Bug#563242: ITP: gprbuild-4.4 -- a multi-language extensible build tool
Package: wnpp
version: 1.0
Severity: wishlist
Upstream Author : AdaCore (report@adacore.com)
URL : http://libre.adacore.com/libre/
License : GPL
Programming Lang: Ada
Description : a multi-language extensible build tool
A set of tools for processing GNAT project files. gprbuild runs tools
on the specified source files; gprclean removes the corresponding
built files; gprconfig configures both tools. It is highly
configurable; the default configuration supports compiling Ada,
Assembler, C, C++, and Fortran sources.
.
This package contains the executables gprbuild, gprclean, gprconfig.
The package name includes "-4.4" because it is tightly tied to gnat;
gnat is currently at version 4.4. Future releases of gprbuild will
coincide with future releases of gnat.
It might make sense to have the "gnat" meta-package install gprbuild
as well (the AdaCore distributions of the GNAT toolset do this).
However, gprbuild can be used without gnat.
