Description : SPARK programming language toolset (Ada 2012-style)
SPARK is a formally-defined computer programming language based on the
Ada programming language, intended to be secure and to support the
development of high integrity software used in applications and systems
where predictable and highly reliable operation is essential either for
reasons of safety or for business integrity.
.
This package contains the tools necessary for checking if programs adhere
to the SPARK rules and the tools to show freedom of runtime exceptions in
those programs. To compile SPARK programs use any standards-compliant Ada
compiler, such as GNAT.
.
This is a new toolset that uses Ada 2012-style contracts, instead of
the stylized comments in previous versions, to provide specifications
of programs. For "classic" SPARK toolchain, install spark packet.
This is a new verion of SPARK that is rather different from previous
versions, so I think it makes sence to package it as a separate package.
