Rogue Wave? LEIF is a framework for creating scalable, high-performance service-based applications using new or existing C++ development code. By allowing organizations to tap into existing business applications to create new, service-oriented applications, LEIF eliminates the costly and time-consuming need to rewrite existing business logic contained in legacy applications. With these increased efficiencies, LEIF allows customers to easily transition to a service-oriented architecture (SOA).
