adacut

adacut

A tool to "cut" versions out of an Ada source file.

The "cuts" are defined using lines that start with a --$ comments marker. Those lines are in the form --$ {begin, end, line} {question, answer, cut} [{comment, code}]

Example

The file titi_toto.ads

--$ begin question
-- Titi?
--$ end question
--$ begin answer
-- Toto
--$ end answer

can be turned into two different sources using adacut:

adacut -m question titi_toto.ads > titi.ads

-- Titi?

adacut -m answer titi_toto.ads > toto.ads

-- Toto

The -c <CUT> switch allows to cut the given block.

cuttable.ads

--$ begin cut
    Answer : Integer := 1;
--$ end cut
--$ begin cut
    Answer : Integer := 2;
--$ end cut

adacut -c 1 > cut.ads

    Answer : Integer := 1;
