NASHUA, New Hampshire, November 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Northwoods Software today announced the first public release of its new GoXam family of products. GoXam allows developers to easily add interactive diagrams to their WPF and Silverlight applications.

GoXam was designed from the beginning to fully support Microsoft XAML and is the first diagram component to fully take advantage of data-binding, templates, and styling. As a result, data templates completely define the appearance and behavior of all nodes, links, and groups. The templates bind to application data. In addition, the whole diagram is bound to a model that automatically examines the application data and determines the node-to-node relationships (links) and the group-membership relationships. The model helps keep the diagram in synch with your data without requiring explicit programming.

GoXam offers dramatic increases in programmer productivity as well as improving the visual quality and increasing the performance of the resulting applications.
