Hello everyone.

Despite being a newbie to Ada, I find myself having to start out in
the deep end.

Has anything improved in the area of writing DLLs in Ada that can be
accessed from Visual Basic 6?

I've tried out the code at http://www.tertullian.org/rpearse/ada_dll/ada_dll.htm#GNAT_compiling
and have proved to myself that, yes, you can call the code from C++
(but that's not because you're doing it via the DLL mechanism, but
rather via the LIB) and you can't call from VB6 (because it is trying
to use the DLL interface rather than the LIB one).

Is there any point in upgrading to gcc 4?

uname -a --> MINGW32_NT-5.1 XI 1.0.10(0.46/3/2) 2004-03-15 07:17 i686
unknown

Kind regards,
Bruce.
