Re: using package GNAT.Traceback

["Chad R. Meiners" <crmeiners@hotmail.com>]

Hmm...  Although reading the documentation is in general a good idea, the
"GNAT User's Guide" is not by any means the most fascinating set of 52,805
words available.  When the document is 155 pages of nitty gritty detail, I
would expect that there is a high probability that the existence of the -E
binder switch would be missed.  Now it would make sense that since you did
note that "this is only available on selected targets. Currently it is only
supported on Sparc/Solaris and x86/Linux." that you probably should have
made the comment that you needed to lookup the appropriate switches in the
user's guide.  Maybe GNAT should support a pragma Compile_Time_Assertion
which could be used the generate a custom warning message at compile time if
the switch settings are inappropriate.
