I do not know Java good enough to judge. But the problems as I see them are
mostly with MD and MI. Java has no MD. Ada has neigher. But if it had, how
to call on an entry point that belongs to two protected objects, or else
tasks? Consider imaginary:
task type A;
task type B;
entry Do_It (First : in out A; Second : in out B); -- Of both A and B
task type C is new A with ...;
entry Do_It (First : in out C; Second : in out B); -- Overrides in A
X : A'Class := ...; Y : B'Class := ...;
begin
select
Do_It (X, Y); -- Dispatching entry call
...
What about freezing rules with MD? May I override barriers? How to override
the body an entry point of a task? How to inherit an entry point? How to
add a new entry point? From a caller view point, there is no difference
between entry points of tasks and protected objects, should then exist a
common parent type for them? Should caller know any difference between an
entry point and a subroutine? Isn't that an implementation detail? If so,
how to [efficiently] implement entry points with a return parameter? Or
should we introduce generic formal entry points, protected type, task type
parameters?
I suspect lots of pitfalls here. However, ask more knowledgeable people
than me ...
