ABSTRACT
Ada 2005 is the latest chapter in the Ada story. Ada 95 was a huge leap forward from Ada 83. However, experience showed that Ada 95 has a number of gaps. Ada 2005 is not such a giant leap forward but aims rather to round off Ada 95 and so provide the community with a really smooth programming language suited for the demanding applications of the 21st century.
John will explain the specific goals of the development and introduce the key new features of Ada 2005. The most obvious new features are in the OO model with the introduction of interfaces and in the real-time area with more control over timing and scheduling plus much more in the predefined library. But there are other improvements as well in areas such as visibility control, exceptions and generics. And of course also downward closures so that Ada is at last as good as Algol 60 in that area.
