Any replies (Email or post) >will be gratefully recieved. The closest I can think of would be the 3rd ed of Booch's Software Engineering with Ada, which has Ada 9X information. You may want to check out the Ada homepage, too; visit the books section. Bruce Blum had some stuff in his book Software Engineering, A Holistic View, but it's probably closer to the Sommerville SE book (not the Ada one) in level of detail. Sadly, Sommerville backed out some of the Ada examples and replaced them with C++ in the latest ed, which he justified (if I remember correctly) because of its "popularity." What's wrong with these guys? You may want to take a look at Pressman's book, too. It's also in a new edition. > >Les Hazlewood matt -------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew Heaney Software Development Consultant (818) 985-1271
