IWB+ (A Visual Designer for IWBasic)

IWB+© is a Visual Designer Add-On application for use with IWBasic© v2/3. It consists of a 'Drag-and-Drop' graphical interface that allows the user to quickly design their window/dialog layouts. The user can then change the properties of all forms and controls as well as select which handlers are required for their application.

In the background a powerful code builder is at work creating all the necessary files and generating all the code skeletons to support the user's selections. The user can then add their custom coding to the project.

At any time the user can compile the project from within IWB+© and see the end result. Additionally, IWB+ generates a complete IWBasic Project file (*.iwp) that the user may load directly into the IWBasic IDE. The user is even able to modify their application in the IDE if desired (within certain simple guidelines) and their code will be retained if/when they return to IWB+.

This results in an environment that allows the user to easily mix their own code with code automatically generated by IWB+ in an efficient, user friendly manner.
