Ada & RTLinux

Ada & RTLinux

[Marc Enzmann]

Hi there,

I need to interface a standard PC with some sensors and actuators via
ADC and
DAC units. As the timing requirements are quite harsh, I have to take a
real-time OS into consideration. 
Two possible candidates are RTLinux and QNX. However as far as I know,
there is
no Ada Compiler available on QNX. Therefore my question: has anybody
written
Ada programs for RTL ? Is there any information about this on the web ?

TIA,

Marc

 i have done this  few years  ago , as  i remember you have to mimic C
 the only trouble was with the  registrations string  or somthing like that,
 it  worked  .
   I have seen  the same thing  in    Ada Letter-s   a  year  later ,  so it
would  be the best  to search  .
