Benefits of PTC ObjectAda Native Compilers PTC ObjectAda for Windows, flagship of the PTC ObjectAda product family, is one of the most popular Ada environments of all time, providing a large array of specialized tools to meet the expectations of serious engineers of large-scale projects and the most demanding mission-critical applications. Adacompilersource.py- Contains the lexer and parser phase of our compiler globalitems.py - Contains global variables and structures used mainscript.py - Main script file that runs and compiles the 'Ada file' and generates the three address code. All three Ada 95 compilers conform to the ACVC 2.0 and 2.0.1 standards. Claw is a thick Ada 95 binding to the Microsoft Win 32 API, allowing real Ada 95 programming for Windows NT/95. The product is portable to the Aonix ObjectAda, GNAT, and DDC-I Ada 95 compilers.

The DeveloperMagic ProDev Ada 95 has been released by Silicon Graphics.The Silicon Graphics Ada 95 development environment integrates theflexibility of a true object-oriented programming language and thespeed of a next-generation development tool set with multi-processorpower, an open architecture and the modular structure of Ada 95.Tartan, Inc., acquired by Texas Instruments in May 1996, see below
Tartan, Inc. develops, markets, and supports optimizing cross-compilation systems and related software tools for developers of real-time, embedded applications. Tartan's products are anchored in its highly developed optimization technology, its particular expertise in runtime development, and its debugging technology--all directed at producing fast, small, reliable object code, the principal requirements for real-time embedded applications.Ada Compiler
Tartan has recently released the first commercially available Ada development systems for embedded processors that incorporate features of the Ada 95 language revision. These capabilities include the protected type, hierarchical libraries, a full Ada 95 parser and priority queueing. The user may select between Ada 83 code and Ada 95 code with a simple command line option. Additional Ada 95 facilities will be added in future incremental releases.
Tartan offers Ada development systems for four groups of embedded processors:
- Texas Instruments C3x and C40 digital signal processors (DSPs)
- Intel i960 KB, MC and MX RISC processors
- Motorola 68xxx processors
- MIL-STD-1750A.
Tartan Ada development systems are hosted on Digital Equipment's VAX/VMS and the Sun Microsystems SPARC workstation running SunOS or Solaris.Each Tartan Ada development system is validated by the U. S. government.
Each Tartan Ada development system includes the following core components:
- highly optimized Ada compiler
- Ada librarian supporting multiple libraries and multiple access
- modular, customizable Ada runtime system
- linker that precisely controls memory layout and eliminates unused program and runtime sections
- AdaScope--Tartan's window-oriented, customizable, source- and machine-level symbolic debugger
- the Tartan Tool Set including the AdaTrak dynamic profiler, AdaRef static analyzer, AdaList annoted listing tool, Checksum utility, object file librarian, and file conversion utilities
- Board Retargeting Kit, to customize the debug kernel to a specific board configuration by modifying a small target-resident program.
- on-line help for the compiler, librarian, and AdaScope
- complete documentation for all components of the system.
Tartan Ada development systems also include a number of important packages:
- a library of pre-defined standard Ada packages
- runtime client package providing access to tasking data structures and operations
- intrinsics package providing access to target hardware facilities
- math Package including elementary math functions that meet the specifications of the SIGAda and Ada-Europe Numeric Working Groups
Tartan also offers a number of optional components, including:
- expanded memory support in the 1750A product
- inter-processor allowing coordination of Ada programs among different C3x, C40 and 68xxx processors via shared memory
- a multi-processor debugging capability in the C40 product
- simulator and emulator support in several products
- an assembler for the 1750A, C3x/C40, and i960 targets
- support for the SPOX math package in the C3x and C40 products
- runtime modification kits for all products
- link retargeting kits to adapt the interface between AdaScope and a different communications link configuration
Tartan also offers third-party products that enhance the developmentenvironment:
- GrammaTech's Ada-ASSURED, a language-sensitive editor that also provides facilities for browsing, style and standards enforcement and program formatting.
- Reasoning Systems' REFINE/Ada and Software Refinery that help to evaluate and reengineer existing Ada programs
