Hi Bill, You need to have a previous version of GCC with Ada enabled to be able to compile Ada since the Ada front-end is written in Ada.
It is likely that your configure log has a failure for the following checks: checking for gnatbind... gnatbind checking whether compiler driver understands Ada... yes If you're running Linux, your distribution most probably has a separate package for the Ada part of the GCC compiler, you have to install it first. On SUSE 9.3 the packages are named: gnat-runtime-3.3.5-5 gnat-3.3.5-5 On Ubuntu they are named: gnat-4.0 libgnat-4.0 Hope this helps, Laurent On Tue, 2006-05-02 at 11:18 -0400, Bill Cunningham wrote: > Are there any special switches or options needed to compile the ada > package with the core gcc?
