An extensive update of Borland's Object Windows Library (OWL) for writing GUI applications in standard C++ on Microsoft Windows.

Features

  • A migration path to modern C++ for legacy OWL applications written in Borland C++.
  • Support for modern C++ and compilers from Embarcadero and Microsoft.
  • Corrections and improvements to the original OWL API for more robust code.
  • New features, such as Dialog Data Transfer and Safe Transfer Buffers.
  • 32-bit and 64-bit targets for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10/11.
  • Additional extension libraries (OCF, OWLExt and CoolPrj).

Project Samples

OWLMaker is our build tool, itself written in OWLNext. It is by far the most comprehensive example of modern OWLNext and C++ programming in our code base. Audicom Multicast is a widely used system for radio automation. See the Application Showcase on our wiki for more examples of applications using OWLNext. Cartezyan is an information and trading terminal application for the financial markets. See the Application Showcase on our wiki for more examples of applications using OWLNext. Lima VVA is open-source software for simple road design and earthworks. See the Application Showcase on our wiki for more examples of applications using OWLNext. TopoCad (Topographie Cadastrale) is a French geographic information system (GIS). See the Application Showcase on our wiki for more examples of applications using OWLNext. EngView Package Designer Suite is an integrated CAD/CAM environment for design of folding carton & corrugated packaging.
