SL has released the latest version 6.6b of SL-GMS C++/Developer and its extended options, C++/Map, C++/Net and Custom Editor, for both 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the products.

SL-GMS C++/Developer is SL's long-time selling development tool that enables dynamic visualization of real-time data, and is used by thousands of mission critical systems in control centers and rooms around the world for process control in energy, network monitoring, traffic control and aerospace/defense.

This latest release of SL-GMS C++/Developer offers support for Microsoft Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015. SL-GMS has proven its performance and reliability over several mission-critical projects, handling over 100,000 data points and over 1,000 displays. From high-level nationwide displays, down to detailed street-level maps with over 100,000 dynamic objects. Its scalability has also been demonstrated by usage from standalone SCADA systems to large DCSs.

SL-GMSDraw dynamic graphic editor enables creation of reusable graphic objects that can be leveraged across numerous displays, as well as with other SL-GMS products for Java and Microsoft .NET. SL-GMS Custom Editor allows users to easily build an application-specific custom editor for its field-support and end users. Together, these functionalities have been driving the highest productivity in developing and maintaining advanced control systems.

While the advanced control systems developed with SL-GMS C++/Developer in 1980s and 1990s are still running today, SL-GMS C++/Developer continues to be deployed in new projects every year. Over the past 30 years since 1983, the industry has shifted from VMS and UNIX to Windows and Linux. SL-GMS's true object oriented architecture has made it possible to evolve with new operating systems, platforms and frameworks, and continue to make enhancements to meet today's mission-critical system requirements.
