Has anyone out there used the "SGI Developer Magic ProDev Ada95"
compiler?

The information provided on the SGI website
(http://www.sgi.com/Products/DevMagic/products/project_ada95.html)
seems to indicate that its the tool for the task at hand.

The task at hand is to incorporate Ada into large infrastructure
based in C and Fortran, on the SGI Irix platform.  I want to
call the Ada from C and Fortran, without any limitations.  
The Verdix compiler we have now doesn't allow "in out" parameters
in procedures.. just "out" parameters.  Also, we're able to link
and run basic programs in GNAT... but have been having other
problems with newer versions of GNAT.  The last stable version 
seems to be 3.09.  Therefore, we're a bit GNAT-wary. 

We don't need all the graphical-debugger and fancy stuff like 
that provided by SGI.  We just want a stable, robust Ada compiler,
which produces object files we can link in with our existing software. 
Is SGI Ada95 the answer? 

V.
