This is in response to the question posted on 1 Aug 90 by Ken Anderson.

Mr. Anderson was using version 5.41 of the Verdix Ada compiler (VADS).  When
attempting a new recompilation after not using VADS for some time, he
encountered an error message stating that a number of C library entry points
were undefined (running on a Sun 3 host).

VADS compiles Ada by generating calls to the C library for operating system
functions.  Apparently the C library had been removed from the Adapath since
the last compile.  Adding -lc to the end of the a.ld command will force the
inclusion of the C library.

Verdix is now shipping version 6.o of VADS.  This is several revs later than
5.41, and I would urge you and antone else working with an older version to
upgrade to the current rev of VADS.

Finally, the place to report VADS problems via E-mail is report@verdix.com.
This will insure a swift response through our standard Verdix support channels.
