4.6 polyorb.gpr

This section describes how to build your program using project files. An alternative method, using polyorb-config, is described in the following section. polyorb-config is intended primarily for Unix-like systems. The project-file method will work on all supported systems.

To build your application, create a project file as usual. Import the polyorb.gpr project by putting with "polyorb"; in your project file.

Set the ADA_PROJECT_PATH environment variable to point to the directory containing polyorb.cfg, which is <prefix>/lib/gnat. If SOAP is being used, ADA_PROJECT_PATH must also be set so we can find xmlada.gpr.

If your project file is my_proj.gpr, you can build it by saying:

       $ gnatmake -P my_proj

See the GNAT User's Guide and the GNAT Reference Manual for more information on project files.
