GWindows is a full Microsoft Windows Rapid Application Development
framework for programming GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces) with Ada.
GWindows works only with the GNAT development system,
but with some effort, GWindows could be made pure Ada.
GWindows is free and open-source!

Changes to the framework are detailed in gwindows/changes.txt or
in the News forum on the project site.

In a nutshell (since last announcement here):

427: GWindows.Image_Lists: added color options;
includes features of "extended" Ex_Image_List_Type
in package GWindows.Image_Lists.Ex_Image_Lists, which
is marked as obsolescent.
424: GWindows.Application: added function Screen_Visibility.
423: GWindows.Application: added Enumerate_Display_Monitors.
422: GWindows.Base: added Set_Foreground_Window.
421: GWindows.Base: added Set_Active_Window.
417: GWindows.Common_Controls.Ex_Tb (toolbar): is now 64-bit
compatible; see LEA http://l-e-a.sf.net/ ,
LEA_GWin.Toolbars for an example.
414: GWindows.Scintilla: method names are "de-camel-cased":
e.g.: "Move_Caret_Inside_View" instead of
"MoveCaretInsideView".
412: GWindows.Scintilla: works on both Intel x86 32-bit and
x64 64-bit types of platforms.
411: GWindows.Common_Controls.Ex_List_View: method On_Free_Payload
is now public and can be overriden with effect.
410: GWindows.Common_Controls.Ex_List_View: Sort can use a
comparison method not based on strings (e.g. a
numerical comparison).
