We've never pushed any Pro versi= on to FSF-GNAT, and there has never been any guarantee of correspondence be= tween GNAT Pro and FSF-GNAT, so what you are demanding today for ASIS is un= reasonable and unnecessary. So assuming you are asking instead for some FSF version "close to asis-gcc"= , this version is available in the GCC 10.x branch, and similarly to asis-g= cc which is on a long term, low changes branch at AdaCore, GCC 10.x is in t= he same state today. If you want an executable called "asis-gcc" then make = a symbolic link from gcc (10.x) to asis-gcc and you have it. > But this means that users of ASIS will be stuck to GCC 10.x, or will=20 > have to handle two versions of gcc at the same time, which is an endless= =20 > source of burden. The same is true for Pro users, no difference here: Pro users need to use G= NAT x to compile, and ASIS-GCC y to generate trees. So what you are complai= ning about isn't different between Pro and community users, and making asis= -gcc Pro available won't change that. So to recap: you are asking for a Community version of "asis-gcc Pro": this= version is available, it's GCC 10.x (10.3 being the latest available to da= te). And yes, it's a different version to generate trees than to compile Ad= a: the same is true for Pro users and they do not have specific issues with= that. Arno
