I switched long time ago (few years). I do not know the Ada mode version I= used, but if 5.0 is fairly recent, almost surely I used an old one. Why did I switch? Well, there is no a special reason for that. I tried GP= S and I liked it, although at that time it was not perfect. =20 I guess that what I like most in GPS are the nice integration with the othe= r Adacore tools, the auto-completion of aggregate constants and function ca= lls, the possibility of jumping to a function/procedure/type/... definition= with a ctrl-click. I never used SPARK (so far), but from the menus it se= ems to me that SPARK is nicely integrated too. Riccardo
