The full ISE Eiffel 3 graphical environment is now available on
NEXTSTEP, both on NeXT hardware and Intel-based 486 and Pentium
PCs.
Commercial licenses as well as special full-time student/faculty
packages are available for both ISE Eiffel for NEXTSTEP and
EiffelKits.
The license includes these components of the environment:
- EiffelBench: graphical development environment supporting compiling
(all modes: Melting Ice Technology for fast recompilation, generation
of portable C code, optimization), debugging, browsing etc.
- EiffelVision: library for graphics and user interfaces.
- EiffelBase: library of data structures and algorithms.
- EiffelLex, EiffelParse: libraries for language analysis.
- Full documentation
ISE Eiffel 3 for NEXTSTEP includes a version of EiffelBench based
upon NEXTSTEP and Display Postscript, with the addition of standard
cut and paste mechanisms and printing of any windows. The
EiffelVision library for NEXTSTEP allows the creation of graphical
applications that are fully portable between the NEXTSTEP
environment (where they are based on the NeXT AppKit and Display
Post Script) and other X/Motif based platforms.
ISE and Quarried Software (third-party vendor) have released EiffelKits,
a special NEXTSTEP-specific class library which contains the
following components:
- A class library that encapsulates the NeXT AppKit Objective-C
class library.
- Online documentation in a form suitable for use with the NeXT
Digital Librarian for the standard ISE Eiffel 3 class libraries
(EiffelBase, EiffelLex, EiffelParse & EiffelVision) as well as
the EiffelKits class library. The documentation is in the form
of the ancestors and flat-short class listings.
- A Palette for use with the NeXT Interface Builder that allows
graphical applications to be created using the Interface
Builder and the EiffelKits class library.
- Hard-copy documentation for EiffelKits in the form of the
ancestors and short-flat listings with an introductory chapter
describing the use of the class library in detail.
- Full documentation
Reminder: the fully graphical ISE Eiffel 3 environment is also
available on the following platforms:
DEC Alpha, DG Aviion, Fujitsu, HP 9000, IBM RISC 6000,
Pyramid, SCO Unix, Silicon Graphics, Sun (SunOS and Solaris 2.3),
DEC Ultrix.
The non-graphical version of the environment is available on
Windows (386 and above) in both a personal version (with no C code
generation) and a professional version (including all facilities of
the Unix version except for the graphics). The graphical versions
will be available at the end of the year.
All ISE Eiffel versions are fully source-compatible with each other.
