The SoWin library is a C++ GUI toolkit that binds together the Coin rendering library with the user interface parts of the MSWindows Win32 API, thereby providing application programmers a convenient method of using the Coin library from MSWindows development environments.

By using the combination of Coin and SoWin for your 3D applications, you have a complete framework for writing software for Microsoft Windows operating systems.

SoWin, like Coin, provides the programmer with a high-level application programmer's interface (API) in C++. The library primarily includes a class-hierarchy of viewer components of varying functionality and complexity, with various modes for the end-user to control the 3D-scene camera interaction.
