The mac version is based upon Apples update to gcc 3.2 which has a lot of fixes to it, and our update to the ada code. Andrew and Alan Reynolds have done a lot of work on the compile to make it work well with mac and fixed a number of bugs. A couple of companies have now ported ada products to mac using it, and i am using it with our companies line of radar sims and it works great, so while there are some things we would like to get fixed (like zero cost exceptions for mac) we are pretty happy with how well it works. thanks jim In article , Arnaud Charlet wrote: > As for your specific question, Jim, building with gcc 3.x version of > GNAT may work, if you have a 3.x recent enough, which is not the case > with e.g. GNAT 3.2 as built and shipped by Redhat, which is why this > approach is not recommended nor suggested.
