It is more accurate to think of AdaSage as an application-development
toolkit, rather than a set of libraries. AdaSage includes Thor,
which supports both screen and database accesses (and maybe reports
-- but it's been awhile since I did work with AdaSage).
So, I can see why they have different versions, depending on the
platform.
I'm not saying AdaSage is a good or bad tool, nor am I passing judgement
on the portability of the applications developed using AdaSage.
