Hello people.

I'm examining some container libraries for use. I suppose you'll say
I'm the best suited to know my needs and choose the proper one, but
anyway I look for your experiences of use. I'm particularly interested
in sortcomings/buggy implementations you may have found. Also your
personal preferences can be helpful. It's hard to get a grasp in such
relatively large libraries so your advice can save me handy time.

My requeriments are, basicly: ordering, finding (both time-efficient)
and multitasking support if possible.

I've found:

* Booch components.
     I only miss multitasking support. They are a bit tricky to
instantiate but
     only at first.

* AdaSL.
     They seem very complete. Also without multitasking.

* Mats Weber's Ada component library
     Multitasking support for the relevant types, interesting
(unrelated)
     packages.

* PragmAda reusable components.
     I like the multitasking support and its simplicity, but at the
same time I
     fear they can result too simple in the end.
     
Kind regards,

A. Mosteo.
