Programming
Adabindx -- an Ada-binding to the X Window System
and *tif
To use Ada with my favourite operating system
Linux
I wrote a binding from Ada to the X window system.
This is a collection of Ada sources which enables
a program written in Ada to use the X window (and
OSF/Motif
® or
lesstif, if available)
routines.
The binding is currently used in student projects in cooperation with Dr. Peter Hermann
(Peter Hermann's Home
Page),
see
Adapilot Home Page.
Current release:
Version 0.7.2 (stable): adabindx-0.7.2.tar.gz
(a gzipped tar archive, 296kB) or adabindx-0.7.2.tar.bz2

See CHANGES-File for the changes compared to the
previous release.

NEW: patch (patch-0.7.1-0.7.1a) that adds some types and procedures provided by Joerg Schäfer and Vadim Godunko.
Many thanks to them. Version changed to 0.7.1a.
NOTE: to patch the sources go to your adabindx-directory (e.g. $HOME/adabindx-0.7.1) and there type
shell-prompt$ patch < path-to-patch/patch-0.7.1-0.7.1a
and then
shell-prompt$ make
which should recompile the changed files and those depending on them.
