As far as I know, Ada language support has always just been limited to the case where CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE was not set. > What would it take to handle this?

Hi Tom: Ada language support was written by me many years ago based on the unsophisticated C and C++ language support available then for CMake. So I strongly suspect what has to be done now to get language support capabilities for Ada that are comparable to modern C/C++ capabilities (e.g., full support for setting CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE) is to rewrite the Ada language support based on the Modern C/C++ language support. This is a non-trivial project since CMake language support is so badly documented that developers who like to expand it to other languages such as Ada must try a long series of essentially reverse-engineering experiments to figure out what to do. So modernizing CMake language support for Ada is on my agenda but likely not in the near future because of all the work involved. For now, can you avoid the problem by simply disabling Ada (using -DENABLE_ada=OFF) or do you really need access to the combination of Ada and Qt? For example, can you debug the Qt case for some other language binding, e.g., C++? Alan __________________________ Alan W.
