- demo
- Demonstrates all widgets available in iceWing and the different render capabilities of iceWing.
xcf4icewing
XCF, the XML enabled communication framework, provides features for distribution of modules and corresponding algorithms across different machines. See http://xcf.sourceforge.net for additional details about the framework and the software.To integrate iceWing into a larger XCF-based system architecture or to interconnect several program instances of iceWing, there are the so-called XCF infrastructure plugins that enhance iceWing transparently by the XCF communication patterns. The following plugins and features are available:
- XCFExport
- Allows to export any XML data from iceWing to other processes via XCF.
- XCFImport
- Counterpart to XCFExport. Allows to import XML data into iceWing via XCF.
- XCFImageExport
- Allows to export (binary) image data.
- XCFImageImport
- Allows to import (binary) image data.
