Abstract

The Ada Rapporteur Group (ARG), following the instructions of ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG9 is preparing an update to the Ada 2005 standard. This paper presents a snapshot of the more important language enhancements under discussion. Even though these enhancements are not yet in their final form, and will not become part of the proposed new standard until approved by ISO, the description that follows is an accurate reflection of the main directions in which the language is evolving. However, the names of packages, subprograms, and formal parameters, as well as some details of the syntax might change from what is presented here.
