I have a question to you, too.
Assume you have to program a brake control for car, would you do it in
Ada? Then I would like to know which tools you use. The systems I know
are based on microcontrollers HC11/HC12 or 8051. _I_ don't know any
Ada-compiler for these chips. While there are a lot of C develop
environments, there are only very few for Modula, and none for Ada.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
The next point is: C systems are cheap and even free available. Modula
systems are expensive. But - Ada prices are far beyond from good and
bad. Have you ever heard the prices from Green Hills for example? A
small company with five to ten people can not buy it. And what I've
heard about ACT-prices, they seem not be suitable, too. Embedded systems
in non military environment have not some k-dollars available for
sw-tools.
