The DEC VAX Ada compiler (version 1.5) documents two different limits for how many program units can be in an executable program. The LRM Appendix F says 1000, while the Technical Summary says 4095 (with a subordinate limit of 1023 for the transitive closure of with clauses for any one unit). Does anyone know which of these limits is accurate? The 1000 limit is pretty low for real-life use. Does anyone know of a workaround for it, other than linking separate images and spawning between them (which would seem to be slow)? Does anyone have a feeling for whether DEC intends to relax the limit in a future release? Thanks for any info.... Jonathan Schilling !uunet!actnyc!jls
