GNAT for linux 2005: latest release

GNAT for linux 2005: latest release

[gpriv]

Hello,

I am new to ada and more in exploration mode. I am writing the test
app. to compare ada to native code with c# (already written). It is a
server application (no GUI). One of the main attractions in using Ada
is ability to use same source code for multiple platforms. So far, the
effort was going pretty well except that I encountered 2005 issues on
linux.

It seems that  linux implementation is missing Time_zones and it fails
to compile protected type implementations of interfaces. Those are
ones that I encountered so far.  Am I using the latest release?
(4.1)   Is there more recent built out there?

Thanks in advance,

George

You can get 4.2 on Debian.

SuSE 10.3 comes with 4.2.1 :-) and I have just compiled my own 4.2.2 - mind
you it failed on the Java backend :-/ .

The 4.2 on Debian is actually 4.2.2 with all patches on the 4.2 branch
until 2007-10-23, and then some :)

Thanks, everyone for the input.  I am using Debian just to keep the
compatibility in check while do all development on XP.  I have also
noticed that GPS crashes when I am trying to open any of the source
file.  It seems that the fonts are missing?

No, it was doing under K-Desktop, on Gnome is fine.
