Standard Library Web-Enabling Routines
PV‑WAVE’s standard library contains Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) routines and Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) routines. (For detailed descriptions, see the PV‑WAVE Reference.) Plus, the following routines have been added to facilitate file input and output:
*OPENURL
*READ_XBM
*WRITE_XBM
All of these features—previously available only in the user library or from the Rogue Wave Web site—are now fully supported and integrated into the product.
The PV‑WAVE HTML routines allow you to create World Wide Web documents. Developing HTML directly with PV‑WAVE allows you to put the results of your data visualization and analysis out on the Internet for others to see. Along with graphical representations and formatted reports of your data, HTML makes it convenient for you to describe and highlight important information.
The VRML routines allow you to describe three-dimensional representations of your data that can be viewed with a VRML-enabled browser.
Several other routines are also useful for processing or producing graphical material for usage across the Internet:
*IMAGE_CREATE
*IMAGE_READ
*IMAGE_WRITE
