WELCOME TO THE GENIUS WIKI

!!! BE CAREFUL, THIS WIKI IS UNDER UPDATE FOR THE GENIUS V1.7 version !!!

What does GENIUS means ?

GENIUS means GENeration of Interface for Users of Scientific S/W.

Why GENIUS ?

In Java world, basic tools, as swing, may become relatively complex to use because it stays at a certain low level (on the opposite, it allows to do a lot of things). Moreover, GUI for flight dynamics tools (or, more generally, scientific tools) need most of the time :

• To enter input (numerical) data from the screen or the keyboard
• To read / write these data into files
• To execute computation thanks to these data,
• To visualize results

So, GENIUS, is a CNES higher level layer based on swing, fully written in Java (no need of code generation) but allowing to create more easily such GUI.

Main advantages

• Simplified approach, in particular about events management (BEFORE, AFTER)
• Performing conditional display
• Read/write for files directly integrated
• Units management
• Process management compatible of all OS (thanks to Java).
• As it is coded in Java, this product is available for any kind of platforms owning Java.
• GENIUS is provided as Open Source under license Apache 2.0. Java doc is accessible via this site.
