Ada (Trade Name) Compiler Validation Summary Report: Verdix Corporation Verdix Ada Development System, Version 5.2 for the CCI Power 6/32 under Power 6 UNIX, Release 1.11.

Abstract

The Validation Summary Report presents the results and conclusions of testing performed on the Verdix Ada Development System (VADS), version 5.2. Standardized tests serve as input to an Ada compiler, producing results which are evaluated by the validation team. This summary briefly states the highlights of the VADS, Version 5.2, validation. The suite of tests known as the Ada Compiler Validation Capability (ACVC), Version 1.6, was used. The ACVC is used to validate conformance of a compiler to ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A Ada. The purpose of testing is to ensure that a compiler properly implements legal language constructs and that it identifies and rejects illegal language. The testing also identifies behavior that is implementation dependent but permitted by the Ada Standard. Six classes of tests are used. These tests are designed to perform checks at compile time, at link time, or during execution.
