Ada Compiler Validation Summary Report: Alsys, AlsyCOMP-018, Version 4. 32, VAX 6210 (Host and Target), 891208A1.10228

Abstract

This Validation Summary Report describes the extent to which a specific Ada compiler conforms 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. The information in this report is derived from the test results produced during validation testing. The validation process includes submitting a suite of standardized tests, the ACVC, as inputs to an Ada compiler and evaluating the results. The purpose of validating is to ensue conformity of the compiler to the Ada Standard by testing that the compiler properly implements legal language constructs and that it identifies and rejects illegal language constructs. Keywords: Compilers; Computer programs; Ada programming language; France.
