Message-ID: <MPG.19769c1aa044860498969d@news.ip-plus.net> (raw)
I've published version 4.0 of AdaBrowse. It's available at
the URL
http://home.tiscalinet.ch/t_wolf/tw/ada95/adabrowse/
in source form and as pre-built executables for Win NT/2k
and GNAT 3.15p as well as GNAT 3.16a. AdaBrowse is distributed
under the terms of the GPL.
AdaBrowse 4.0 is a major step forward from the last announced
release 3.0 from Aug 2002 (or even from the last published version
3.4.2 from June 2003).
New features:
1. User-defineable indices. You can define what kinds of items
shall go into any index using expressions of boolean queries
like e.g. "(type or subtype) and not (task or protected or
controlled)", which would produce an index of all types and
subtypes that are not task or protected or controlled types,
or "constant and not incomplete", which would produce an index
of all constants and named numbers, but not include deferred
constants.
There may be any number of indices, each with its own expression,
file name, and title.
2. GNAT project manager integration. AdaBrowse 4.0 can work with
GNAT project files; it now also has a -P command line option.
This simplifies using AdaBrowse considerably if you are using
project files already.
Using project files, AdaBrowse now also fully support arbitrary
naming conventions as defined in the project file.
The pre-built executables do have project manager support. If you're
building from the sources, you'll need to have the GNAT sources,
otherwise the Makefile will build an AdaBrowse without project
manager support.
3. The XML output now also contains the indices. The DTD has been
changed accordingly; it's now at V2.0.
Please read the User's Guide on how to work with these new features!
AdaBrowse 4.0 has passed all my regression tests. If you still find
bugs, please report them to the address given in the User's Guide
in the distribution.
