The fact that specs and bodies are separated, the child libraries... make it easier to split the project in modules and to have different teams working on each one. You can even build some dummy bodies just to test other units and replaced the dummy bodies by the right implementation when finished... Anyway all this is common in Ada and the support in the language is very good. Ada is good for large projects and large projects are very often distributed. Just my 2 cents, 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
