Sometimes there is no Ada equivalent. Sometimes, there may be an Ada equivalent, but usually a limited selection and often not nearly so full featured as similar C/C++ or other language tools. Pick your problem space and see what is in general use there - then develop things for Ada to address that, but better. In my current class of applications, one of the big tools is Simulink. That's just one example since we're still talking about embedded systems and there are a whole slew of things that go into that sort of development. But its stuff like that where Ada often comes up short - or at best a weak "Me Too!!!" player. MDC Alexander E.
