The aim of the project is to produce a set of object-oriented libraries for the organisation of crystallographic data and the performance of crystallographic computation. The libraries are designed as a framework for new crystallographic software, which will allow the full power of modern programming techniques to be exploited by the developer. This will lead to greater functionality from simpler code which will be easier to develop and debug.
