Most up to date AI302 implementation?

Most up to date AI302 implementation?

[Alex R. Mosteo]

Hello, I'm trying to get the subject thing and I'm a bit confused. At 
charles.tigris.org I'm directed to Mr Heaney website. There's a zip file 
almost a year old.

Files inside are named ai302.blah... but I detect some differences with 
the ones used in, for example, AWS, which I have around.

In AWS:

AI302.Indefinite_Hashed_Maps;

In Heaney's website:

AI302.Hashed_Indefinite_Maps;

Finally, in the CVS of tigris I see the files have the name:

Ada.Containers.Indefinite_Hashed_Maps;

So I'm a bit puzzled. My first intention was to use the zip at Mr Heaney 
site, but now I don't know.

Or maybe the best option is to export the CVS version?

The latest version is always here:

http://charles.tigris.org/source/browse/charles/src/ai302/

This is a CVS repository, so I recommend using your favorite front end
to get the latest sources.

Which would you recommend one use AI302 or charles?
How is the status of AI302?

Keep up the excellent work

AI302 - is going forward for approval to WG9 for Ada2005. If you have an 
Ada2005 compiler, then uses Matt's version at http://charles.tigris.org/

If you have a plain old Ada95, then there is an upwards compatible 
version at http://www.martin.dowie.btinternet.co.uk/

Cheers

I have also updated the index.html page here:

http://charles.tigris.org/

That web page now names the CVS tree at tigris explicitly.

AWS uses AI302 because it is not possible to add children to Ada. This was a
move forward to use the API of the next Ada standardized containers. As soon
as those are stable and made available by compiler vendors, "AI302" in AWS
will be replaced by "Ada".

Note that the reference implementation is on Matthew Web site at Tigris.

In truth I was not worried by the AI302/Ada part but the dancing 
"Indefinite_Hashed" "Hashed_Indefinite". I've compiled these Ada 
children using the -a -u switches of gnat and it works ok.

By the way, it would be a good idea if vendors started by just removing 
the checks on Ada.Containers.Whatever uses, without waiting for stable 
and full implementations of those packages.
