The Linux- and Solaris-hosted ObjectAda 8.2 environments improve the underlying Aonix Ada 95 compiler, reducing compile time for the PowerPC/LynxOS platform.
In ObjectAda 8.2, the symbolic debugger can be attached to a running Ada application.
This feature aids LynxOS developers in resolving programming errors discovered after the test and debug phase is completed.
"Our customers have come to rely on the robust efficiency of the combined Aonix and LynuxWorks offering for more than a decade", noted Jacques Brygier, VP Marketing of Aonix.
"They can now take full advantage of ObjectAda 8.2 and the rich set of functionality and real-time capabilities offered by LynxOS".
ObjectAda 8.2 Linux and Solaris development platform targeting the PowerPC/LynxOS embedded platforms are available under the CorePack packaging.
CorePack includes an Ada 95 compiler, Ada 95 optimiser, partial annex C support, partial annex D support, syntactic editor, and both graphical and command line interfaces.
Other parts of the CorePack toolchain consist of a library configuration tool, program builder, source browsing engine, source registration and unregistration tools, source code reference tool, symbolic debugger, and graphical installer.
Online documents in PDF format and sample programs provide the developer with immediate development assistance.
In addition to the CorePack packaging, both environments offer additional optional components.
One of these components is Ada-Assured, an advanced editor that provides additional language-sensitive features and style-guideline conformance checking.
Aonix ADT (Ada plug-in into Eclipse) and compatibility with Luminosity is expected in Q2 2006.
