A General Purpose Graphics Support Library for the Ada Programming Language Hosted on the Zenith H/Z-100 Computer.

Abstract

This thesis explores the requirements necessary to develop a graphics support library for the Ada programming language hosted on the Zenith H/A-100 microcomputer. A prototype graphics library is implemented in 8086 assembly language embedded in an Ada package. The library operates with JANUS/Ada under the CP/M-86 operating system. Listings of library routines developed are provided as well as a user's guide and demonstration programs. Potential areas for further investigation and development are suggested. It is concluded that an Ada graphics library for microcomputers is feasible and practical. Keywords: Computer programs; Computer programming; Computer graphics. (Theses)
