View Hierarchies: Two Perspectives

There are two ways of looking at how views are constructed:

• Window-oriented. From the viewpoint of somebody sitting in front of a screen and using Views, different kinds of views are assembled into various windows having different appearances. In fact they are created one after the other.

• Class-oriented. From a C++ viewpoint, the IlvView and related classes enable you to create the different kinds of views that together create windows.
