Does anyone out there know of a good Ada compiler for the Mac? I just found out the other day that I have to use it in a class and I would rather work on my mac than use it as a terminal for the mainframes. Please e-mail and I will summarize. -- ___________________________________________________________________________ | Joseph Wagner | Life is divided into the horrible | | jwagner@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu | and the miserable - Woody Allen | ___________________________________________________________________________

Meridian systems makes one. HOWEVER: it requires AU/X, and it runs about $3000.00 the last time I checked on it. -- ************************************************************* Andrew E. Page (Warrior Poet) | Decision and Effort Concepts Engineering | The Archer and the Arrow 105 Bromfield Rd |

I remember seeing an ADA compiler in some late ApdaLog that is an MPW C
2.0 preprocessor and thus runs under MPW without the need for AU/X. The
price though is rather steep like the Meridian. Check the latest ApdaLog.

I understand that Meridian will offer their MPW Ada compiler for the Mac at greatly reduced prices (about $200) beginning in February. This may be an "educational" only price.

Here is some additional information from comp.lang.ada: "Meridian was recently allowing students and teachers to purchase their Mac AdaVantage, which is an MPW- based system (with MPW bundled) for $200. I'd recommend calling Claudia Coleman at Meridian (800-221-2522) to get a reading from her on what the current policy is." [Someone else called Meridian and was told that the price would be $149 beginning in Feb.] Herb Poppe hpoppe@ncar.ucar.edu NCAR (303) 497-1296 1850 Table Mesa Dr. Boulder, CO 80307-3000
