Beaverton, OR (August 29, 2002) - Jiiva, Inc., announces Application
Builder Collection Version 1.2.3 is ready for Jaguar! Application Builder
Collection (ABC) is a professional-grade set of reusable Cocoa frameworks
for building solid Mac OS X applications. Version 1.2.3 is updated to run
on Apple's latest release of Mac OS X, code named Jaguar, and requires
Apple's Developer Tools August 2002 update now available from Apple
Developer Connection. ABC Version 1.2.3 is a free upgrade for existing

interfaces as needed to maintain Jaguar's polished look. ABC is designed to
work in both 10.2 (Jaguar) and 10.1 (Puma) and will modify its look and
feel automatically.

Application Builder Collection is a set of User Interface elements,
reusable objects, and development applications designed to reduce the time
required to build feature-rich Cocoa applications. By reducing the time
needed to put together the basic elements of software, ABC allows a
software development company to focus on the features and design elements
that set its applications apart from the competition.

ABC is an extension to the Cocoa development tools and kits provided by
Apple Computer. The Cocoa development environment has a rich set of objects
for writing powerful applications and ABC builds on this solid foundation
by leveraging existing classes, naming conventions, and design patterns.
ABC is designed to take full advantage of Mac OS X, including the smooth
look of the Aqua interface. ABC is easy for the novice or experienced
programmer to understand and use.
