Ada Perspective Wizards

The GNATbench Ada perspective defines wizards for creating new Ada projects, new Ada source files, and new Ada source folders. There are multiple ways to select and invoke these wizards.

Using the File Menu

You can use the menu bar and select "File" and then "New", or use the contextual menu and select "New". In either case you can then select one of the wizards offered:

file new wizards

You could alternatively select "Other...", as shown in the figure above. This choice will bring up a dialog box showing all the "new" wizards, organized by category, so that you can choose which one to invoke. Note the "Ada" category.

new wizard selection

Expand the "Ada" category, if necessary, and choose between the wizards offered there. The same GNATbench wizards are offered as when using the File New menu approach.
