I would like to know about Ada compilers for HP 9000/840 running HP-UX, and for 386 unix boxes, (ibm ps/2-70). Please tell me about the compilers you know of. thanks ############################################################################### # # # # Kjartan R.

I am seeking some information on validated Ada compilers for use on any of the following computers: Commodore Amiga Apple MacIntosh SGI Iris 4D Series Sun MicroSystems (preferrably under SunOS3.4 or higher) In particular, does such a compiler exist and, if so, what are the hardware/software requirements for it ? Also, does it have a good working environment ? Any helpful experience you could pass on would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sincerely, kelvin edwards

I, too, am seeking information on validate ADA compilers. The machine I am interested in is a 386 under Everex Unix (will run Interactive binaries also). Does anyone have any info? Thankx Robert Cousins Speaking for myself alone.

From schmidt@zola.ics.uci.edu (Doug Schmidt): >> Fortunately, compiler >> technology is now capable of delivering tight, efficient Ada >> object code, better than that being produced by C compilers. > > 1. Precisely which Ada compilers produce better code than > which C compilers? Not all compilers are created equal... The Telesoft TeleGen2 compiler, vs. all available C compilers, as of circa October 1988; contact Telesoft for details, since the statement was made at the Telesoft User's Group meeting at the Tri-Ada '88 conference. > 2.

I seem to recall "Dhrystone", among others, being cited. There were no limitations on the use of the Ada language. > 3.

I think the comparison might have focused on Sun workstations, but I'm by no means positive. In any event, the point of contact is: TeleSoft, 5959 Cornerstone Court West, San Diego, CA, 92121-9891 There were several articles in the Proceedings of Tri-Ada '88 which considered at length the sophisticated optimization techniques which went into the TeleGen2 compiler; that might also be a good source. There has been a new release of the TeleGen2 compiler since October 1988, and undoubtedly new releases of C compilers as well, so it would probably be best to contact TeleSoft directly at the above address for the most recent competitive statistics.

Anyone know of any ADA compilers for a PC and/or SUN workstations???
(any ADA interpreters available?)
Please reply to: OSTLUND@SRC.Honeywell.com
Thanks in advance, John.dsalter@BCGUNT.AF.MIL (douglassalter@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu,) (04/19/91)
Could you please sent a list of validated ADA compilers to dsalter@BCGUNT.AF.MIL - DDN address 26.7.0.13. We are especially interested any WANG ADA compilers.
