Rational APEX is an Integrated Development Environment for Ada (also C, C++ and Java). It includes the native host compiler, CM tool (currently SUMMIT - ver 4.0 will support CLEARCASE as well), editor, linker, various analysis tools, etc. You may be able to buy only pieces of it but it is normally used as a complete IDE. There are options such as the RCI to allow cross compiling for a target that may even be some other company's compiler. Unfortunately many companies (including mine) spend the considerable amount it cost and then don't fully utilize its capabilities.
