Ada 95 is a strongly-typed, compiled programming language with a syntax in the spirit of Pascal. The GNU Ada Translator is a free standards-compliant compiler based on GCC. A binary distribution for Windows (NT, 2000, XP) is available here. It uses GCC 2.8.1, so be warned that it will override any other version of GCC you have installed. Fortunately, running the installer again will completely remove the software from your computer. Both installing and uninstalling it are painless. |
