This is a compiler supplied by Cygnus and compiles C/C++ to a MIPS embedded processor. I would like to install the GNAT compiler for the WinNT/PC platform as well. However, I really hesitate since I fear there will be Registry changes or collisions on directories or search paths or similar problems that will kill my Cygnus gcc installation. I could find this out the hard way - install GNAT and see what broke - or I could try the easy way first. Has anybody done anything similar to this? Is there an easy way to have both compilers resident on the same machine and not turn my life into a living hell for the next week or two?
