ARM and gnat-glade (the distributed Annex)

Does any one if this is being ported to ARM or (even better) can you mix up arm and intel partitions?

Since Annex E is only intended for homogeneous partitions (that is, all 
partitions running on the same processor and target OS), it doesn't make 
sense to "mix up ARM and Intel partitions".

Specifically, see paragraph 6 in the introduction to Annex E. Since this is 
a "permission", an implementation could try to support a mixed system, but 
it would only work if all targets use the same mapping of object 
representations (that is, size of integers, mapping of components, and so 
on). That's likely to be pretty limiting on the implementation for each 
target.

You might try taking a look at PolyORB, which is intended to
deal with this kind of situation.

Thanks for your replies. I've settled now on using Dmitrys Kazanovs components connections librarys with the GNATCOLL JSON librarys;
