That includes shipboard weapon systems, such as anti-aircraft cannon controls as well as avionics systems aboard naval aircraft. The standard calls for all new software to develop in either C++ or Java, and makes specific mention of moving away from Ada. They plan to continue to use Ada only as required to support legacy systems that have already been developed." I've heard that the NOACE document has not yet been released - that what COTS Journal has been making such a big deal about was a leaked draft and not the final statement of policy. Perhaps it's better to wait for the final document to be published? - Ed
