Subject: Ada Compiler for Educational Use
Date: 12 May 88 16:44:03 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8805121644.AA02786@june.cs.washington.edu> (raw)
I have been teaching the CS-1 and CS-2 courses here at the University of
Washington in Modula-2 for the past 4 years. I am now strongly considering
teaching Ada in these classes. I would like to solicit recommendations for
compilers: we use a large VAX/VMS for instruction, but will also ultimately
need compilers for our own department's machines (mostly VAX/ULTRIX and Suns).
I am looking for a system with short compile times and good error diagnostics;
fast run times are not as important. We typically have 20-40 students logged
on at once. Also, I am interested in other language related tools, such as
language sensitive editors, debuggers, and profilers. I hope to direct the
Computer Center while it examines a few compilers early in the summer, and
then choose one for use this Fall. I'd appreciate any relevant comments.
