Library Browser and Emacs

Library Browser and Emacs

[Pat]

Hi,

does anyone know if there is an emacs script around, which lets you
browse your Ada source code based on package names instead of
filenames? I am looking for something similar as the "Ada Source
Library Browser" (see sf.net), but integrated into emacs.

Thanks, Pat

I'm not sure I understand. Does Ada mode for Emacs (from libre.act-europe.fr)
stop working if used with file names using a convention different
from GNAT's?  Gnatchop-ping should help.

Out of curiosity why emacs?

Is it because this appears "dead".

I am the original author of alibrowse (alibrowse.sourceforge.net) but have
negelected it. I personally have an interest - if there is enough interest
in the community I would love to revive it and enhance it. (I went the route
of VB for the GUI for the next generation but never released it).

Depends on exactly what you mean by "browse".

Emacs Ada mode provides several browsing functions (goto declaration
of name under point, goto spec/body, goto parent, etc).

Alternately, just make your file names reflect your package names (the
default naming convention of GNAT does this). What compiler are you
using, and what file naming convention?

Haven't used this, don't see a good description of it there.
