GINO for Delphi - A powerful combination of Borland's visual programming environment with an extensive graphics toolkits

Code Examples

Example 1 - A GINOSURF example showing an OpenGL lit surface that can be rotated/zoomed

Example 2 - Interactive drawing application using Delphi events to track mouse movement and position

GINO continues to lead the way in high-end graphics libraries and Fortran users have the added bonus of using GINOMENU Studio, the RAD tool for Fortran programmers. GINO is available for the following Windows compilers:

Absoft Pro
Compaq Visual Fortran
Intel Visual Fortran
Lahey LF95
Salford FTN95

Because Fortran compilers are not binary compatible, different sets of DLL's are supplied for each compiler version.

GINO is available for the following Linux compilers:

Absoft Pro
GNU g77
g95
Lahey LF95
Intel Fortran

Fortran versions of GINO are also available for the following systems:

Compaq ALPHA/OpenVMS
HP/HP-UX
SUN/Solaris (Sparc)
SUN/ Solaris (x86)

GINO for Fortran - Continuing a long-standing tradition of being the choice for developing engineeering graphics software

Code Examples

Example 1 - A GINOSURF example showing a triangulated surface and contour map

Example 2 - A GINO example showing perspective viewing

Example 3 - A GINOMENU example of the classic "hello world" application

The C++ version of GINO is compatible with MS Visual C++, Absoft C++ and Borland C++ under Windows and gcc under Linux
The C++ version includes complete C++ documentation examples and C++ test programs to get you up and running as quickly as possible.

GINO for C++ - A comprehensive suite of over 900 graphics and GUI functions that go way beyond the Windows API and provide cross-platform portability.

Code Examples

Example 1 - A GINOSURF example showing a surface and cross-section

Example 2 - A GINOGRAF example showing a vector chart

Example 3 - A GINOMENU example showing GINO drawing in a frame

The Visual Basic version of GINO is supplied as a suite of DLL's directly callable from VB.
An extensive set of example programs is supplied showing you how easy it is to integrate powerful graphics functions into any VB program

GINO for Visual Basic - A comprehensive suite of over 700 graphics functions for easy incorporation into VB.

Code Examples

Example 1 - A GINOGRAF example showing a curve going through data points on a simple graph

Example 2 - A GINOSURF example showing a surface with 4D data overlay

GINO .NET is supplied as one set of assemblies (DLL's) which can be called from any of the following.NET languages:

• VB.NET
• C#.NET
• C++.NET
• J#.NET
• LF95.NET
• FTN95.NET

Converting existing LF95 code from Win32

There are a number of factors to take into account when converting an existing Win32 GINO program into .NET such as the prefix before each routine name, Enumerator name changes, strings need passing via the function USTRING and character arrays need merging into one single string. Take a look at a direct comparison between .NET code and Win32 code to see what is involved.

GINO.NET - A comprehensive suite of over 700 graphics functions for easy incorporation into Visual Studio.NET.

Code Examples

VB.NET Example 1 - A GINOGRAF example showing a simple line graph

VB.NET Example 2 - A GINO example showing interactive 3D shape drawing

C#.NET Example 1 - A GINOSURF example showing a contour map and cross-section

C#.NET Example 2 - A GINOGRAF example showing types of block graphs

C++.NET Example 1 - A GINOSURF example showing a filled contour map and line-surface

J#.NET Example 1 - A GINOGRAF example showning a X-Y Akima graph

LF95.NET Example 1 - A GINO example showing a 3D sphere

LF95.NET Example 2 - A GINOGRAF example showing a filled pie-chart

FTN95.NET Example 1 - A GINOGRAF example showing four types of polar charts

FTN95.NET Example 2 - A GINO example showing a simple line and arc with text output
