There are a number of GNAT tools that have to be build using the same exact sources as the compiler that it serves. Two examples of this are GPRbuild and ASIS. The latter is an important component of several other language semantic tools. Accordingly, a separate port is being created to build a static library that need these compiler sources. Incidentally, diverging sources is the reason devel/gprbuild-aux stopped building after lang/gcc-aux was upgraded. With this new scheme, this type of failure should no longer occur. This is a dependency of the upcoming lang/asis port, and must be specified as a build dependency by any port that needs ASIS. Approved by: bapt (mentor)

Gnat_Util is a library uniting a number of GNAT sources that are used by
|
|
different tools. At the moment Gnat_Util provides GNAT sources needed by ASIS,
|
|
GNATCOLL and Gprbuild. Its main purpose is allowing to simultaneously use
|
|
tools like ASIS and GNATCOLL (and other ones based on GNAT sources, if they
|
|
are to come), which would normally cause name conflicts between the same GNAT
|
|
sources that they use. Building both of them using same set of sources that
|
|
is Gnat_Util solves this problem.
