I'm actually glad to hear that the SGI compiler is based on GNAT, since GNAT has been the best we've dealt with for C/Fortran/Ada interfacing. I'm not sure exactly what kind of problems people have had with the newer versions. Suffice to say, we'll need a support contract, with whichever compiler is ultimately chosen for the task. One of my colleagues is going to investigate APEX as well... do any of you helpful people have any experience with this one?

Sure we can get around it... but all the Ada code has already been written. We want miminal changes, if any at all... V.
