[Sigia-l] FW: GUI Object Asset Management

[David Heller]

Hi Ziya,
It is the latter ... I'm going to develop the widgets myself.
What I want is a GUI to that easy to develop relationship database that also
has business logic.

I suggest you look at GUIguide.com

I'm sure someone w/ your mxed bag of skills could build this in a couple of
weeks, but people like me need finished products to work from. ;)

Anyway, thanx for replying.

Not sure what you really want. Do you want an already-built compendium of UI
widgets of, I assume, major OSes/web/apps? Or are you going to collect them
yourself but don't know how to build the database/app that will allow you
store/display them?

If the former, it's a pretty Herculean job, as the widget set changes all
the time, and some in subtle ways that a casual observer would be hard put
to detect. But there are HIGs for each OS and you can go from there.

If the latter, it's a most trivial job. Any relational DB should allow you
to create what's essentially a "parts catalog."

So you need to provide more info or perhaps an example.
