There should be an option in Protogen that allows using OWL with C++ or
just SDK calls with C.  Try switching it to the latter and give it a
try.  It worked for me.

For each control (menu or button) there is entry in a switch statement.
Protogen generates special pairs of comments for each of these.  Any
code added there is preserved in successive generations.  There are also
comment pairs for the top of each file (the header section) where you
can declare variables and include your own header files.

This approach is IMHO a very powerfull way to go.  Sun Microsystems
sells a  similar tool for X Windows that uses the same approach.  We
will be looking very strongly at using Protogen for production software.
