Looking for an Ada project

Looking for an Ada project

[Shameem Goolamun]

Hi, i'm a univ student and I'm looking for a project written in Ada (pure
ada, without procedures written in other languages) - the source code of
course.
Thanks for helping me.
Please reply to shameemg@club-internet.fr

Take a look at the samples on the Ada Source Code Treasury,

What kind of homework assignment is this? "Here, class: Go off and write
me anything in Ada..." Pretty vague requirements...

Look at: http://www.adahome.com/ There are links to lots of software
there. Hint: If plagiarism is your intent, be sure to strip off any
banners with author's names. You may succeed in getting a grade - but
you won't get an education.

Considering the time of year, your cynicism is probably well placed. But it is
farily reasonable to want to look at a large amount of Ada source in order to
learn how to use the language properly. Example programs always help me that
way. There's a lot you can't pick up about a language just by reading manuals.
Reading other's code is a very good shortcut to experience.

Its also possible he doesn't believe such a program exists, and wants to prove
his belief, but now I'm getting cynical...

I can see your point and perhaps I am being cynical - maybe the request
had some legitimate intent. But still, the request is a bit vague which
makes it difficult to point in the right direction. If it's "I want to
look at how other people code in Ada" it may be one thing. If it's "I
want a large body of Ada code to test my Ada parser against" that might
be different. I can also see how it might be "I want to see lots of
source code because I have an assignment to write a gazorenthorpe
routine and I'll bet someone with a large project already did one of
those..." But that's thinking along the lines of expecting the worst out
of people. :-)

You know, I think that if someone sees only the bad side of things in what
others say, THEY unconsciously have the problem they see in others' words.
May be you're a jack in Ada, but concerning discersion, you've still got a
long way to go.
Thanks anyway.

Folks in c.l.a. tend to be a very suspicious lot, especially around finals
time. Trust me, if you hung out here for several years like Marin has, you
would be that way too.

For that reason, along with many others, it is usually best to include a good
explanation of *why* you want the information when you post a very general
question.

But enough of the silly lectures. You can find loads of Ada source code to
look over on the semi-official Ada homepage ( http://www.adahome.com ), and
on David Botton's web page as mentioned in another post. Also the sources for
Gnat are freely available, but being a compiler based on gcc there are other
languages involved (C, assembly). My OpenToken package (
http://www.telepath.com/dennison/Ted/OpenToken/OpenToken.html ) has a rather
interesting use of dynamic dispatching to perform lexical analysis, but it is
just a set of packages, not a complete program.

There's lots more out there. But without knowing your motives, its tough to
tell what would work for your needs and what won't.

Is it finals time in France (where the original query seems to have
been posted from)? Anyway, I see no reason for paranoia when the
answer is going to be along the lines of "go to the library and look
under <insert UDC number here>", or in this case "go to www.adahome.com
and browse". I am even inclined to answer more direct homework
questions, provided I can come up with an answer sufficiently out of
the ordinary that simply figuring out how to make use of it would be
worthy of a homework assignment...

That's a better point, but perhaps he wants to figure that out on his own.

Sure look at the GNAT sources that are freely available.

This is many Mega-Byte of Ada sources, is that enough :-)

Take a look at the Ada95 design patterns archive.
