Re: File rename in Ada95

[anon@anon.org (anon)]

Ludovic Brenta, Until you and your team of Ada supporters at least get 
"Polyorb" and/or GLADE up and running under the latest GNAT/gcc. You 
should bypass reading this forum. And the fix to those packages are easy.

And as for Duff. If he re-read the initial post of this thread Duff would see 
that Maciej Sobczak stated his version of Ada does not have Ada.Directories 
which make Duff post a foolish post or may be Robert Duff need to update his 
glasses so he can read the post!  Because this is not the first post that Duff 
has assume that all GNAT users are using the latest GNAT version. There 
are some that still ask questions that deals with Ada 95 only systems, like 
DOS users to name one type.  Also some users want to follow the strict 
guidelines of the RM and not add vendors extensions to the RM or mix Ada 
specs.

And as for Simon, that comment has been there in every version of GNAT 
from 2005 though 2008. And until 2008 version, when Adacore finally 
removed the "pragma Ada_05;" statement that comment was meanless. 
And if you check most packages of GNAT you will find a lot of meanless 
comments.

Also, downloaded and check Nov 1, 2008.
    gnat-gpl-2007-src.tgz -- has the "pragma Ada_05;"
    gnat-gpl-2008-src.tgz -- the "pragma Ada_05;" has been removed.

And just like some people are still using XP there are people who are still 
using GNAT-GPL-2007 or using GNAT-3.15.  One reason is Annex E. So, 
do not assume that all GNAT users are using GNAT 2008, and this goes 
duuble, especially when they say "Ada95" in the title.
