I'm thinking of developing apps with Ada on the PC.  Being of a slightly
pragmatic nature, I have a few queries/quibbles:

1) Integration with 80x86 assembly/externally compiled code in the
form of Microsoft OBJ files--how well?

2) Object-oriented features; I know Ada83 has inheritable packages,
will 9X have polymorphic packages with methode inheritance?

3) Support libraries esp. for window/mouse/pulldown menu user
interfaces and resource-related--are there any available?

ttyl, Lew.
