I am looking for C++ code that defines properties and operations
for basic 2-D graphical objects (e.g. lines, arcs, circles, polygons).
Although this would not be too terribly difficult to create, I
would like to avoid any reinvention if possible.

In the grand scheme, I am interested in an object oriented facility
for constructing and managing graphical objects both individually
and as part of a group of graphical objects.  C++ seemed a reasonable
choice.  Although I am targeting XWindows for the display part,
I would like to have the class definitions and functions general
enough so that different windowing environments could be used.

Any information in this regard would be helpful as I am unaware of
other efforts of this type.  Surely there must be some.
