T.E.D. says

"I believe that was when it was recoded into Ada (95). If I remember
correctly, the size of the Ada 83 version was even longer. Ada (95)
has not been around long enough to have any real reliable numbers about
how typical this is."

nope, that's wrong, for the kind of approach the Booch components take, you
would expect the size in C++ to be about the same size as Ada 95, there is
no basis for expecting any significant difference.
