GNAT for WinNT

GNAT for WinNT

[asgida]

Hi, I've only just started to use GNAT on WinNT and I am having problems with
the gnatlink - there is no output file. The following is a listing:
"F:\IATP>gnatlink -v -v ranger.ali inet_routines.o

That's a new one on me.

Out of curiosity, why are you using gnatlink? I typically use
"gnatmake", and it handles all the compiling and linking details. If
there are extra object files you need linked in, you can pass them as
parameters to gnatmake (with the appropriate flags).

I am using gnatmake, but the problem seems to be with the final step
i.e. gnatlink.
Are there any flags to generate more details?
I am already using -v -v.

The .o and .ali files exists, there are no error messages and no
ranger.exe.

I have since gone back to gnat3.12p - it installed AND created the .exe.
Maybe my gnat3.13p tar file was corrupted.
Many thanks for all who responded.

Well as you must understand this is a configuration problem or
misunderstanding as many of us are using GNAT under Windows NT.

What do you mean exactly by "there is no output file" ? Does that means
that "ranger.exe" is not created ?

Does the .o and .ali are created ?

Pascal.

That sounds like a bug to me.  I'd suggest you report it to report@gnat.com.

Sunday night I tried installing GNAT for Win98 but couldn't
even get it installed!!  Grrrr.  The stupid install program
only lets you install to drive C:.  I use that partition as
a dedicated 2 gig win-98 OS-stuff-only drive.  So it's very
low on disk space.  Applications and development tools are 
installed on separate partitions (with gobs of space), but 
the GNAT installer wouldn't let me pick a different drive, 
let alone a user-specified folder.  So I immediately shift-
deleted it.  :)

No problem I think - I'll just boot into mandrake linux and
install the Linux GNAT.  Too bad my netif services are broken
and GRUB bootloader won't boot my Win98 drive.

Guess I'm hooped until I get a working Linux install. 

Best of Luck man....

Hi,

I had the same problem,

Try doing a "Typical Install" ... I think it is,
it allows you to change drive and folder.

The "Custom" option doesn't let you change drive / folder before it checks
for
available HD space, which means if you don't have enough HD space in the
default C
drive you can't install using the custom option.

>The stupid install program only lets you install to drive C:.
  On Win95 you can install to other than C:, although it requires
a bunch of space on C: *during* the install.  (And when it says
it needs xxx more, it really needs a lot more than that.)
