Robert Winkler asks

<<Can anyone point me to references regarding how the inheritance model in
Ada9x was developed? Was it driven by a formal inheritance model?>>

The first reference to look at is the Ada 83 reference manual, since Ada 83
already had inheritance, and the Ada 95 model is built on that foundation.

Can anyone point me to references regarding how the inheritance model in
Ada9x was developed? Was it driven by a formal inheritance model?

Thanks.

Read chapter 4 of the Ada 95 Rationale.  The last section of that chapter
compares the Ada model with previous work:
