Re: Ada - State of the art tools... lacking

Ok I give :)  You're exactly correct!  One big change in, what is it, 15
years; not bad.
Some of the changes from Ada 83 to Ada 95 also broke programs, and that's one
big change in 12 or so years.  About the same record.

My point is that Borland is not likely to change ObjectPascal in any
significant way
very ofter.
