Help installing GNAT 3.15p on a linux machine

Help installing GNAT 3.15p on a linux machine

[Beau Elliott]

Can anyone help me with my install of GNAT 3.15p. I downloaded the
linux version from http://libre.act-europe.fr/GNAT/

I then used:
gunzip -c gnat-3.15p-i686-pc-redhat71-gnu-bin.tar.gz | tar xf -

I then used the doconfig (using option 2) script to create the
doinstall file.

Once I did this, I ran the doinstall file and it finished.

I then wrote a hello world program to test it out,

I typed:

gcc -c hello.adb

and then I got an error saying: Ada compiler not installed on this
system.

Can anyone help me fix this problem? I know this is not necessarily a
Ada problem, but I assume some of you use linux and probably use this
compiler so maybe some of you can help me solve my problem.  I would
really like to use Ada in a linux environment. Thanks in advance!

I think I have figured out the problem... I have gcc (version
3.3.4-3tr) installed in /usr/bin

Now the option 2 in the doconfig installs everything in the /usr/gnat/
folder.  So when I type: gcc -- it uses the gcc in the /usr/bin

My question is if I choose option 3 and state to install everything in
the /usr/bin folder, will that screw everything up (say my g++
compiler)? 

Thanks guys!

You have to add /usr/gnat/bin to your $PATH.  This is explained at
the end of the installation.  As you discovered, it's easy not to
notice!

Ciao,

What distribution are you using?  There may be an easier way...

No!!!! don't do that. Install in /usr/gnat or /opt/ada or any other empty
directory.

You can use a script file to setup you path. I attached mine as example.
Note the:

if [[ (${USER} != root) && (-z ${_ada_bash_} ) ]] ; then

in the first line. The root user should use the compiler which came with
your Linux.

My setup batch is of corse more complex then needed. The realy important
lines are:

        declare -x GNAT_Path=/opt/ada

        PATH=${GNAT_Path}/bin:${PATH}
        PATH=.:${PATH}

Re: Help installing GNAT 3.15p on a linux machine

[Cephus®]

I am running TSL version 2.2

I can compile an Ada program by using:
/usr/gnat/bin/gcc -c hello.adb

but, I can't create the object program when I try this:
/usr/gnat/bin/gcc -c hello.adb
/usr/gnat/bin/gnatmake hello.adb

I get the error:
gnatbind -x hello.ali
gnatmake: error, unable to locate gnatbind

Now I have looked and gnatbind is located in the /usr/gnat/bin folder.
Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

I even try to do it the long way by doing:
/usr/gnat/bin/gcc -c hello.adb         <--works
/usr/gnat/bin/gnatbind hello            <--works
/usr/gnat/bin/gnatlink hello              <--Error

Error Message:
gcc: b~hello.adb: Ada compiler not installed on this system

Add /usr/gnat/bin to the front of your $PATH.

D.

[Ole-Hjalmar Kristensen]

You probably need to do something like the following:

setenv PATH /usr/gnat/bin:$PATH
rehash

I assume you already have another gcc on your system, and that the
error message 
"gcc: b~hello.adb: Ada compiler not installed on this system" 
is coming from that one.

BTW., gnatmake hello should be sufficient to compile and link your
program, no need to start gcc explicitly.

I allready told you:

ￜￜￜￜￜￜￜￜPATH=/usr/gnat/bin:${PATH}

But only for normal users and not for root.

I haven't read any other replies so I apologize if this is a repeat:

gcc a front end to the compilers, g++, etc.

If you haven't rebuilt gcc to include ada support, you cannot expect gcc
to compile your ada files for you. You want to use gnatmake (try typing
gnat<TAB> in your shell and you should see all possible completions)
