It is thus writen for users of the compiler.

This is a complete different point of view which is important for teaching on systems programming (specially real-time concepts) and compilers. --- Javier Miranda -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- A Detailed Description of the GNU Ada Run-Time (J.Miranda, 2002) Free book available at: http://www.iuma.ulpgc.es/users/jmiranda ----------------------------------------------------------------
