Last I checked the emacs mode for Ada uses an obsolete form of project files. There are attempts to remedy this but I have not yet seen the results. As beginner I suggest you try GPS instead (you can still use Emacs for editing). For 32 bit Linux you get GPS 3.1.3 from Libre [1] for 64bit SuSE Linux there is also GPS 4.0.0 version from the GNU Ada Project [2] available. > How can i compile ada-sources? Best you use "gnat make" (as one word or two words - both works almost the same). Jeffrey posted some details. You might also want to read [3]. As it is a make (and not just "gnat compile") it will to all the work needed. Later, when you got used to the system you can start using project files to fine tune you compilation needs. > Is there a test suite in ada to test the installation of the compiler? Yes, it is called the ACATS test - The test should be included in one of the source rpm of the gcc tool chain. The GNU Ada project publishes the result for the GCC releases [3].
