The IDLitTool class represents all the functionality provided by a particular instance of an IDL Intelligent Tool. It provides the management systems for the underlying iTool functionality and implements the desired interfaces for external parties to interact with this functionality in a known manner.
This class is written in the IDL language. Its source code can be found in the file idlittool__define.pro in the lib/itools/framework subdirectory of the IDL distribution.
All iTools included with the IDL release are based on a subclass of the IDLitTool class named IDLitToolbase. If your aim is to create a new iTool that shares the common features of the iTools included with IDL, you should base your new iTool on the IDLitToolbase class. Since IDLitToolbase is a subclass of IDLitTool, it inherits all of IDLitTool's methods and properties. Additional features included in the IDLitToolbase class are described in Subclassing from the IDLitToolbase Class.
