Help Request: Parsing Ada & Understanding, Maintaining, Extending Legacy Ada

[pth@darrach.net]

Hi,

Headway has a product, Headway Review that reverse engineers Ada to
provide an extremely detailed model of all the dependencies in your
code. Review's focus is in on the architecture/structure of the code
and the code's metrics.

We are in process of replacing Review with our next generation product
line, Structure101, and we would like to better understand how portable
our current Ada parsing capability is and whether to continue with it
for Structure101. Our parsing technology is based on the GNAT ASIS
implementation and besides GNAT users we are currently aware of
customers with VADS, Greenhills and SunAda codebases who are working
away happily with Review.

If there is anyone out there with non-GNAT Ada code who might be
interested to better understand how the code hangs together, we would
be very interested to hear if you could get it easily loaded into
Review. We'd be happy to help in this process and have noted with
recent Greenhills and SunAda codebases that it really wasnt too
difficult.

You can download Review from
http://headwaysoftware.com/downloads/review/ or contact me directly,
details below if this is of interest.

best regards,
Paul
