gnat - asis inconsistency

[gregmatu]

Hi,
I have problem with gnat and asis.
I instlled winNT version of GNAT 3.14p (20010503) and ASIS version 2.0.R for GNAT 3.14p (20010503).
When I try to check if ASIS is properly installed (following advices in readme file in asis distribution) with assist tool then I received message( at open(lib) step ): command issued in assist) that unhandled exception is raised PPROGRAM_Error due to inconsisten versions of GNAT and ASIS.
But versions and builds for are the same for both (as shown at beginning of the message).
Do anybody can help me!??, please.

There is a bug in the GNAT ASIS 3.14p distribution, here's a posting on
how to fix it from earlier this year:

There's a bug (which I have already reported to ACT) in this
ASIS version.

You can correct that yourself:

Open the file gnat\gnatvsn.ads in the ASIS-for-GNAT 3.14p
distribution in your favorite text editor and insert a space
in the Gnat_Version_String after the "3.14p" so that the whole
line reads 

   Gnat_Version_String : constant String := "3.14p  (20010503)";

(with *two* spaces in the string literal.)

Then re-install ASIS-for-GNAT.
