Hi all,
Having looked at the Alioth benchmarks I'm looking into Ada as an alternative to C++ but I'm totally confused by the licensing.
It seems like there's two entities GNU and ADACore both offering the a compiler/runtime but with different restrictions so please excuse these simple questions:
- How are the two products different? Are they just the same codebase with different support models?
- Can I develop commercial closed-source libraries and software using the GNU version of GNAT?
- Will there be compatibility issues between GNU GNAT and Adacore GNAT beyond missing Ada 2012 features?
- Is AdaCore the only company working on GNAT right now?
- Are there performance differences between the two compilers?
Thanks!
