Summary: Verdix sucks, any other good Unix compilers?? Keywords: ada compiler Message-ID: <1990Aug9.191734.11633@sctc.com> Date: 9 Aug 90 19:17:34 GMT Distribution: comp.lang.ada Organization: Secure Computing Technology Corporation List-Id: I have been using VADS Version 5 Unix self-hosting for 7 months now and I cannot take it anymore. I am up to my eyeballs in "internal errors" ,"database inconsistency","segmentation error,core dump","out of memory". 4 of us used DEC VMS Ada version 1!!! for 1 and half years and I can only remember about 4 or 5 errors. Myself in 7 months has found more errors then that in a Version 5 compiler!!! I am at the point of bypassing the recompile facilities and building my own Unix scripts for recompiling and linking. So tell me, am I the only one??? Tell me I'm not going insane, I'm almost regretting moving from C to Ada (now that's desperate). Are there any other compilers out there who's databases don't go south on a sneeze. That implement generics in a fashion so that they compile. That has a runtime system without endless loops. That has library management tools that don't core dump and spit out Diana trees. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
