I am looking for an Ada compiler to run on my Microport Unix System V.3 386 box. I would gladly accept any recommendations regarding where I can obtain a good and/or cheap implementation for this configuration. I would also welcome any pros/cons you know about. I am considering trying to run Meridian AdaVantage under DOS MERGE, but this is not likely to work very well (especially for tasking), and anyway, I want to develop software for Unix, not MS-DOS. I will post a summary if demand indicates; otherwise, I will respond via e-mail to requests for summaries. Thanks, uunet!weyrich!orville

I would The November validated compiler list shows 386/Unix systems from RR (SCO Xenix, Interactive Unix 2.1, SCO Unix 3.2), TeleSoft (AIX, MultibusI Unix, Interactive Unix), Meridian (Xenix 2.3.2). I am entirely unfamiliar with the various 386 Unix ports, so can't comment on the compatibility issues here. But it's a starting point. It's a safe bet that if you can get an Ada for this configuration it'll come from one of the above 3 companies. Also several have done Sun/386 versions - add Verdix to the list for this. Good luck!
