I fully agree with you. This is why I've created AIDE. For the Windows path, all your needs may be found in it (mingw based for real windows usefullness). AIDE obviously must be improve in many ways, (help welcome). English manual is underway but the whole is already tested and usable. ... AIDE is definitly not like that : simple directories hierarchy, emacs/glide ( preferred) or gps or console based (with the simpler fte editor) : no special requirements or imposed softwares. You can also reproduce the AIDE environment... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 1:21 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/9dabd984ea966de9 matt parker instigates hackers and other criminals against clients and competitors - all new ---------------------------------- download the free insult generator http://tinyurl.com/4vj4g and tell matt parker off ... alias [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias eric_van_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias von lunsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias geronimo [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias c v [EMAIL PROTECTED] cheaters matt ... erik_van_lint_herzog@ yahoo.com matt parker alias erik [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias eric van lint [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias e [EMAIL PROTECTED] matt parker alias erik... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 2:19 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/ae6d9b892346cf8 Parameter return when exceptions occur - 3 new ---------------------------------- ... This is only true if this is a pass-by-copy type (scalar, etc). If the type is pass-by-reference (tagged, etc), then yes, you can depend on the values "returned" by the subprogram, even when there's an exception. (In fact, the AI-302 containers depend on this behavior.) ... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 6: 47 am 3 messages, 3 authors http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/2c4ffb461d487342 How to install GNatCom and GWindows - missing Tom.ads file?? - 4 new ---------------------------------- Hi, I'm trying to install GWindows, but the output as shown below is displayed in the console. Apparently something about a "tom.tlb" file and another named "tom.ads" ... no such files seem to be on my entire hard drive ... Searching in Google, I only found the advice to add the Gnatcom\Tools directory to my PATH, but I still get the same result. (Also, when trying to compile the samples shipped with gnatcom, for several files I get an error telling me that "ie.ads" was not found - I don't have a file named... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 6:52 am 4 messages, 2 authors http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/dcb3478e1142ed22 Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) Ada Algorithm - all new ---------------------------------- ... Well, it wasn't I who did the making. But I'll offer the "conventional" explanation: application writers are wise to select specific types to represent the numeric quantities, and the generic formal in such packages as "generic_real_arrays" is instantiated to reflect those application-specific types. <...> I developed a ... I'm not sure I followed that claim; you might consider posting an example (folks here are pretty constructive, so you won't get pilloried :) However when I read "generic package provides... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 10:01 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/4246083efae0e43b Ada 200X - all new ---------------------------------- ...

At last! An answer to a long-standing annoyance I found with the language. .. how to put the full type declarations (implementations) into the package body, where they belong! I had thought it was meant to be possible, but had never seen exactly how. (presumably this one way to get physical isolation between different components in a large system, so changes to data types don't trigger recompilation of everything) time to tidy up some old code of mine... Thanks for pointing this out, guys!... - Sun, Oct 31 2004 4:40 pm 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/8dc50f1b24590126 Why these "Drop" parameters? - all new ---------------------------------- ...

Well, in many languages (not just C) you can just assign an integer (or fixed-point) value to floating-point and vice versa, but I sure wouldn't say that either "is" the other. And you can't assign C pointer to integer without conversion; it violates a constraint. (Or pass as parameter or return as value, since in C those are always semantically equivalent to assignment.) You can write the conversion to any integer type explicitly with a... - Mon, Nov 1 2004 12: 14 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/61006929d3e14455 ======================================================================= You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "comp.lang.ada". comp.lang.ada http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada Change your subscription type & other preferences: * click http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/subscribe Report abuse: * send email explaining the problem to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: * click http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/subscribe ======================================================================= Google Groups: http://groups-beta.google.com
