There won't be any cartography involved but visualy i= t will be something similar to the compass app. It is a small development, = so I cannot afford expensive tool support. To do that, I would love to use = Ada : - Is it possible to have an Ada compiler for iOS ?=A0I have read somewhere = that GNAT=A0had been ported to ARM. Even AdaCore is proposing a free bare b= oard ARM=A0cross compiler. But to use GNAT on iOS is still challenging. Is = it possible to build a simple library, just for computing GPS data ? Is it = possible to have tasking (I need at least to tasks : on for user interactio= n and the other for computation) ? - Is it possible to use GNOGA for drawing instruments, like a compass, on a= n iPad screen ? Or do I have to resign to do my development in Swift.... Kind regards, Vincent
