Re: Is there an installation guide for Windows GNAT?

[John Kern <jkern3@visteon.com>]

Gautier sent me a batch file which sets the PATH, ADA_INCLUDE_PATH, and
the ADA_OBJECTS_PATH which I can now run in a DOS window and
successfully
gnatmake hello
Thank you kindly.  I am now trying to get AdaGIDE to work.  Another
suggestion was to (manually) add the bin directory to the environment
thru the NT Control panel->system->environment, but I now get a message:
'Unable to start compiler, Check path environment variable, Error code
:2' when I press the compile (or build) button in AdaGIDE with hello.adb
open.  Did I need to also add ADA_OBJECTS_PATH and ADA_INCLUDE_PATH to
the environment?  How could I be the only one having these problems? 
Did I need to be logged on as Administrator for the install script to
have automatically populated my environment?
