Sequential Programming in Ada: Lessons Learned


What's hot right now in the proposal for Ada 2020 is increased support of safe parallelism. However, the support for sequential programming in Ada 2012 is absolutely great and probably underestimated.

This presentation will demonstrate lessons learned from making an Ada binding to the Wayland Client API: how to leverage nested subprograms, pragma Unmodified, subpools, Gnatcheck and GPS to provide a flexible/enjoyable way of working and at the same time maximize compile-time error checking when developing sequential algorithms.
