Programming in Ada 2005
John Barnes
“This book is going to be a tremendous resource that will prove useful for many years. It combines a broad description of the entire language, including its predefined libraries, with an in-depth study of a number of areas of particular interest such as object-oriented techniques or concurrency. It includes extensive examples showing how the numerous features of Ada can be made to work together in practical situations.”
~ Pascal Leroy, Chairman of the Ada Rapporteur Group.
Programming in Ada 2005 is the definitive tutorial and reference for a ground-breaking new version of Ada (Ada 2005), a significant revision of the language of choice for applications where safety, security and reliability are paramount.
The major changes from Ada 95 are:
Ø A new OO model to incorporate Java-style multiple inheritance and more rigorous error analysis prior to execution;
Ø Synchronized interfaces to unify the OO and concurrent domains – a radical innovation in language design;
Ø More flexible but totally safe manipulation of pointers;
Ø An improved structure enabling large programs to be decomposed more easily;
Ø Many extensions to the Real-Time facilities, keeping Ada ahead of other languages for embedded applications;
Ø Improved interfacing to other systems and languages;
Ø Enhanced standard library support including containers.
John Barnes was a key member of the original Ada design team and has been a pivotal figure in its evolution ever since. Over 150,000 students and software engineers have learned Ada from previous editions – widely praised for their witty and urbane style. He is also the author of High Integrity Software: The SPARK Approach to Safety and Security.
