It covers such equally-important subjects as naming conventions, concurrency, portability, performance, and a lot more. It also provides a rationale for each of its guidelines -- guidelines which, if followed, would produce more-readable, more-maintainable, and better-performing Ada programs. Just my $0.02 worth. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephen Leake" Newsgroups: comp.lang.ada To: Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2003 12:19 PM Subject: Re: Ada programs depend on fonts (was: aunit?) > The point is for the entire Ada community to have exactly _one_ > definition of good style, and _always_ use it.
