No, I don't have any up-to-date comparisons, that was four projects ago. We ended up using a different compiler because, at the time, Tartan didn't have all the functionality that we needed. We're using Aonix ObjectAda on Windows NT for our current project because it fits our needs (similarity to MS Visual tools, decent price, decent GUI Builder, decent performance, etc). It would be better to contact Tartan (or DDC-I, if that's who owns them now) to see if they have any current benchmark data. > Are there benches to graphical libraries? (Are there > graphical libraries?) We wrote our own. It was a small application to simulate the type of plotting we would be doing. We let the vendors compile it and run it on each of their platforms with their Ada compilers, with and without suppressing range checking. Frank
