Something alike happens to Ada when compared to C++ like languages
(Java, etc.). I mean, by example:
C++:
     Jhony.run();
Ada:
     run (Jhony);

Isn't it like that? It doesn't mean Ada is not OO.

Is it a drawback in Ada too? 
The way we see that is that then 'saxon' way is the reversed one ;)

Bye.
