> I want to translate some of my Oberon programs to Ada.
An OT advice from the experience of a few translations Modula-2 to Ada (guessing Oberon is same as M2 on these points): be careful with the following:
- M2 is case-sensitive, Ada not
- Ada's parameter passing rules are different
- Ada has no WITH instruction; you deal with a "rename" declaration
A not-so-bad way is to use a M2-Pascal translator, then the p2ada translator.
Especially the WITH instruction is correctly and automatically translated by p2ada (because there is a quasi Pascal compiler under the hood).
