Welcome to the Phantom Development Home Page. Below you will find some information about our products Digital Quill and ClassAct, and some interesting Amiga related links. This page is under construction, please pardon our dust!
ClassAct provides object-oriented building blocks for your application development in the form of Intuition BOOPSI object classes available as either shared run-time or link-time libraries. As they are standard classes, they may be used with any application environment supporting BOOPSI. However, ClassAct is a complete GUI system in its own right, supporting everything from simple buttons to an advanced listview class, and includes a complete window and layout engine classes that lets you create font-sensitive and resizable interfaces quickly and easily. Since all the BOOPSI work is done for you, you can spend your time implementing your program, not learning how to author BOOPSI classes or struggling with limitations of GadTools.
Programs that use ClassAct can be made freely distributable, shareware, commercial, etc. as there is NO FEE for users! When you purchase ClassAct, users of your software get to use all the functions of ClassAct. This not only makes ClassAct a powerful and time-saving choice for software developers, but an affordable and convenient one for users as well.
Users of ClassAct may configure ClassAct's visual appearance in a number of ways using the freely available ClassAct prefs program.
For example:
Since ClassAct all classes are BOOPSI, they automatically support all sorts of great features, such as window relatively (resizability), OS 3.x HelpTest, Notification, and Interconnections with other BOOPSI classes (which do not necessarily have to be ClassAct classes). ClassAct is designed for optimum speed and efficiency, often considerably faster than competing comparable systems.
All ClassAct classes are compatible with 2.04 (V37) thru 3.1 (V40) releases of the Amiga operating system and take advantage of performance increases available in release 3.x.
