Linking Ada with large Assembler libs?
The Machine Code Insertions sections of the relevant reference manuals have been informative. However, I'm linking my Ada code with pre-existing libs written in Assembler. The GNAT manuals are a little sketchy on how to do this properly. I'm using NASM and FASM Assembler code. Most of the Assembler code deals pr... 8 Mar 2007 04:19

Ada.Command_Line and wildcards
Hello! I was surprised to see Ada.Command_Line in GNAT (3.15p and 2006 GPL) serving the command-line argument "*.adb" indeed as N arguments, the list of files with an "adb" extension!

RSS/Atom reader?
Has anybody tried to write a (minimal) RSS/Atom reader in Ada? It is my impression that it should be relatively easy to do with XML/Ada, but I would like to hear about other's experiences. Greetings, Jacob -- A: Yes. Q: Are you sure? A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. Q: Why i... 21 Feb 2007 05:13
