new solution provides a faster and easier way to create Gantt charts and it
easily integrates into any .NET application through Microsoft’s Visual
Studio .NET or Borland C# builder.

ILOG Gantt for .NET follows on the heels of the recent launch of ILOG CPLEX
for .NET and the availability of the ILOG Optimization Suite. ILOG has been
dedicated to creating sophisticated and graphically rich tools and engines
for a variety of industries including manufacturing, transportation,
telecommunications and security.

This ability can decrease development time on small applications from months to literally minutes. That’s because DesktopX is already designed to make creating desktop “widgets” very easy. Turning these “widgets” into applications takes only a few seconds.
