Well, the reason I came to this conclusion is that --
- Alsys decided not to go with a Mac compiler
- Verdix only had the Mac compiler because they bought out
Meridian. When Rational bought them out, guess what, no
Mac compiler.
I have talked to Meridian representatives before. Its hard to
have talked to very many compiler companies about Mac Ada
simply because there aren't any!
Perhaps the advent of the Power PC and the upcoming educational
Mac compilers will change this. I hope so. However, since the
only remaining commercial compiler for the Mac OS is now defunct,
and since I haven't heard any rumors of another one to take its
place, I still feel that the chances of getting a commercial Mac
compiler are pretty slim.
Anybody know if the Power PC will run software for Windows NT?
