Rummy concurs. I meet him yesterday and if it is true that he likes to have the augmented assignment operators into Ada its first action will be to have a law voted to force everybody in the US to program in Ada as this will lead to great performance increase for the US nation. He said that this is currently a proposal, Bill Gates is going to find the best way to migrate the whole compagny to Ada. Next awaited Windows version (named Longhorn) will be programmed 100% in Ada. See http://www.dreams-come-true.gov/ada-rocks for the whole interview. As you see Ada is far from being dead! Have a nice week-end, Pascal. -- --|------------------------------------------------------ --| Pascal Obry Team-Ada Member --| 45, rue Gabriel Peri - 78114 Magny Les Hameaux FRANCE --|------------------------------------------------------ --| http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pascal.obry --| "The best way to travel is by means of imagination" --| --| gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net --recv-key C1082595
