Message-ID: <p8lpr4$bgl$1@dont-email.me> (raw)
I've written on here before that I think the traditional
register-callbacks-and-call-a-procedure GUI interface is a hack only suitable
for sequential languages, and attempted to describe my idea of how a GUI for a
concurrent language like Ada should work. Some have expressed the opinion that
such an interface is not possible.
I've now written a very minimal GUI interface embodying my concepts. It
implements text boxes and buttons, as that is the minimum for an example that
actually does something faintly interesting. For an example, I've used the
Random_Int demo from Gnoga.
I've also made a quick and dirty implementation of the interface on top of
Gnoga, and a version of Random_Int using the interface. Though the Gnoga version
of Random_Int is very simple and fairly easy to understand, this version is
easier to understand.
Those interested can find Ada_GUI at
https://github.com/jrcarter/Ada_GUI
Those who like programming by extension won't like it.
