Eclipse Plug-In

Eclipse Plug-In

[Fifth Horseman]

Time to revive the Ada plug-in for Eclipse discussion.  I haven't seen any 
posts more recent than a year ago, so I am about to get started on trying to 
create my own solution.

If anyone has a working (or partially-working) solution they're willing to 
share, I'd love to see it.  I don't have any prior experience writing 
Eclipse plug-ins, so I might be getting in over my head, but we'll see how 
successful I am.

Well, Aonix made one and in the small print they say it even supports GNAT.

My recollection, though, is that it is a bit pricey for the one-man-shop, 
either $995 or $1995, I can't remember which...

Yes, AonixADT (Ada Development Toolkit) is an Ada development plugin for 
Eclipse. It supports ObjectAda as well as GNAT (and not just in small print 
:-). ADT currently runs under MS Windows, Intel Linux and Sparc Solaris 
environments.

We will very shortly be releasing the latest version which will be freely 
available, so stay tuned.

Very nice, Tom.  Good to hear you're still around the Ada community,
too.

Unless you're talking about Eclipse running in a Windows emulator on the 
mac, then I'm afraid the answer is no. While AonixADT is of course written 
mostly in Java, there are some bits that are system dependant, including 
prebuilt executables.

Thats to bad.

I don't suppose you would let someone port those bits if they sign an
NDA??

The CDT group (C/C++ developers toolkit) seemed interested and eager to 
help anyone interested in exending that toolkit to support Ada though 
there really has not been any mail list traffic about that in about a year.


It is not clear to me that adding on top of CDT is the quickest/best 
choice. it may be faster to do something more direct and limited but it 
is worth a look.

Other are correct that there exists non-publically available eclipse 
plugins. (Aonix and DDCI and to some exent AdaCore).

Another thought for a starting point is that there are several colorizer 
plugins for eclipse that are Ada aware. That is obvious a far cry from 
real Eclipse integration.

AdaCore just announced GNATbench, a plug-in for Eclipse fully
supporting GNAT.

It will probably make it into a public release sometime.
