I meant if you want to employ the richness, "rich" leads to "complex to use". For example, if a typical C programmer want to program with C++, he or she has to familiarize him or her with the class library of C++. Or, the richness of C++ can't be enjoyed enough. Actually, I know little about Ada. I only heard someone claimed it's impossible to finish the Ada project. At the same time, my boss(I'm a TA for) here asks me to collect such papers. I trust him. However, I failed to find one in the internet. So I post such message on the newsgroup. Now I've got 4 papers about the "complex" or "difficult" problems of Ada. It's DONE! Here I don't mean you're wrong because the ideas are perhaps out-of-date. Anyway, thank you very much. Your solid and extensive knowledge is pretty impressive.
