Ada Compiler Validation Summary Report: Certificate Number: 891130S1. 10209 U.S. Navy AdaVAX, Version 3.0 (/NO Optimize Option) VAX 8350 and VAX 11/ 785 Hosts and VAX 8350 and VAX 11/785 Target
Abstract
This Validation Summary Report (VSR) describes the extent to which a specific Ada compiler conforms to the Ada Standard, ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A. This report explains all technical terms used within it and thoroughly reports the results of testing this compiler using the Ada Compiler Validation Capability (ACVC). An Ada compiler must be implemented according to the Ada Standard, and any implementation-dependent features must conform to the requirements of the Ada Standard. The Ada Standard must be implemented in its entirety, and nothing can be implemented that is not in the Standard. Even though all validated Ada compilers conform to the Ada Standard, it must be understood that some differences do exist between implementations. The Ada Standard permits some implementation dependencies--for example, the maximum length of identifiers or the maximum values of integer types. Other differences between compilers result from the characteristics of particular operating systems, hardware, or implementation strategies. Keywords: Ada programming language, Ada compiler validation summary report, Ada compiler validation capability.
