This Ada05 library contains various utility packages for building Ada05 applications. This includes:
- A logging framework close to Java log4j framework,
- Support for properties
- A serialization/deserialization framework for XML, JSON, CSV
- Ada beans framework

- Several concurrency tools (reference counters, counters, pools, fifos, arrays)
- Process creation and pipes
- Support for loading shared libraries (on Windows or Unix)

Ada Util also provides a small test utility library on top of Ahven or AUnit to help in writing unit tests. Ahven is the default testing framework as it provides better reports.
For a detailed description on how you can configure, build and install the library refer to the Installation guide. Otherwise, you can easily configure and build the library with the steps described below.
To use Ahven testing framework, configure and build as follows:
./configure
make
To use AUnit, build with the following commands:
./configure --enable-aunit
make
The unit tests are built and executed with:
make test
And unit tests are executed with (256 success, 0 failed):
bin/util_harness
For the installation, use the following command:
make install
The samples can be built using:
gnatmake -Psamples
