But, before :you get excited, this doesn't mean that I think that I think that the Ada ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Stammering :-). [...] :Comparison with Eiffel: :2) Multiple dispatching permitted. Operations multiply dispatch by default. This may be reduced to single dispatching equivalent to Eiffel's by freezing all but one parameter. Note that this is different from (and more general than) Ada's 'multiple controlling operands'. [...] :6) Concurrency mechanism is more symmetrical. Because all of the operands to a separate routine are locked at the same time. [My understanding of SCOOP is that Current would be locked first (as a result of an enclosing call), then any separate parameters]. /// Don.
