What I do is I load the demos.gpr into gnat-gps. On this version all the examples are in one directory which I notice is different to the source down load from core. 
   The version I am using is libaws 2.7 (2.7.4 on synaptic) on debian squeeze. I am copying the examples from the /usr/share/doc/libaws-doc directory.
   The comand and error is

tony@comms:~/tryout/examples$ gnatmake -P demos.gpr
demos.gpr:22:30: "../.build/common/demos" is not a valid directory
demos.gpr:45:15: source file "rdemo.ads" cannot be found
demos.gpr:45:28: source file "rdemo.adb" cannot be found
demos.gpr:51:15: source file "rdemo-adains_png.ads" cannot be found
demos.gpr:51:39: source file "rdemo-page3_html.ads" cannot be found
gnatmake: "demos.gpr" processing failed

I am wondering if I need to process some files using AWSres but I don't know what files.

I successfully compiled and linked the ws_elements example on the source download but I got a storage error after I ran it and tried the AJAX example. The rest of the example ran fine but the ajax bit was what I wanted to see.
