thanks for the pointers! I did not have some of these before.
Now, I was reading this below, from the above paper:
"1) Separate Compilation and Library Management
Ada: An Ada compiler is required to enforce consistency and
strong type checking across separate compilation. The concept of
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
a program library is built into the language, based on separately
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
compilable modules called "library units" whose names are part of
a hierarchical name space."
GNAT, probably the most popular Ada95 compiler, does NOT use the
program library model, but uses the code-source model, i.e. the
traditional model.
So, what going on here? who is wrong, and who is right?
thanks,
Nasser
