[comp.object] Translating Smalltalk to Classic-Ada

sdl@linus.mitre.org (Steven D. Litvinchouk) (07/03/90)

Does anyone know of a tool that can help automate the translation of
Smalltalk code to Classic-Ada code?

Failing that, does anyone have any guidelines on how the (manual)
translation process from Smalltalk to Classic-Ada can be made easier
and more systematic?  

Failing that, has anyone translated any of the predefined Smalltalk
classes to Classic-Ada, or developed any functional equivalents?  If
so, would they be willing to share them with the rest of us?
Classic-Ada analogues of the Smalltalk Collection class hierarchy
(there are 35 predefined subclasses of Collection in ParcPlace
Objectworks) would be most helpful.

Thanx in advance!
