Release 2.0 works with the Microsoft Win32 Application Programming Interface available on Windows NT and Windows 95. Its major features are: direct binding between Ada and C, so programmers' knowledge of the Win32 API can be reused and existing Windows documents and books can be reused; extensive coverage of the Win32 API; good Ada 95 style; extensive online help including Ada help and hyperlinks to the Microsoft help for the C language API; a small but interesting library of sample programs written in Ada 95 which perform Windows functions. Win32Ada has been tested on Intel 486 and Pentium platforms using Windows NT 3.5, Windows NT 3.51, Windows 95, and the GNAT 3.01 Ada 95 compiler. Development of Win32Ada was funded by the Ada Joint Program Office. -Carl Bowman Ada Information Clearinghouse
