It should serve as a caution against deploying damaging, unsafe and often useless technologies like RDBMS. There should be no such thing (there definitely exist better approaches to persistence) and no languages like SQL. Though this has nothing to do with Ada or C++, except that C is to blame for horrific interfaces to the RDBMS, making them worse than SQL requires. > It should serve as a caution to > those who seamlessly transition from "Ada is immune to entire > classes of errors prevalent in C++" to "Ada is immune to errors". No, Ada is immune exactly to this class of errors, which arise from unnecessary type conversions. The only reason why conversion is there is because of inability of C to describe even that pitiful set of datatypes SQL is capable of. Kick the mess out, rewrite it in Ada, and there will be no place for these errors. There cannot be safety if you communicate unsafe components. -- Regards, Dmitry A.
