The rest of the standards at NASA states that this standard is for the NASA group or a NASA Team. Plus, I am looking for the Upper-tier standard for all team for software programs Since you documented GNAT a product of Adacore, it it seams that you should talk about others vendors as well. Plus. most standards that use GNAT also state that they should include the following pragmas in the source code to insure compatibility. Or at least use one or more to limit those features of GNAT that are not allowed in the source code. pragma Restrictions ( No_Implementation_Attributes ) ; pragma Restrictions ( No_Implementation_Pragmas ) ; pragma Restrictions ( No_Implementation_Restrictions ) ; In , Stephen Leake writes: >anon@anon.org (anon) writes: > >> 1.
