Well, that's basically what gnatmake does in the script... Except that unlike C, Ada needs a run-time, even for simple things, so you need in addition to point (using e.g. -I) to the runtime, which is built under obj/gcc/ada/rts, so from obj/gcc directory, you can do e.g: ./xgcc -Bstage1/ -c -Iada/rts -Itestsuite/ada/acats/support Not that difficult after all... And if the Ada run-time hasn't been built yet (partial build), then you can do: ./xgcc -Bstage1/ -c -Iada -Itestsuite/ada/acats/support although this is not recommended, as you will not end up using the same run-time file, which might have an impact on the generated code.
