Problem with adagide !

Problem with adagide !

[Papastefanos Serafeim]

When I try to compile a program with adagide, I get an
error saying that an ada compiler is not installed in the
system, while gnat IS installed in my system and its bin
directory is in my path.

I did some tests, and come to the conclusion that the
problem is created because i also have mingw installed
and in the path, so when adagide executes gcc it finds
mingw's gcc and not gnat's gcc ! Is there a possible
solution to that ? I'd like to have both mingw and gnat
in the path.

I don't know whether my gnatfe (http://www.pushface/org/gnatfe) will
help on a mingw system. It works, with varying degrees of success (eg,
not GNAT 5.02a1) under cygwin. Cygwin is fine for a single user, it's
not been fun getting a larger group all to use the same,
consistently-installed, version ..

Well, I could do that but then I'd have problems with mingw !

Anyway, a solution I found is to create an adagide.bat with the
statements

set path = c:\gnat\bin
adagide.exe

in the adagide's directory and make a shortcut to it in my start
menu programs.

The link you gave me is not working, but either way I
don't want to use Cygwin.

urgh, my mistake .. http://www.pushface.org/gnatfe
What I meant to imply was that it _might_ work with mingw.
