Resumo games são adicionados ao site de pesquisa do Google em comemoração a alguma data ou evento especial, e O advento da tecnologia do HTML 5 tem aberto um são jogáveis no próprio site. novo mercado de jogos para internet, onde os usuários Graças a grande experiência alcançada pelos podem interagir com o game através de diferentes engenheiros da Google no setor de aplicações ricas equipamentos, como computadores, tablets e celulares para internet, foi criado por eles o framework Google sem a necessidade de instalação prévia da aplicação ou Web Toolkit (GWT), que tem facilitado muito criação mesmo algum plug-in. Por outro lado o framework de aplicações complexas na web, incluindo os jogos. Google Web Toolkit tem se mostrado uma boa O objetivo deste tutorial é apresentar o framework alternativa para desenvolvimento de aplicações ricas GWT como uma alternativa para o desenvolvimento de para internet, utilizando a linguagem Java para gerar jogos para internet. Para isso será apresentado como se códigos HTML, CSS e JavaScript. Assim este trabalho dá o desenvolvimento de um jogo nesta tecnologia, tem por objetivo apresentar o framework GWT como sendo um jogo com poucas funcionalidades, porém o solução para o desenvolvimento de jogos para internet suficiente para dar os primeiros passos neste em HTML5, demonstrando todos os passos necessários framework. para codificação de um game loop, animações e interação com o usuário. 2.

Mas Dwyer, 2008, ainda faz a seguinte baseada em C++, porém com suporte apenas parcial à afirmação: “há três áreas específicas em que o GWT orientação a objetos. Javascript é uma linguagem supera o JavaScript: escalabilidade, suporte à interpretada, sendo assim sua velocidade de execução e refatoração, e familiaridade.”. Isso se deve ao fato de sua compatibilidade depende da máquina GWT utilizar a linguagem Java, que apesar de seu interpretadora que o navegador possui. (Nörnberg, nome sugerir o contrário, Java tem mais diferenças 2011) com JavaScript do que igualdades. 3.1 Ambiente de Desenvolvimento 3.

  • 1 Introducing Symfony, Cakephp, and Zend Framework
    1 Introducing Symfony, CakePHP, and Zend Framework An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come. — Victor Hugo WHAT’S IN THIS CHAPTER? ‰ General discussion on frameworks. ‰ Introducing popular PHP frameworks. ‰ Design patterns. Everyone knows that all web applications have some things in common. They have users who can register, log in, and interact. Interaction is carried out mostly through validated and secured forms, and results are stored in various databases. The databases are then searched, data is processed, and data is presented back to the user, often according to his locale. If only you could extract these patterns as some kind of abstractions and transport them into further applications, the developmentCOPYRIGHTED process would be much MATERIAL faster. This task obviously can be done. Moreover, it can be done in many different ways and in almost any programming language. That’s why there are so many brilliant solutions that make web development faster and easier. In this book, we present three of them: Symfony, CakePHP, and Zend Framework. They do not only push the development process to the extremes in terms of rapidity but also provide massive amounts of advanced features that have become a must in the world of Web 2.0 applications. cc01.indd01.indd 1 11/24/2011/24/2011 55:45:10:45:10 PPMM 2 x CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCING SYMFONY, CAKEPHP, AND ZEND FRAMEWORK WHAT ARE WEB APPLICATION FRAMEWORKS AND HOW ARE THEY USED? A web application framework is a bunch of source code organized into a certain architecture that can be used for rapid development of web applications.

  • Abstract Window Toolkit Overview
    In this chapter: • Components • Peers 1 • Layouts • Containers • And the Rest • Summary Abstract Window Toolkit Overview For years, programmers have had to go through the hassles of porting software from BSD-based UNIX to System V Release 4–based UNIX, from OpenWindows to Motif, from PC to UNIX to Macintosh (or some combination thereof), and between various other alternatives, too numerous to mention. Getting an applica- tion to work was only part of the problem; you also had to port it to all the plat- forms you supported, which often took more time than the development effort itself. In the UNIX world, standards like POSIX and X made it easier to move appli- cations between different UNIX platforms. But they only solved part of the prob- lem and didn’t provide any help with the PC world. Portability became even more important as the Internet grew. The goal was clear: wouldn’t it be great if you could just move applications between different operating environments without worr yingabout the software breaking because of a different operating system, win- dowing environment, or internal data representation? In the spring of 1995, Sun Microsystems announced Java, which claimed to solve this dilemma. What started out as a dancing penguin (or Star Trek communicator) named Duke on remote controls for interactive television has become a new paradigm for programming on the Internet. With Java, you can create a program on one platform and deliver the compilation output (byte-codes/class files) to ever yother supported environment without recompiling or worrying about the local windowing environment, word size, or byte order.

  • Drawing in GTK+
    CSci493.70 Graphical User Interface Programming Prof. Stewart Weiss Drawing in GTK+ Drawing in GTK+ Background In order to understand how to draw in GTK, you rst have to understand something about how GTK draws widgets, because how GTK draws widgets has an important role in how you design your drawing application. An understanding of how GTK draws widgets is also required if you ever plan to build your own custom widgets. Windows and Clipping Most windowing systems are designed around the idea that an application's visual display lies within a rectangular region on the screen called its window. The windowing system, e.g. Gnome or KDE or Explorer, does not automatically save the graphical content of an application's windows; instead it asks the application itself to repaint 1 its windows whenever it is needed. For example, if a window that is stacked below other windows gets raised to the top, then a client program has to repaint the area that was previously obscured. When the windowing system asks a client program to redraw part of a window, it sends an exposure event to the program that contains that window. An exposure event is simply an event sent from the underlying windowing system to a widget to notify it that it must redraw itself. In this context, a "window" means "a rectangular region with automatic clipping", not a top-level application window. Clipping is the act of removing portions of a window that do not need to be redrawn, or looked at the other way, it is determining which are the only regions of a window that must be redrawn.

You can check if your local machine has a working version of tkinter by writing and executing a simple Python program consisting of the two lines of code shown below: import tkinter tkinter._test() Upon running this program, a window similar to the one pictured below should appear. If this window appears, then you have a working version of tkinter installed and available to use in your programs! If this window does not appear, then: • Make sure that the function you called is tkinter._test(), with a period followed by an underscore as well as a set of empty parenthesis. • If you are running a version of Python 2, then upgrade your version to Python 3 (this is the standard version for 15-110). • If you cannot upgrade your version of Python, then capitalize all instances of tkinter in the above program and all programs you may write to Tkinter and try again. •

  • Chapter 3 – Design Patterns: Model-View- Controller
    SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURES Chapter 3 – Design Patterns: Model-View- Controller Martin Mugisha Brief History Smalltalk programmers developed the concept of Model-View-Controllers, like most other software engineering concepts. These programmers were gathered at the Learning Research Group (LRG) of Xerox PARC based in Palo Alto, California. This group included Alan Kay, Dan Ingalls and Red Kaehler among others. C language which was developed at Bell Labs was already out there and thus they were a few design standards in place[ 1] . The arrival of Smalltalk would however change all these standards and set the future tone for programming. This language is where the concept of Model-View- Controller first emerged. However, Ted Kaehler is the one most credited for this design pattern. He had a paper in 1978 titled ‘A note on DynaBook requirements’. The first name however for it was not MVC but ‘Thing-Model-View-Set’. The aim of the MVC pattern was to mediate the way the user could interact with the software[ 1] . This pattern has been greatly accredited with the later development of modern Graphical User Interfaces(GUI). Without Kaehler, and his MVC, we would have still been using terminal to input our commands. Introduction Model-View-Controller is an architectural pattern that is used for implementing user interfaces. Software is divided into three inter connected parts. These are the Model, View, and Controller. These inter connection is aimed to separate internal representation of information from the way it is presented to accepted users[ 2] . fig 1 SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURES As shown in fig 1, the MVC has three components that interact to show us our unique information.
