Ada bindings to OSF/Motif

Ada bindings to OSF/Motif

[Gertjan van Oosten]

I am looking for Ada bindings to OSF/Motif.

In my comp.lang.ada folder, I only have the following message on this
topic (slightly edited):

Does anyone (Karl?) have information that is more up-to-date
(less out-of-date?)?

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Many compiler vendors and third party sources are available.  I highly
recommend those (although I won't name names, since I have worked on some of
them), since I expect that they will have better integration and
tailorability to specific compiler host/target platforms.  There are partial
bindings available from ftp.ulowell.edu and stars.rosslyn.unisys.com (see
attached FTP listings).

Also, the Rational Xlib (xlib implemented in Ada, running on a few
platforms, and with a nice compilation order dependency tool for UNIX
machines) is available on export.lcs.mit.edu (also see attached FTP
listing).
