See the file NEWS for more details; here we summarize only important
cross-reference-tool-specific functions for corresponding Ada mode
operations.
- To use a cross reference tool other than gnatxref, you must write
+ The default cross-reference tool is 'gnatxref', provided by the file
+'ada-gnat-xref.el'. One other tool is supported: 'gpr_query'. To use
+it, add the following to '~/.emacs':
+
+ (require 'gpr-query)
+
+ To use 'gpr_query', the Ada code 'gpr_query.adb' must be compiled;
+see *note Installation::.
+
+ To use a cross reference tool other than the above, you must write
Emacs lisp code that provides the interface to the compiler, and set
-'ada-xref-tool' and the indirection variables. This has already been
-done for 'gnatinspect'; set 'ada-xref-tool' to ''gnat_inspect'.
+'ada-xref-tool' and the indirection variables.
- See 'ada-gnat-xref.el' and 'gnat-inspect.el' for examples.

'imenu'

'which-func'
The above can all be set by the following code in your '~/.emacs'.
Note that some are functions are added to 'before-save-hook'; they run
just before a buffer is written to disk. Also, the order is important;

-which-func unless they are loaded first.

For example:
'gnat-core.el' is a start at a language-agnostic interface to the
GNAT tools. It was first factored out from 'ada-gnat.el' and
- 'ada-mode.el' to support the multi-language 'gnat-inspect.el',
- which is still experimental.
+ 'ada-mode.el' to support the multi-language 'gpr_query.el'.
More code currently in 'ada-mode.el' could be migrated to
'gnat-core.el', in particular the project file support.
-'gnat-inspect.el'
- Provides an experimental interface to the experimental
- multi-language cross-reference tool 'gnatinspect' from AdaCore,
- which will supercede 'gnatxref'.
+'gpr-query.el'
+ Provides an interface to the external multi-language
+ cross-reference tool 'gpr_query'.
