Help! How to bind X and DEC Ada together?

Help! How to bind X and DEC Ada together?

[JASON ~{UES}3I~}]

Hi all,

We currently doing a course project (in group) using DEC ADA 83.
Meanwhile, my group has decided to design a GUI program using X.
However, we have encountered a problem that we don't know how to
bind X and DEC Ada together.  We have downloaded an archive
AdaXlibXt.zip from wuarchive.wustl.edu and tried to compile the
stuffs.  To our disappointment, the compilations failed.

Hereby, we are seeking for the suggestions on how to bind X and
DEC Ada together.  Any suggestions are welcome.

So would you please reply through e-mail?

Thanks for your attention.

Regards,

We downloaded a package for Motif bindings in DEC Ada from the
PAL. See: "languages/ada/bindings/motif/dec" if you want to
download the code or contact Bevin Brett of Digital Equioopment
Corporation (brett@peon.enet.dec.com) who is credited as the
guilty party. We couldn't compile it because we didn't have the
latest version of the compiler, so I can't endorse it fully.

Also, there's a product called XInada by a company called Top
Graph'X (10 Allee de la Mare Jacob, 91290 - La Norville - FRANCE.

Motif, directly in Ada across a number of platforms and at a
reasonable price. (Saw them at the TriAda show - they had stuff
that's cool!)

Both are, IMHO, worth looking at as cost effective solutions.

Marin
