Ciao,
While reading "the big online book of Linux Ada programming", by Ken O.
Burtch, I stopped at the following assertion
(http://www.pegasoft.ca/resources/boblap/13.html):
"Usually you allocate memory with the Ada new statement. Where does new
get its memory? It uses the standard C library's malloc function."
Does really Ada use Libc to implement "new"? Is it true?
It seems absurd to me. I don't understand why Ada should depend on a C
standard library.
Regards,
fabio de francesco
