emacs, ada-mode 

Hi, I found a problem when trying to compile using a project (gpj) file. Is 
easy to solve.

The problem is that if you're at a directory with spaces, gnatmake will 
recieve two parameters instead of one.

The solution is easy: The variable ada-build-make-cmd needs double quotes 
between the "{gpr_file}" substring: 
"${cross_prefix}gnatmake -P\"${gpr_file}\" -o ${main} ${main} ${gnatmake_opt} -
cargs -I${src_dir} ${comp_opt} -bargs ${bind_opt} -largs ${link_opt}"

After setting that, you should restart Emacs.

Could you add this string as a default value?

Cheers!

Stephen, could you take a look at this one?  I'm not familiar with
ada-mode -- does the ${} expansion quote the argument itself?  If not,
this seems like a logical solution, but will probably fail if the file
has a " character in the name.

That was one year ago.  Any news here?

Thanks in advance.
