[comp.lang.ada] Evaluation of Telesoft and Verdix compilers wanted

len@geac.UUCP (Leonard Vanek) (01/06/87)

Now that the Telesoft Telegen 2 Ada compiler has been on the
market for a while I would like to hear how happy its users are
with it. My company will soon be making a decision to purchase an
Ada compiler and I have heard generally poor reports about the
ability of existing compilers to handle the more esoteric
features of Ada in a robust manner. Since Telegen 2 is a complete
rewrite of Telesoft's original compiler (which I have heard was
not so good) it is probably a considerable improvement. Can any
users of the Telegen 2 system confirm this suspicion?

I would also appreciate comments on the current version of the
Verdix compiler.

If responses are mailed to me I will post a summary of the
results.
