There is just gnat 3.15 ada compiler in ports currently. So it need to build it DIY for one who want GNAT 3.4.2 on FreeBSD. The reason of that is GNAT 3.4.2 has "a lot of nice new features". :) http://www.ada.krischik.com/gnat-3_4_2.html So, Firstly, to download GCC with ada packages, to install gnat3.15 from ports. <b>USING ADAGCC</b> as the host compiler, Adagcc is including in gnat3.15p, and then just following the INSTALL/build.html to build your GNAT 3.4.2 on FreeBSD. and then you can use the new ada compiler on Freebsd to recompiler your second version ada compiler if you like. :-) Because the configure script of gcc3.4.2 can't detect any ada compiler (gnat3.15) on BSD, that's why it need to use adagcc as the host compile. I think the best way is to change the configure script. cheers. -- Tommy Zhu <tommy@cnluton.com>
