But one of the whole marks of Ada is that it is so much a standardized
language that one could compile Ada code with any conforming Ada compiler
and this should never cause a problem?
If this was say C or C++ code full of #ifdefs and each C compiler having its
own set of a million different compiler switches I would understand, but Ada
code? So I am just curious why would it be hard to "switch" Ada compilers?
