Maybe for a GUI building software the approach is not the same
as for a compiler itself. The logical steps may seem more
logical for the people who develop (and already know) it and,
if you have to read a long documentation just to make the whole work
together and finally realize that a basic aspect of the software is
not stable or finished enough for your needs - just a theoretical
hypothesis, not related to Gtk or any other - it could be a bit
frustrating. Imagine also you want to convince a company to
use Ada and that *their* people will succeed to use a
GUI building software, it could be hard to do without a perfectly
working "out of the CD" demo version. Simply - IHMO - because
a non user-friendly, software meant to build user-friendly
software can appear suspicious...
Maybe the current version of ObjectAda has a convenient solution ?
