3DDeviceServer

Status:

Version 0.51 (GNUware)

Description:

This NeXTSTEP application is a general purpose device server. It is the central part of a collection of various device drivers for many different 3D hardware tools. With the help of NeXTs DO/PDO system it will allow an easy 'plug-in' into existing software that may run distributed accross a network.

The server tries to simplify shared access to one hardware device by multiple clients (or lets call them: device targets). In addition to that it will allow switching between different devices while they are in use.

For more details see the relating README file.

Comments:

"With NeXTs DO it is very simple to benefit from the power of 3D input devices. Try it."
