This is a simple request for information. I am personally >an Ada fan, if you must know, but have been asked by a superior to provide som e >information. I'll post this, since I need help resolving the exact reference. In a previous life I remembered seeing a book-sized report that might help. I made a call and got some more info, but can't tell you where to get a copy or if an update exists. All the info I have follows: Ada & C++: Business Case Analysis July 1991 Produced by: Deputy Assistant of the USAF: Communications, Computers, a nd Logistics I can tell you that the conclusion was that their is no reason why C++ should be used over Ada. NO FLAMES PLEASE, I am just the messenger. Read the report and draw your own conclusions! My opinion on the results I keep to myself for religious reasons... Good luck, hope this helps. -- | _/|__ _ Patrick A.
