Gnade win32 binaries??

Gnade win32 binaries??

[Jano]

Hello all. I'm looking at sourceforge for win32 binaries ready to 
install but it seems they don't exist.

I'm forced to build from sources? Or can I find them in another place?

TIA,

Correct. GNADE has only recently begun supplying binary packages for
Linux, and we have not discussed binary packages for Windows.

Since there is no standard packaging scheme for Windows, it's not
clear how to distribute a binary.

What are you expecting? Maybe I can provide it easily.

That's not hard; just type 'make' in the Win32 directory.

Mmm... I'm wondering. I have an old 1.1.5 executable that installs 
GNADE, and even creates start menu entries for docs, uninstall and 
rebuilding of the libadaodbc.a. That's the reason why I was searching 
for an actualized version.

I presume it's made by another person?

Seems pretty easy :-) From reading the docs I had the idea I was in need 
of gmake. Are you refering to the make that comes with gnat? If it's 
this easy, really it's enough for me. I'll give a try.

Many thanks,

Yes, gnade for Win32 used to be maintained by someone else.

If you find that in the current distribution, it's a bug; submit a bug
report.

'gmake' seems to be a common name for 'Gnu make', which is what comes
with GNAT and Cygwin.

Yes.

If you need more help, email me off list: stephen_leake@acm.org. Let
me know how it goes, either way.

On my box (Linux) make and gmake are identicial but with different
behaviour. Specically the  make clean does not work correctly with
make.

The Makefiles for Windows are using GNU Make features. There for
i gues you will need this on windows as well.

I would prefere if you could use the gnade mailing list:

gnade-develop@lists.sourceforge.net
