Hello,

as far as I know there are only a few Ada mappings for CORBA:


        - ANSA and APM ltd. provide an Ada83 mapping that might be get freely
          via the Eurocontrol Web site
          (see http://www.eurocontrol.fr/projects/arh-spv_ext/comp/)
        - IONA provides an Ada95 mapping via the Object Interface company and
          its ORBexpress product (see http://www.ois.com)
        - TRW provides an Ada95 mapping in the UNAS ORB 
          (see http://www.trw.com)
        - Top Graph'X provides an Ada95 mapping in its ORB 
          (see http://www.topgraphx.com)
        - ADEPT is an educational project and has an Ada95 mapping 
          and some Java features (see http://www.cs.tamu.edu/research/ADEPT/)

If anyone knows of other products I would be very happy to hear about them.



A couple of somewhat related question: Are there any
books/articles/tutorials dedicated to Object-Oriented Programming with
Ada95 ? Is there one of them meant for Ada83 programmers that also
know well OO programming ?
