It's Ada not C or C++. Ada compilers obey and not ignore the ISO standart. Ada compilers come without a 10 page list of ISO standart features not yet and probably never to be implemented. Ada does not only have an ISO standart - it also has an ISO standart test suite. BTW: The only programming language with an official standart test suite. Ada is most likely the most compatible programming language in existence that compiles into binary code. That's for theory, in pratice: I have used Ada with OS/2, MS-Windows, Linux, OpenVMS and the tendency is: if it runs in one OS it will run on any other as well. Well: unless you use OS specific features or grab deep down into the System packages. You see: we did not answer the question because we take compatibility as God/Goddess given. Not something special at all. Why ask - its there. Martin -- mailto://krischik@users.sourceforge.net Ada programming at: http://ada.krischik.com
