Of course, Ada is the best choice for that (and also the best choice as
a general purpose language as well)
Given that Ada is the best for safety, any idea when we keep hearing more news
about defense companies and places in NASA using C++ now and even Java
instead of Ada? I've heared 2 news about some projects in these areas
switching to C++ from Ada.
It is the most stupied thing to do, but it seems now that the mandate is
off, every idiotic manager out there is making their own descision with
no understanding of the facts, and many are not choosing Ada. This will
cost us tax payers more money in wasted and failed software projects, and
will also lead to unsafe software. And it does not seem any one is doing
anything abou it.
not only that, we are back to using 50 languages, and each department
selecting which language to use on its own. so the defense and space
industry is back to where we were in 1970.
