Re: link errors with GNAT GPL 2016 and gprof

[gautier_niouzes@hotmail.com]

In this case, extending the zipada.gpr example, the following is working on GPL 2017 (with some luck, on 2016 or earlier too) :

zzz.gpr :
----
with "zipada";

project ZZZ is

   for Main use ("zzz.adb");
   for Source_Dirs use ("zzz");
   for Exec_Dir use ".";

   package Ide      renames ZipAda.Ide;
   package Builder  renames ZipAda.Builder;
   package Compiler renames ZipAda.Compiler;
   package Binder   renames ZipAda.Binder;
   package Linker   renames ZipAda.Linker;

end ZZZ;
----
New directory "zzz", and a copy of tools/zipada.adb as zzz/zzz.adb.
Then:
  gprbuild -P ZZZ -XBuild_Mode=Profiling
Testing the executable:
  zzz gpr *.gpr
(creates a Zip file gpr.zip, plus gmon.out)
Run the profiler:
  gprof zzz.exe >zzz.log
(creates zzz.log with profiling report)
