Product Description
Review
'Understanding the VisualWorks architecture, and how these objects work together, enhances the developer's ability to use VisualWorks. [This book] takes the reader on a whirlwind tour of the details behind the scenes in order to make developing with VisualWorks more effective and more enjoyable.' Adele Goldberg, co-chairman, Digitalk, from the Foreword
Product Description
The Smalltalk Developer's Guide to VisualWorks provides an in-depth analysis of the popular application development tool produced by ParcPlace Systems. Designed to enhance development acumen, this book serves as a guide to using VisualWorks to its full potential. The reader can use this book as a study guide, as a series of tutorials, as a reference for items and concepts, or just as a source of valuable VisualWorks code. The book is divided into two logical parts. The first section is an in-depth analysis of VisualWorks in terms of fundamental Smalltalk concepts. The author peels away the mystique behind this powerful development tool, making it more accessible and familiar. The second section provides a greater understanding of the complexities and nuances specific to VisualWorks. By gaining a greater understanding of its unique characteristics, readers will be able to build better applications and extend and enhance the tools themselves. This section is packed with valuable tips, tricks, tutorials, and reusable code. In addition, an accompanying diskette provides source code and examples to be utilized by the reader.

Format:Paperback
I like this book especially, because it explains in detail all this UIBuilder and Spec stuff. If you want to understand how to build powerful user interfaces, this book is must. It really gives you insight into the mechanisms of the VisualWorks UI building. It was rather easy for me, to add own widget specs into the framework after reading it.
