Date: Wed, 22 Aug 90 15:47:03 GMT Lines: 16 I would like to get some pointers/references to publications/papers that deal with object-oriented design & implementation techniques for user interfaces. I have the ACM's UI symposium proceedings but was wondering if if there were OO-specific publications that have dealt with the issues. Also I'd be interested in publications (or even just general opinions and experiences) that deal with using object-oriented techniques in a non-OO language like C. For example, the X Intrinsics Toolkit uses classes and inheritance, but how clean is the implementation? How could things have been better done? What are the limitations of using C as opposed to designing the toolkit in C++ or some other OOPL? Thanks for any info! -- Eric Giguere giguere@csg.UWaterloo.CA
