Subject: What compilers does Oracle's PRO*Ada support?
Date: 16 Oct 92 01:04:39 GMT	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1992Oct16.010439.27805@tybse1.uucp> (raw)

  I see sales literature for Oracle's PRO*Ada only lists Verdix under the list 
of supported compilers.  Does it support any others?  An Oracle salesman 
indicated that the compiler support might depend on the platform. In other 
words, Oracle may only support Rational compilers on a Rational, but may suppor
t
Verdix and DEC Ada on a microvax.

   Since PRO*Ada is an Ada preprocessor, it should translate the embedded SQL
into OCI (Oracle Call Interface) library calls.  Right?  So this should be
standard Ada code compiliable by any Ada compiler.  If PRO*Ada only supports 
Verdix, why?  Do they have stock in the company :->  Or more likely,  do
different Ada compilers expect different object formats for their libraries
and so a Verdix Ada library couldn't be linked by, say, DEC Ada.  Even it's
on the same microvax.

   Can anyone enlighten me on this?
