It is implemented in several + platforms using native graphics libraries: Microsoft Windows (GDI and GDI+) + and X-Windows (XLIB). </p> + <p>The library contains functions to support both vector and image + applications, and the visualization surface can be either a canvas or a more + abstract surface, such as Clipboard, Metafile, PS, and so on.</p> + <p>To make the Application Programmers Interface (API) simple, all data are + standard C types (int, double or char). Thus the application program does not + have to maintain parallel data structures to deal with the graphic library. + </p> + <p>Furthermore, the list of parameters of the CD primitive functions contains + only the geometrical descriptions of the objects (line, circle, text, etc.). + Where these objects should appear and what is the their color, thickness, etc. + are defined as current state variables stored in the visualization surfaces. + That is, the library is visualization-surface oriented, meaning that all + attributes are stored in each visualization surface. </p> + <p>CD is free software, can be used for public and commercial applications.</p> + +<h3><a name="Availability">Availability</a></h3> + + <p>The library is available for several <strong>compilers</strong>:</p> + <ul> + <li>GCC and CC, in the UNIX environment</li> + <li>Visual C++, Borland C++, Watcom C++ and GCC (Cygwin and MingW), in the + Windows environment</li> + </ul> + <p>The library is available for several <strong>operating systems</strong>:</p> + <ul> + <li>UNIX (SunOS, IRIX, AIX, FreeBSD and Linux)</li> + <li>Microsoft Windows NT/2K/XP</li> + </ul> + +<h3><a name="Suport">Support</a></h3> + + <p>The official support mechanism is by e-mail, using <u> + <a href="mailto:cd@tecgraf.puc-rio.br?subject=[CD]"><b>cd</b></a></u><a href="mailto:cd@tecgraf.puc-rio.br?subject=[CD]"><u><b>@tecgraf.puc-rio.br</b></u></a>.
