Even if you could work, you might want to take a look at the license terms. However, the Visual Studio Shell[1] may or may not be the answer to your problem. Note that Microsoft says[2]: “The Visual Studio shell integrated mode can be installed together with all editions of Visual Studio except the Express editions.” Also, if memory serves correctly, only the .Net edition of GNAT integrates with Visual Studio. Integration is performed during installation, if Visual Studio is found.

Building Windows GUI applications in Ada is a right pain in the backside, because there's no decent dialog designer (not even for .Net). And as mentioned, the Visual Studio integration seems to be dependent on the phase of the moon (Titan, not Luna). Albrecht |
