Since Ada and VAX are both rotting corpses > awaiting a dignified burial ... What? If I am not mistaken DEC has distance itself from VAX. Ada is continues to be supported by many people throughout the world. If you have any statistics on the "rotting" of Ada I would love to see them. Since Ada is a great language and as many advantages and few drawbacks compared with the more popular languages like C/C++, Java, Pascal, Fortran, Cobol etc... It is only a matter of time and marketing that Ada is placed, rightfully, as the language for the next millennium, IMHO. -- Michael Smith Persident, AlphaSoft, Inc.
