Predefined Libraries
You can look at the predefined prototypes contained in the Rogue Wave Views distribution. Prototype Studio loads these libraries at start-up time.
Library Name
Description
samples
Sample library loaded at start-up.
sources
Prototypes containing value sources.
output
Prototypes containing gadgets and defining output values.
lcd
LCD displays (one digit and four digits).
operations
Prototypes that can be used to connect prototypes and execute operations on their values.
script
Prototypes that use script accessors.
To open one of these prototype libraries, go to the upper pane of the Palettes panel and click the name in the Prototypes palette.
You can look at any prototype definition by double-clicking the prototype icon. This will load the prototype into a Prototype buffer window and open a Group Inspector panel. When you load a panel file that contains prototype instances, the required prototype libraries are automatically loaded in the Prototypes palette.
Samples closer to real applications are available in the directory $ILVHOME/samples/protos of the distribution. Each of these samples comes packaged in a subdirectory with an example program that uses a prototype library (usually held in the data subsubdirectory of the sample).
See the index.html file in the $ILVHOME/samples/protos in the library for a complete description.
