Hi,

I have been looking over Ada (the 95 variant) and it looks like a great
language. Are there any free (as in no license restrictions, not GPL-
anything) GUI libraries? What choices are there for handling output
besides text? gcc-Ada looks good but I prefer to avoid gcc as much as I can
and I also haven't found anything but GtkAda that seems to be GPLed.

What Ada toolchains are available for 64 bit Linux that can be used to
generate 32 or 64 bit Linux/UNIX executables that are in a hobbyist's price
range (let's say up to 1000 USD). Do they include their own GUI libraries?
Do they include any data base bindings? What else should I look for? I
don't need a 2005 compliant toolchain as far as I know. I'll be ok with an
Ada95 compiler. And will I be able to generate Windows executables from any
of these Linux-based toolchains?

Basically I want to know what kind of investment I need to make to have an
unencumbered Ada95 toolchain with all the features I need to write and
deploy general applications without having to go fishing for libraries.

Thank you.
