Found lua-ada at http://ur1.ca/822y4, wondering if anyone’s using it?
I believe caracal of #ada IRC fame tinkered a bit with it a while ago.I think it was for a game caracal wanted this.Lua is often used for clientside scripting, especially in games. With Lua you can let the users script their own interfaces and such.2011-12-07T13:30:56+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Marc C, Ada programming language, Public

http://ur1.ca/5me3x - trying to understand this !Ada bug but GNAT is very hairy. Why can't gdb see variables? ('not found in this scope')Maybe I should start around exp_ch3.adb:6490 (I hope none of us would have 9000-line source files in our projects)2011-11-03T23:27:59+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public

Can't use GNAT GPL 2011 to build FSF GCC 4.6.* on Mac OS X Lion; the !Ada gnatbind doesn't accept the -C flag to generate a C main.2011-09-08T19:45:25+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public
A note on building GCC with !Ada on Mac OS X at http://goo.gl/scDwm - blogspot.com isn't ideal if you have to quote lots of code, though.2011-08-30T10:19:24+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public
!Ada's controlled types take some getting used to; glad I don't have to use C++0x's version, see http://goo.gl/EdujG (may have to sign up)2011-08-10T19:02:37+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public

ASIS for !Ada from GNAT GPL 2011 builds fine with that compiler, so does my ASIS2XML (http://goo.gl/OvyTu). I wonder what I've missed?2011-07-10T21:48:33+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public
Spent ages trying to build ASIS for !Ada in GCC 4.6.0, and then using it. No luck, will have to stick with GNAT GPL.2011-07-09T19:28:07+00:00 in Southsea, England, United Kingdom To: Ada programming language, Public
