To be consistent, you should probably have
Name : Ada.Strings.Unbounded.Unbounded_String;
As others have pointed out, there's nothing related to OOP in your
example, Ada 0X will support the Object.Operation notation, and the
pointers, while perhaps needed in C++, are unnecessary in Ada. This
eliminates the many possibilities for error associated with manually
allocating and deallocating memory.
What is clear from your example is that C++ uses the same construct for
encapsulation, information hiding, and OOP. Ada separates these concepts.
Other than that, nice troll.
