Agile is a high-level, compiled graphics programming
language. Agile's versatility enables customization of C-Solution's Geometric
Modeling Software (GMS) for specific needs. Agile can serve an interface
between GMS and user-written applications. When combined with the GMS system,
Agile can significantly reduce the time required for the design and
manufacturing cycle.
It's free format, simplified concepts, and
comprehensive diagnostics make it an ideal tool for non-programmers. It's
structured programming, full algorithmic capability, scientific function
library, and interface to C and FORTRAN provide the power desired by
experienced programmers.
Product
Capabilities
- Interacts directly with the
graphic nucleus of GMS through a set of geometric construction and manipulation
functions
- Forms the basis for a system
query language
- Allows interfacing to routines
written in other languages, to the operating system, and to external
services
- Enables the user to alter
menus, create special functions and add tutorials to the existing GMSWorks
system
- Carries out functions which are
transparent to the GMS user
- Empowers the user to create new customized
application packages
Benefits
- Allows customization of the
C-Solutions line of software products to meet unique needs
- Simplifies modification of
existing constructions, permitting repeated execution of a program with varying
input
- Promotes process automation and
parametric capabilities
- Utilizes easy-to-learn
commands
Components and
Features
- Clean, consistent
syntax
- Straightforward process permits
new programs to incorporate segments of existing programs
- Input to graphics functions may
be fixed values, calculated values, created entities, or user input during
program execution
- Compilation eliminates
constraints on the size and complexity of programs
- Complete set of structured
programming statements
- Simplified error checking with
