">COTS - These movement to COTS hass been including move and

What has COTS to do with C++ and 4GL coding?

COTS can be written in all sorts of languages including Ada, C++ and 4GL's

non-COTS stuff can be written in all sorts of languages including Ada,
C++ and 4GL's.

The concept of COTS has nothing whatsoever to do with the language
used to generate it. 

Almost all compilers are of course COTS, including Ada compilers, but
that does not somehow mean that programs written with COTS compilers
are themselves COTS.

Are people really this confused?
