Amiga Reaction GUI Builder (Remake of ClassMate)

ClassMate was a graphical user interface builder for ClassAct

for the Amiga in 1997. ClassAct was developed into Reaction which is

now part of Amiga OS 3.2. ClassMate however was a shareware product

and in its demo form was severely limited.

There was no save functionality. Popups appeared every few minutes

and it was limited to a small number of objects that could be placed.

The full version of ClassMate is no longer available and for that reason

I decided to make my own GUI builder for Reaction. It is heavily based on

the look of ClassMate is all written from scratch. It includes support

for many more gadget types than ClassMate did and has been improved in

many ways to allow for easier use.

Just a few of the improvements are:

1) Support for both E and C languages

2) Menu design is shown in the preview window

3) Support for multiple windows in a single project

4) Copy buffer making it easier to move or duplicate gadgets

5) More flexible system of arranging gadgets and layouts

ReBuild is written using my own E-VO compiler.

The program is released into the public domain for anyone to use however

they wish with no restrictions apart from that the program should not be

sold for profit.

You may use this program to assist with the development any application

without restriction however use of this project is entirely at your own

risk. I will not accept responsibilty for any issues arising from the

use of Rebuild.

Changes in this release 1.1.0

- Creating a virtual gadget could cause crashes (due to a bug

in the version of E-VO used to compile 1.0.0)

- About dialog changed 'Rebuilder' To 'Rebuild'

- Loading a bitmap with no image selected reported an incorrect error

- Added option to generate code that does not use macros in the object

definitions (for better GCC compatibility).

- add GA_TabCycle property to click tab

- code generated for fuel gauge now uses GA_Text instead child label

- fuel gauge used incorrect default number of ticks

- GetScreenMode did not include child label in generated code

- Glyph did not include child label in generated code

- Glyph used incorrect default type

- Added USEMACROS tooltype

- Sketchboard was missing many of the settings in the generated code

- SizeBRight and SizeBBottom did not work correctly in preview window
