I'm a Fortran9x programmer, with some experience/exposure to C, too.
I would like to learn Ada, and use it to program PC (under Win
95/98/NT4/2000) and industrial PC under DOS, for automation
applications. I foresee the need to do some Windows programming, and
also to send/receive characters via the serial port.
I understand that at some time I should upgrade to a commercial
compiler, but I would like to show Ada's capabilities, so I could
justify an Ada compiler versus a C or VB compiler.
Do you have any suggestion, pointers to book, on-line tutorials and so
on ?
Apologizing for my english, Many thanks in advance
Gigi Piacentini
