<<Do anybody know of an Ada compiler for S/390? I know of LegacyAda, but don't
know whether it moves towards Ada 95.

It is just that I suggested that some software could be written in Ada instead
of C++ or Java. The other party claimed that there were no Ada compiler
available for S/390. I knew of OC Systems, but wonder if there are any other
suppliers.

There were several Ada 83 compilers for the IBM mainframes, including
Alsys, Intermetrics, Telesoft, and Systeam. I think only the old Telesoft
compiler, now maintained by OCS is still available.

As far as I know, no one is doing work towards an Ada 95 compiler on the
IBM mainframe. Proabbly the easiest path would be a GNAT port, since there
is a GCC for this system.

Anyway, i suggest you contact OCS to follow this up.
