GNAT had been chosen no need to change that. It means that it has been implemented for GNAT and not part of the standard. That's why it is not under Ada. > (Other GNAT.* packages really are GNAT specific in that > they use implementation defined attributes, for example, > and cannot be compiled with other Ada compilers.) Many GNAT.* packages are not GNAT specific, or if they are it is probably easy to fix I think. AFAIR it was quite easy when I did that for AWS.
