Looking for Ada compiler for uport System V.3/386

Looking for Ada compiler for uport System V.3/386

[Dr. Orville R. Weyrich]

I am looking for an Ada compiler to run on my Microport Unix System V.3
386 box. I would gladly accept any recommendations regarding where I can
obtain a good and/or cheap implementation for this configuration. I would
also welcome any pros/cons you know about. I am considering trying to run
Meridian AdaVantage under DOS MERGE, but this is not likely to work very
well (especially for tasking), and anyway, I want to develop software for
Unix, not MS-DOS.

I will post a summary if demand indicates; otherwise, I will respond
via e-mail to requests for summaries.

Thanks,

The November validated compiler list shows 386/Unix systems from RR
(SCO Xenix, Interactive Unix 2.1, SCO Unix 3.2), TeleSoft (AIX, MultibusI
Unix, Interactive Unix), Meridian (Xenix 2.3.2). I am entirely unfamiliar
with the various 386 Unix ports, so can't comment on the compatibility
issues here. But it's a starting point. It's a safe bet that if you can
get an Ada for this configuration it'll come from one of the above 3
companies. Also several have done Sun/386 versions - add Verdix to the list
for this.

Good luck!
