I use GtkAda.  For prototypes (an occassionally also for the final
version) I use the Glade GUI builder to generate the code, and then
just fill in the application specific code.

It is likely that you will have to look into "package Interfaces.C",
"pragma Import" and representation clauses for that purpose, but it
isn't hard.  And once it is done, you have a nice, elegant interface
to the drivers.
