Summary:
Ada 2005 is the latest version of the International Standard for the
programming language Ada. Formally, it is an Amendment of ISO/IEC
8652:1995 (E) rather than a completely new standard. The primary
goals for the new version were to enhance its capabilities
particularly in those areas where its reliability and predictability
are of great value. Accordingly, a number of intriguing and
attractive ideas have been included and implemented in a coherent
manner as appropriate to the level of perfection necessary for the
diligent maintenance of a language standard. The Ada 2005 Rationale
describes not only the changes from Ada 95 but also the reason for
the changes. It starts with an introduction providing a general
overview and this is followed by seven chapters focusing on OOP;
access types; structure and visibility; tasking and real time;
exceptions, generics, etc.; the predefined library; and containers.
The book concludes with an epilogue largely concerned with
compatibility issues.
