It brings AdaPower ;-) to programming domains that up until now are dominated by VB and Delphi. GWindows includes extensive bindings to the Windows GUI including support for common controls and dialogs, printing, and owner drawn extensions to controls. In addition, GWindows adds a number of new controls, keyboard support, multiple models of event handling, Active X controls, support for creating dialogs and windows from resource files, dynamic garbage collected windows, Window docking, non-GUI bindings, database support, _database bound controls_, and much more! GWindows builds as either ANSI or UNICODE (a first for Ada!) for internationalization and performance boosts on Windows NT, 2000, and XP. GWindows is tightly integrated with GNATCOM, the Ada 95 COM/DCOM/COM+ Development Framework and Tools opening every facet of the Windows platforms to Ada 95 development. Never again will the cries be heard, "but there are no bindings" on the Windows platform! GWindows is designed to take advantage of Ada's unique combination of features rich typing mechanisms. It is not a thin binding to an underlying C interface, but a complete framework that takes advantage of Ada at every level. GWindows is being used world wide for production products by governments and large companies to small personal projects. Verision 1.1 of GWindows adds additional stability and improved support for ActiveX controls, a binding to the Scinittla programmers editor control and a Tcl/Tk control. GWindows is being made available under the GNAT modified GNU GPL used by GNAT's runtime library making it availble for use in both GPL and proprietary applications.
