The visual development kit (vdk) is a c++ library that wraps the gtk+ toolkit.

the package also includes the vdk component library which contains some useful new components not available in pure gtk+.

programming in vdk is much like programming in vcl and borland c++ builder.

this package contains the header files and static libraries for the vdk c++ and for the vdk component libraries.

install this package if you wish to develop your own x programs using the vdk c++ and the vdk component libraries.
