PLATFORM ABSTRACTION OF GRAPHICS

摘要

The described technology is directed towards a graphics platform abstraction layer that couples an application program's user interface objects to any of a variety of underlying platforms, including browsers that host the application program or the operating system's UI objects. The graphics platform abstraction layer loads an appropriate implementation for calling objects of the underlying platform, and interfaces the application program to the implementation, whereby the application program may be independent of any underlying platform. The graphics platform abstraction layer also may load code that deals with quirks of a given browser / version and/or other vendor-specific details.
