MS Windows GUI tools

  Area there any decent GUI tools which generate Ada code for PCs
  running under MS Windows ?  I have a project that I can develop
  in either C++ or Ada, but I would like to use a GUI generator tool.
  I'd like to use Ada for the project, but it hinges on the GUI tool.
  Any information would help.
                               Thanks
                                  Bob Knazik

I've seen XVT used in other projects here and it works slick.  When I
called the folks at XVT (Boulder, CO) to ask about an Ada binding, they
seemed amused.  After mulling it over internally, they came back with a
very large (I seem to remember $40-45K) non-recurring engineering cost
for the binding.

I understand their position.  DoD's consistent slow-rolling has made it
very expensive for Ada users.  When there is not a large market, the cost
of the tools is high.  They may change their pricing if they see a huge
increase in the size of the market, but that would require religious
changes in the people who are required to use Ada by law.
