Conditional Compilation ?

Conditional Compilation ?

[Joe Simon]

We are currently using the 

VADS Ada Compiler, Copyright 1984, 1996
VADSworks Sun Sparc Solaris 2.x -> PowerPC, Version 3.1 for VxWorks 5.3

What I would like to do is a port of the software to a linux platform
and
use the gnat platform to compile (not cross compile). 

My question is about conditional compilation,

we have many instances of the following code

# if xxxx_MISSION'defined and then xxxx_MISSION then
      Mission_Planner_Data  : Tct.Act_Mission_Planning_Type;
# end if;

Does gnat have conditional compilation of this form built in, or is
there
some other tool that will accomplish this ?

GNAT does have a preprocessor. I have never used it so I cannot say
much about it.

Nevermind, Found it

Thanks,

I just found it, gnatprep. 

Works perfectly with my code.

Joe,

What are your feelings, please, about the use of a preprocessor with Ada
code? Your opinion much appreciated.
