I'm sorry if I disrupt this thread with a slightly off-topic question
(which I'm sure has been discussed countless times before) BUT
This use-thingy. Is it really ant good? I've only ever used Ada in HUGE
projects with loads of people writing the code and I've found that the
use-clause can be a real pain as it dosn't give you a clue as to where
things are declared. Right now I'm teaching new arrivals about Ada 95
and I invariably tell them NOT to use the use-clause.
Now, there're a lot of very clever and skilled people reading this
news-group and I'd be interested in your feelings on "use". Is it a Do
or Don't? Generally speaking?
My Hello World would probably look something like this:
-- "Hello, World"
with Ada.Text_IO;
procedure Hello_World is
package Tio renames Ada.Text_IO; -- Rename common packages so I don't
have to
-- type in the whole thing every time I
use it
begin
Tio.Put_Line("Howdy, World!"); -- Use Tio to access Ada.Text_IO
end Hello_World;
> -- "Hello, World!" program in Ada
>
> with Ada.Text_IO;
>
> use Ada.Text_IO;
> procedure Hello_World is
> -- null;
> begin -- Hello_World
> Put_Line (Item => "Hello, World!");
> end Hello_World;
