Catalogue of Ada Runtime Implementation Dependencies
Abstract
This catalogue describes those features of the Ada language that are allowed to vary among different implementations. It is derived from work done by the Ada Run Time Environment Working Group (ARTEWG), sponsored by ACM SIGAda, which produced the previous Catalogue of Ada Runtime Implementation Dependencies dated December, 1987. This previous version was based on analysis of the Ada Reference Manual (RM) and other associated documents, such as the Ada Compiler Validation Capability (ACVC) Implementor's Guide, and was structured following the same format as the RM. The current version has been restructured along functional similarities (issues) of the implementation features. New features have been added and approved Ada Issues have been analyzed and are reflected in the catalogue where appropriate. The document has been cross-indexed to the RM and a document index added to make it more usable and complete. In addition, some small errors have been found and corrected. The purpose of the document is to clearly identify those areas of the language that are implementation dependent and therefore are most likely to cause difficulties and limit the transportability of programs.
