GlutMainLoop in Ada

GlutMainLoop in Ada

[Bruce or Tracy Jacobs]

Searched to no avail on Google, so I'll post the question. 

Does anyone have or know where I can obtain an Ada implementation 
of the GLUT procedure GlutMainLoop?  

TIA, 
Bruce

Did you check http://sourceforge.net/projects/adaopengl/ ?

Checked some downloads and used their search engine.  Didn't see it.

Are you looking for an actual GLUT implementation written in Ada or an Ada
specification binding that allows you to call GlutMainLoop?  If the first, I
don't know where you can find that; however, we can find the binding in the
package OpenGL.GLUT.

I was looking for the procedure implemented in Ada.  I have the bindings.

I saw one website that showed how to modify the C code so that it would return
control
back to the user instead of hogging control in its loop.  However, I do not know
how
to do all the "C" stuff the author suggested.   : (   May have to dig into "C"
and see
if I can make that happen.

Thank you.
Bruce

Here, for instance: http://homepage.sunrise.ch/mysunrise/gdm/g3d.htm

See Dem_GL_1, the call GLUT.MainLoop;

Re: GlutMainLoop in Ada

Not completely what I was looking for, but that package is opening some
possibilities.
I was needing a keyboard callback, and apparently this one has one.  I
will see if
I can duplicate these handlers into my Ada program and see what happens.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough before.  What I was actually looking for
is an Ada
implementation of the entire "glutMainLoop" routine - coded in Ada -
that I can
just include directly into my Ada program in place of a call to
glutMainLoop, and
control the looping myself instead of Glut controlling it.  I have a C++
implementation,
but it is calling C stuff for which I do not see Ada bindings.

I will run with this example and see if I can overcome my problems with
that code.

Thank you,
Bruce
