I tried asking their tech support this, but they told me all the engineers are
"going to a function" today.

I'm looking for information on what optimizations ObjectAda (on PC/WinNT) can
perform. The only parameters their compiler and IDE provide are for turning
off checks (which are my least favorite optimization). There's nothing about
register optimization, loop unrolling, hoisting, etc.

I can't find anything about it in their printed documentation. Their online
help has three references; two for turning off checks and one reference to
annex M where they state that they ignore "pragma optimize".

Since I have never got an "optimized away" message from their debugger, I
figured no optimization was being performed. But surely ObjectAda can do
optimizations, right? Right???

T.E.D.
