Does anyone know what happened to the Alsys OS/2 Ada compiler (& toolset)
after Alsys folded? I know the Win NT & Unix versions got picked up by
Aonix but I have never seen any mention of the OS/2 version on their
website. I wrote several Ada programs for OS/2 that are still in use but
the current version of OS/2 (V4.5 convenience pack) crashes when running any
of these programs. I dug out a copy of the compiler and it will not run at
all - not the install program, the compiler or any of my old ada
executables - not even the "Hello world" one liner. Obviously there is a
major mismatch somewhere - perhaps in the system dlls.
Ok - I know OS/2 is dead but some are still running it and my client is one.
Our copies of the compiler are V5.5 circa 1995. I had heard there was a
later version 5.6 maybe.
Is anyone still using this compiler? Was there a later version? TIA
Paul
