Is it correct to interpret this as: "PolyORB does not yet implement the DSA, because this requires compiler support which is not yet available in GNAT"? Or is there a release of GNAT that does provide the necessary support? >> Is anyone aware of a binary distribution of PolyORB? > > You will find here some (really old) rpms of PolyORB 1.0p > > http://www.prz.rzeszow.pl/ada/en/GNAT-3.15p_rpms_EN.html > > I do not know any binary distribution of PolyORB, except this one. This collection of RPMs is truly amazing. I'd never heard of it before. This web site will now be flooded with downloads. Oleksandr, if you read this: hats off to you! I notice, in passing, that he also chose GNAT 3.15p as the common compiler for all packages, even PolyORB. > The mailing list may provide more information on > building POlyORB if you contemplate packaging it. I did consider packaging it but decided not to. PolyORB is "generic middleware" that needs to be "instanciated", and this is scary to me; I would feel compelled to provide binaries for all possible instanciations :) Also I do not have the time to maintain more packages than I already do. -- Ludovic Brenta.
