This talk about what comes with GNAT, prompts me to tell this anecdote.
In the previous semseter we gave an exercise to output the "with-graph" of
an Ada system (start with the "main",follow the "with"s. Nothing too
fancy. This was explained in the exerices text).
Of course, students said that this is hard to do, requires them to wirte
a parser for Ada (I wanted a line count of all files traversed...) etc.
etc.
No one said "Hey the ALI files have this info," not to mention find out
about the XREF reports the gnat tools give you.
(The exercise wasn't mandatory, so no one did it... So I don't have any
nice Ada parsers to share)
