It makes use of the native 2D +drawing calls of each backend, for maximum efficiency and quality. It +works by defining a base class (piddle.Canvas) with methods for all +supported drawing primitives. A particular drawing context is provided +in the form of a derived class. PIDDLE applications will be able to +automatically select an appropriate backend for the user's environment. + +WWW: http://piddle.sourceforge.net/ |
