Executable File Names

By default, the executable file name corresponding to a main source is deduced from the main source file name. Through the attributes Executable and Executable_Suffix of package Builder, it is possible to change this default. In project Debug above, the executable file name for main source proc.adb is proc1. Attribute Executable_Suffix, when specified, may change the suffix of the executable files, when no attribute Executable applies: its value replace the platform-specific executable suffix. Attributes Executable and Executable_Suffix are the only ways to specify a non-default executable file name when several mains are built at once in a single gnatmake command.
