Gadgets: Lazy Functional Components for Graphical User Interfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a process extension to a lazy functional programming system, intended for applications with graphical user interfaces (GUIs). In the extended language, dynamically-created processes communicate by asynchronous message passing. We illustrate the use of the language, including as an extended example a simple board game in which squares are implemented as concurrent processes. We also describe a window manager, itself implemented in the extended functional language.

Composing the User Interface with Haggis
This tutorial presents Haggis, a graphical user interface framework written in the lazy functional language Haskell. The Haggis framework provides the programmer with a compositional view of graphical user interfaces , where complete GUI applications can be built by repeatedly composing together parts. The individual user interface components are treated as virtual I/O devices that can be inter...

One among them suggests using suitable user interfaces. This paper investigates the functionality and capabilities of 3D graphical user interfaces in regard to trust building in the customers of next generation of B2C e-commerce websit...
متن کاملProcess Visualization with Oberon System 3 and Gadgets
In process automation, visualization systems are used to visualize the state of a plant (in real time) and to enter control commands for interaction. The proliferation of graphical user interfaces has improved design opportunities as well as user interface quality considerably. Nevertheless, the state of the art in visualization systems is rarely satisfying for end users (operators) or for appl...
متن کاملComposing graphical user interfaces in a purely functional language
This thesis is about building interactive graphical user interfaces in a compositional manner. Graphical user interface applications hold out the promise of providing users with an interactive, graphical medium by which they can carry out tasks more eeectively and conveniently. The application aids the user to solve some task. Conceptually, the user is in charge of the graphical medium, control...
متن کاملThe implementation of interactive local statetransition systems in
The functional programming language Clean ooers an extensive library, the object I/O library, to programmers to create interactive applications that use Graphical User Interfaces (GUI). Programs are constructed by composition of interactive objects. Interactive objects share state. To support modular programming it is also possible to provide objects with local state. Hierarchies of stateful ob...
