One or the other approach might more portable, or be better in some situation. If I'm not mistaken, Qt4Ada (by Leonid Dulman) can be used with Ada 95 compilers; it does not depend on so many Ada 2005 anonymous access types as QtAda does. (Can the latter be compiled at all with compilers other than a recent GNAT?) http://users1.jabry.com/adastudio/index.html http://www.qtada.com/ http://qt4ada.sourceforge.net/ (by Yves Bailly, I don't know whether this is an active project) Licenses might differ, too, I think.
