You'd think...
But I have a hard time giving them the benefit of the doubt, because I
really do believe that if this were true we'd see Ada being used a lot
more!
So just out of curiosity, has anyone out there ever been involved with
or have first-hand knowledge of a project where an actual business case
analysis was undertaken with respect to language choice? Where it was
really decided to try to quantify the expected cost/benefits for the
various alternatives and make the decision on that basis? I'd be very
interested to hear about it...
