http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_Windows_Library

In 1993 Borland launched Borland C++ 2.0 for OS/2 which included a version of OWL 2.0.
OWL 2.0 used BIDS, the newer template library for 'container' or 'class library'.

In January 1994 Borland launched Borland C++ 4.0 for Windows which also included OWL 2.0.
It added Doc/View support, VBX controls, OLE. Win16, Win32s and Win32 was supported
(Windows 95, the Win32 successor of Windows 3.x appeared in August 1995).

Late in 1994, Novell CEO Raymond Noorda resigned.
Novell expansion plans were reconsidered,
AppWare development was stopped and so was OWL for AppWare.
In 1995 a group of original team members bought AppBuilder.
In the same year, Software UNO (www.uno.com) offered a commercial port for OWL 2.0,
to several platforms:
AIX 3.2.5, DEC Alpha OSF/1, HP-UX 9.03, Linux 1.2, Solaris 2.x, Sun OS 4.1.x, and SVR4 fox x86,
it was called WM_MOTIF.
