How does Alire generate the alire.toml file for Gtkada (Windows11)

General

In order to get a compiled Gtkada I use Alire (2.0.2) to get it. In order to build Gtkada, either with “alr -b get gtkada” or “alr get gtkada”; “alr build” a alire.toml file is needed
On the Gtkada Github pages there is no alire.toml file to be found, it is also not in the v25.0.0 zip file.

  • How does alr generates the alire.toml file, is not a general all purpose thing?
  • BTW “alr get gtkada” gets the 24.0.0 version. To get the 25.0.0 you need to explicitly say so (“alr get gtkada^25”). Why ?
