BALL is Rapid Software Prototyping can significantly reduce development times in the field of Computational Molecular Biology and Molecular Modeling. BALL (Biochemical Algorithms Library) is an application framework in C++ that has been specifically designed for this purpose.



BALL has been carefully designed to be robust, easy to use, and open to extensions. Especially its extensibility which results from an object-oriented and generic programming approach distinguishes it from other software packages.

BALL is well suited to serve as a public repository for reliable data structures and algorithms. Based on BALL we have developed a stand-alone tool for molecular visualization, BALLView . BALLView makes the broad functionality available through an integrated user-friendly GUI.

What's New in This Release:
This version finally brings full support for Python, DLLs, and nmake Makefiles under Windows.
A large number of prominent fixes were made, especialy for g++ 4.x.
Some new functionality was added to BALLView.
