Rationale for Ada 2005
Section 6: Exceptions, generics etc
This chapter describes various improvements in
a number of general areas in Ada 2005.
There are some minor almost cosmetic improvements
in the exceptions area which add to convenience rather than functionality.
There are some important changes in the numerics area: one concerns mixing
signed and unsigned integers and another concerns fixed point multiplication
and division.
There are also a number of additional pragmas
and Restrictions identifiers mostly of a safety-related nature.
Finally there are a number of improvements in
the generics area such as better control of partial parameters of formal
packages.
