According to this:
http://research.scee.net/files/presentations/gcapaustralia09/Pitfalls_of_Object_Oriented_Programming_GCAP_09.pdf
C++ development started in 1979, and was named "C++" in 1983.
Ada development started in the late 70's (not sure exactly,
probably before 1979), and was named "Ada" before 1983.
So I think Ada slightly predates C++.
It also says C++ was standardized in 1998. Is that right?
I'm surprised it was so late...
Ada was first standardized in 1983.
IIRC, Ada 83 tasks did not have private parts, and protected types
did not exist. Packages had private parts. They were a mistake,
IMHO. But I don't think it's fair to blame Bjarne Stroustrup for
this mistake. ;-)
