This page contains various resources about Eiffel, an object oriented programming language promoting reusability and software correctness.

What's new

• Small changes to Nenie Net (CVS): Gobo 3.2; tests now pass with eiffel.com's compiler in addition to SmartEiffel (2003-10-11)
• Don't forget the Eiffel Struggle 2003 (2003-10-10)
• Home page layout now uses CSS. (2002-10-26)
• Nenie XML is now fully integrated in the release version of Gobo from 3.0, please use this. (2002-10-01)
• Some basic documentation for Nenie Net is now available in CVS (net/doc/overview.txt). (2002-09-01)
• The Nenie XML parser has now been integrated within the Gobo development tree (Nenie XML 0.1 can still be used with Gobo 2.0 release). Gobo XML includes a complete DOM-like tree (from eXml) and a new stream-based event framework. The only missing bit from Nenie XML in Gobo is the simplified data-centric tree (to be reviewed). New to this parser in Gobo: interface to DTD events. At the current time it also uses UC_STRING rather than UTF8-in-a-STRING but a new version of UC_STRING in Gobo which inherits from STRING will solve most issues that a distinct UC_STRING class has. (2002-04-01)
• Networking library now uses Gobo Test framework for more formal and convenient tests. Crypto classes now include DES, Triple DES block ciphers, with CBC and CFB streaming, and some nicer interface classes (2001-12-17).
• Site moved to a new host (2001-12-10).
• Nenie XML 0.1 is released (2001-07-14).
• Code freeze for Nenie XML release 0.1. Now passes 99.5% of the OASIS XML 1.0 Conformance Test Suite's binary tests (2001-07-09).
• First crypto class in Nenie Net: MD5 hash function in pure Eiffel. Some work done on webmail client, pop3 (2001-06-30).
• Fenestra and Pylon documentation source now converted to XML and put into CVS in respective /doc. XSLT-based HTML generation in misc/xmldoc. Next: graphics, Lout filter (2001-05-18)
• Fenestra's flat-short forms (current CVS state as of 2000-11-12)
• Current development version of Fenestra now uses Gobo structures (2000-11-11)
• Webshort, a web version of SmallEiffel's short utility (2000-01-02)
• Public CVS repository now online! (2000-01-02)

Open Source

Nenie.org's sourcecode is hosted in a CVS repository at Sourceforge.

Nenie XML is a portable XML 1.0 parser and support library in Eiffel, now integrated within the Gobo library.

Fenestra is a Win32 API GUI library, which aimed at being high level rather than just a wrapper, and portable between Eiffel compilers. It is not actively maintained.

Pylon is a compact foundation library, similar in intent to the kernel and data structure elements of the Gobo library, which in the meantime has become established and is recommended for new projects.

Other small freeware Eiffel programs and libraries.

Links

Eric Bezault's Gobo project offers libraries and tools, covering data structures, parsing and lexical analysis and other resources.

The Cetus Eiffel page lists most Eiffel libaries. NICE is the Eiffel standard body, currently working on updating the kernel library, while the language itself is under standardisation by ECMA.

SmartEiffel is a free Eiffel compiler. Commercial vendors such as Eiffel Software and Object Tools offer free evaluation versions.
