The key means adopted in the design include: encapsulation of tedious X-window programming details, construction of high level GUI components using Motif and Xt widgets as the primary building blocks, and definition of collaboration mechanisms between GUI components. Reports that the abstractions and mechanisms provided by MUIApp facilitate the development of graphical user interfaces far applications. Simplicity, extensibility and reusability are the key concerns in the design. MUIApp is written in C++ and runs mainly on top of Motif.
