I use omake (from the Mojave project) to build my Ada stuff, so it is 
doable. Just read chapter 2 (The GNAT Compilation Model) of the GNAT User's 
Guide. This should tell you all you need to compile your Ada sources with 
any build tool you want. The reason for using omake? Well, it's not GNU 
make, thus it comes with dependency tracking, build command checksumming, 
built-in build cache, background execution with source file monitoring, etc.
