operating support (ada95 - objectada)

[neil]

Well, does objectada (ada95) run on Windows2000 Pro?  It's just I
don't wanna download a 80mb file on my 56k unless I'm sure it'll work
:)

I was told by someone it only runs on Win9X and maybe XP
Thanks for any replies..

You were misinformed.  It runs on NT and W2k as well.

Thanks guys, just a couple more questions:

Say if I downloaded the latest version of objectada and my college had
a older one, would they conflict or be okay?

Where can I get the latest release of objectada?

Any decent tutorial or websites referring to ada95?

Thanks again,
Neil.

I think you can install them side by side; depends on whether they use
the registry intelligently (I'm assuming Windows here).

What IQ are you assuming for "intelligently" ?

When installed, OA lists itself as the app to open
for any .ads or .adb files.  If another program
(such as GNAT) is already registered for that, it
silently takes them away from that program.

This can make for odd behavior in the other program.

Disclaimer: I observed this behavior two years ago.
It may be better now.  It _should_ prompt the user
whether or not to do the override.  If you override,
and then run uninstall of the other, you could delete
files needed for OA (or vice versa).

Not likely. The demo version that you can download is quite old. :-)

http://www.aonix.com/content/products/forms/oa_win_dnld.html is where 
you can go to get the OA demo (or "Spcial Edition"). It is nowhere near 
the "latest version" though. For that, you'll have to send some dough to 
Aonix.
