This tutorial demonstrates how ILOG Views classes can help develop applications. Rather than present all ILOG Views product features, the tutorial explains some very simple application examples in detail.

Each part of the tutorial is divided into several detailed steps that show exactly what the application does, including annotated source code, screenshots and a link to the executable file. Original source code is provided.

2D graphics
		This section shows how 2D graphic objects are created, managed and animated. It explains fundamental classes of ILOG Views: display, manager, views, graphic objects and interactors.

ILOG Views Controls
		ILOG Views Controls provides state-of-the-art controls like menu bars, buttons, text fields, trees or dockable toolbars. These controls can be used with Windows, Unix or Linux. This section explains how cross-platform GUIs can be build with ILOG Studio.

Business graphic objects
		Graphic applications often require business graphic objects (BGOs) that have specific designs and behaviors. ILOG Views integrates graphic objects that can be designed and animated without C++ coding. This section describes BGOs and the graphic editor used to create and animate them.
