I have been programming for 16 years full time.
I have programmed in Fortran,Java,C,C++,Ada,Lisp,Perl and few others.
These are commerical real programs.
My most pleasent experience was in Ada.
Least problems, least bugs, least surprises. If I would rank all the
programs that I have written, I would put the Ada programs at the top
in terms of quality. I try as hard to write high quality code in any
laguage I work with, but the Ada programs for some reason always come
out with the least problems, and very rare bug reports.
if you are smart, go with Ada.
GNAT is here to stay. Even if Robert Dewar decides tommorrow to quit doing Ada,
GNAT source code is open and available for all time.
I have been programming in Java for more than one year. and I tell you,
writing very large application in Java produces many problems in terms
of integration, memory problems, performance. I find Java programs to have
a feel of slobness to them, something similar to Visual Basic. But If
I had to choose beteen Java and C/C++, I'll choose Java.
If I had to choose between Java and Ada, I'll pick Ada anytime of the day.
my 2 cents.
Bob.
