Does anyone have any experience using Rational Apex, specifically the
debugger?

Considerable (17 years with Rational) experience.  Why?

Well, when I download something to a target platform I was wondering if it's
possible to do an incremental download afterwards. I'm hoping to speed up
the process, but I've tried everything from teh download button and sync
button but it seems I have to exit the debugger then re-download to the
target platform.  Is this normal?

Need some help

[achour ait hamou]

Hi every one;

I'm a beginner in Ada programmation. I need to code a software for aircraft
Head Up Display system, so I don't know if someone have any idea how to do
it in Ada. I'll appreciate your help, even if you can send me some papers or
publications in this field.

Thanks a lot.

Merhaba Hamou,

You may download a copy of  my booklet, Ada Distilled, from www.adaic.org.

It is a starting point, but not a book on advanced Ada.    Also get a copy of
Ada As A Second Language by Norm Cohen and Concurrency in Ada by
Burns and Wellings.

You should also develop a friendship with one of the other Ada programmers
in your organization so you have someone who can answer questions or give
you direction as you go.

Are you asking about how to learn Ada programming in general or is there
something specific about Heads-Up Displays you had in mind?

If you're just trying to learn Ada well enough to get your job done, you can
find lots of books available at: http://www.adapower.com/ (See the "Books"
tab) There are also on-line books/tutorials there as well. (See the "Learn
Ada" tab) If you want help on some specific piece of Ada code that you have
trouble with, post a code snippet here and chances are someone will answer
you.

Try to be a little more specific with your question & maybe we can be more
helpful.

Hi every one;

Really, what I need is modeling a problem of Head Up Display in Ada then to
code it. Specifically, I'm looking for papers about this topics for the
first time. After, I will need to know how to program tasks and GUI
(graphical user interfaces) in Ada. I thank you for your help, I visited
adapower.com, it's a very nice site.

On the one side, you have the airplane Interface Control Document, that
tells you what information is available from the rest of the airplane.

On the other side, you have the hardware spec for the HUD itself, that tells
you how to set up graphics and such on the HUD.  (If you're simulating a HUD
on a PC, then you have the PC graphics library, or maybe X-Windows.
Whatever.)

The mechanization group should be telling you what they want displayed and
how, and what the controls should do.  Additionally, your systems engineer
should have written a requirements specification.

The rest is a Simple Matter of Programming.

SERIOUSLY:  Liberate yourself a copy of the user's manual for an existing
HUD, and figure out CONCEPTUALLY how you'd do it.  TRADITIONALLY, you're
going to have vertical scales for altitude and air speed, maybe with
annotations and extra markings to show "interesting" values, a horizontal
scale for heading, a flight path marker to show exactly where the aircraft
velocity vector is going, and horizon lines (one for the horizon, then lines
above and below to give convenient markings for various climb or descent
angles.

ALTERNATIVELY:  Buy a copy of the latest version of "Falcon", the computer
game.  It will give you a very good introduction to the F-16 avionics,
including the HUD.

If any of the terms "altitude", "air speed", or "heading" gave you any
trouble, you need to get some basic education in flying.
