Summary0008886: Support for Ada code compilation
DescriptionCMake build system does a good job for building my C, C++, Qt applications. I
also use Ada programming language for which I use the GNAT compilation system
available from https://libre.adacore.com [^] .

The problem is comes when one has to do mixed language programming C, C++, Ada
at times. The programmer should write a GNU makefile.

It will be great if I had CMake system managing all my builds, whether single
or mixed language programs.

Thanks.

There are Ada support files for CMake in PlPlot cvs:
http://plplot.cvs.sourceforge.net/plplot/plplot/cmake/modules/ [^]

I hope this helps for getting started.

Hi Alex,
Yes I see that there are some cmake modules written and available for download.
I'm looking for something which is officially a part of the CMake software.
I downloaded the modules and tried to write a cmake file on cygwin, it failed unfortunately. I don't know if it works on cygwin.

Also I'm looking for supporting documentation that is part of the official software which is missing in this case. So are there any plans for making it official or we've to continue with this unofficial package?

The Ada support is not yet included in cmake because the one who wrote it didn't have the time to do it. Basically we just need somebody who uses Ada and who does the work of getting it into CMake.
I'll send him an email.

So, I assume that you'll take care of this. I do use Ada, C and C++. Let me know if I can be of any help and contribute to getting this done.

Hmm, not really.
The way would be: you make it work, I assist you with this as much as I can, and then I commit it (I'm not using Ada myself and I'm working on CMake only in my spare time).

Your idea sounds interesting.
So how should I go about it as I've limited knowledge of CMake internals.
I would need documentation on how to get started, guidelines and what should go where in which file etc.

I'm not an Ada guy, I won't work on this anytime soon.
