May 292009
 

Yesterday (actually, May 27) I encountered a pretty long “glitch” on http://libre.adacore.com, and was wondering either there were too many downloads that brought down the site, or AdaCore gurus were working on the site for the coming release.

I’m genius ๐Ÿ˜€ – it turned out GNAT GPL 2009 is ready today, I’ve been waiting for this version for quite some time, most because of the new feature that can generate Ada specification based on C/C++ header files.

I’m going to see if I can get Ada specification files for DirectShow stuffs, I believe this kind of feature works fine on *nix, but for Windows … I don’t have much confidence as Windows is at the bottom of the supporting list in open source world.

Let’s see.
