Re: How do I get rid of DOS window for Ada95 windoze programs...

["Marin David Condic" <mcondic.auntie.spam@acm.org>]

Try putting this in the declarative region of your main program:

pragma Linker_Options ("-mwindows") ;

You can do something similar from the command line. There should be a
section of the Gnat User's Guide (or other documentation that came with it -
don't have it in front of me to check) that talks specifically about
building apps and dlls for Windows. Also, you can find lots of other
interesting pragmas along the way, so it will pay you to spend a little time
traipsing through it.
