[gtkada] Compile GtkAda

[Adam Puleo]

I did some more digging on this.

When gprbuild generates the gtkada.lexch file it’s adding two lines:
-Wl,-Wl,-framework
-Wl,-Wl,CoreFoundation

The repeated -Wl is causing the problems. If I edit gtkada.lexch file and remove one of the duplicate -Wl’s gprlib then runs successfully.

Hi, I dont know MacOS but from what I see:

It is clear that ld has issues with finding 2 search paths.

perhaps there is a conflict between /users and /Users since it also says:
>gprlib: /users/adampuleo/opt/gnat/2018/bin/gcc execution error

The next error confuzzles me:
>ld: unknown option: -Wl

-Wl is the gcc switch to pass options to ld when gcc is used as the front end to ld, so ld should never see it. 
It is almost as if ld is run directly without going through gcc.

So considering all this I think that maybe your PATH is not set right.

Try "echo $PATH" in the terminal where you compile and see where it points.

Hello,

I’m trying to compile GtkAda on macOS using Gnat 2018.

Configure (CC=/usr/bin/gcc ./configure --prefix=/usr/local) completed successfully.

Make fails with the following messages:

I’m unsure on how to proceed on troubleshooting this.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
