I can address some of your questions:
1. Can Ada (Assume gnat) produce standalone Windows executables?
There are at least 5 vendors selling Ada compilers that target
Windows, including Gnat. They vary in price and features. (Duh!)
Look at www.adapower.com for links.
2. Are there "good" libraries available for GUI, Winsockets and database
connectivity?
Win32Ada A "thin" 1-1 binding that comes with Gnat and Aonix compilers.
Ada Foundation Classes binding to MFC is available at least for Aonix.
Jewl (John English's Windows Library) is available on the net. A
recent .zip file was 175K long.
GWindows - Win32 RAD Ada 95 GUI Development Framework is available
on the net. A recent zip was 360K
Claw (Class Library for Ada Windows) A stripped down version is available
for free on the net. A recent zip was 430K
Windex, an object-oriented thick binding is available on the net.
A recent zip was 620K
Claw full version is available via www.rrsoftware.com A recent
zip was 1.6M, with a 95 page printed manual.
Several sockets bindings are available on the net.
An ODBC binding is available on the net, 50K zip.
A binding to GTK is also available.
Many of these can be downloaded for free. They vary greatly in features.
Look at www.adapower.com for links.
Full Disclosure: I'm one of the developers of Claw.
