The mistake was completely on my part, I somehow connected the dots the
wrong way in my head.
The only exceptions (for now) are archivers/zstd and ports-mgmt/synth
which were already picked up by new volunteers in the mean time.
GCC 6.1 was released this week. The Ada Framework in FreeBSD ports has
been based on GCC 5.3 GNAT although GCC 6.x has been supported for awhile
via the ADA_DEFAULT option in make.conf.
Now that GCC 6 has been officially released, switch to it by default.
People can maintain the old foundation by putting "ADA_DEFAULT=5" in
/etc/make.conf.
Libraries built by one GNAT are unusable by another, so almost every Ada
port has been bumped as a result. Noticable exceptions are dns/ironsides
which fails to build on gcc6 (thus USES=ada:5 is set) and cad/ghdl which
needs additional testing as it may require gcc5 on FreeBSD (DragonFly
uses the LLVM backend only).
OpenToken is a facility for performing token analysis and parsing within
the Ada language. It is designed to provide all the functionality of a
traditional lexical analyzer/parser generator, such as lex/yacc. But due
to the magic of inheritance and runtime polymorphism it is implemented
entirely in Ada as withed-in code. No precompilation step is required, and
no messy tool-generated source code is created. The tradeoff is that the
grammar is generated at runtime.
