Documents technical-oriented information that will help developers further extend and exploit gCube’s source code. The document will target two classes of programmers:
- Those who want to interface with gCube or to reuse gCube code – Programmers who will use gCube’s libraries to build their own tools, without need to access the source code.
- Those who want to modify/extend the source code – Programmers who will use the platforms source code to enhance it, correct it, adapt it to different environments and applications domains.
The Guide is organised as follows. Overview provides the developer with a general summary of the gCube technology. How-to provides the developer with pragmatic, detailed and practical advice on gCube technology. Components Programming Reference Sections provide the developer with a detailed description of the gCube constituents organising them according to a Functionality-oriented View and a Data-typology-oriented View.
