I have been an Ada partisan since 1985 or so. I moved many thousand lines of code from Ada 83 to Ada 95 with minor problems. I have used the same code on Windows, Solaris and Linux. I have also moved many lines of code from one C or C++ compiler to another, and cursed Kernigham, Ritchie and Soustrup every time. Ada was portable. I am starting a new project where CORBA seemed like the solution. I downloaded AdaBroker and compiled it with GNAT 3.14p (Debian Sarge). I needed another system to test the networking, and my test system is Fedora Core 2, gcc 3.3.3-7 (the cutting edge as of May 18.) AdaBroker failed. I sent a complaint, and was told "AdaBroker is obsolete, use PolyOrb." I tried and found it won't compile under either gnat 3.14p or gcc 3.3.3-7. I don't want to spend my time debugging tools needed to get my work done. What has happened to the advantage Ada had over C/C++?? blc
