Annex B
(normative)
Interface to Other Languages
1
This
Annex describes features for writing mixed-language programs. General
interface support is presented first; then specific support for C, COBOL,
and Fortran is defined, in terms of language interface packages for each
of these languages.
1.a
Ramification: This Annex
is not a ``Specialized Needs'' annex. Every implementation must support
all non-optional features defined here (mainly the package Interfaces).
Language Design Principles
1.b
Ada should have strong support
for mixed-language programming.
Extensions to Ada 83
1.c
Much of the
functionality in this Annex is new to Ada 95.
Wording Changes from Ada 83
1.d

to be RM83-13.8.
