Hi there,
To quote Ivan, " If you want to get to the top, you have to start at
the bottom".
For the moment I am learning Ada, so I am actually at the bottom.
And I have no idea where is the top... :-)
On my hardware I can play with :
- our own Real Time OS written in C, and a GNU gcc tool chain
together with an Hitex Windows IDE,
- WinCE, we have a BSP for it and Embedded Visual tools which allows
me to write C / C++,
- and for Linux, a BSP and a gcc tool chain.
And nothing for Ada.
I have some interest in learning Ada, found an elegant and powerfull
language, with nice features that could lead to something like Java
"program once, run everywhere" but in a compiled fa****on.
So, I have bought nice books with stars and orchyds and started to
learn both on a windows and a linux machine with AdaGIDE and GPS.
I was not too much impressed by AdaGIDE and got some problems with GPS
on windows so now I stick on my Linux machine with GPS and for the
moment I am glad.
That said, one can see that he absolutely must stop considering me as
a future customer as I cannot afford the money to spend on tools for
highly skilled personnel. I am just a beggar like Aqualung.
Of course, if I could impress my customers with wonderfull tools and
apps that might change...
But for the moment, I feel a lack with affordable tools and libraries.
That' all for today folks !
Tomorrow, I'll be on my Moto Guzzi with my wife riding to Corsica...
No more computers for a few days !
Best Regards
St=E9phane
