Singo Solution Selects AdaCore Products

The Ada programming language and GNAT Pro Development Environment from AdaCore have been selected by Singo Solution, Inc., a global provider of specialized call-center solutions.

GNAT Pro is a robust and flexible Ada development environment. It includes professional grade tools, unmatched product support and expert Ada advice.

Ada detects at compile time many errors that would only be found during testing and integration in a language such as C as a strongly typed language. Instead of trying to figure out why things aren’t working, this allows developers to spend their time enhancing the core software with new features and functions. One of Ada’s distinguishing features is its support for concurrency, the company has stated.

“Singo finds magic bullet to program Blaze system!’ Well not exactly, there are no magic bullets in the programming world despite many claims,” said Robert Dewar, AdaCore president and CEO. “What they did discover (or rediscover) was that the Ada language and the GNAT Pro toolset built around it made a big difference. Singo has become an enthusiastic Ada supporter after finding that using Ada reduced the effort to build the product compared with competitors using other languages, and they successfully implemented a call-management system.”

Singo selected AdaCore’s GNAT Pro Ada Development Environment to implement the Blaze Call Management System. To handle very large systems, the GNAT Pro product offers a modern, professional software build environment and tool-chain. Most importantly, GNAT Pro is backed by expert support services provided by the product developers themselves, the company stated.

Recently, the company announced the release of CodePeer 2.0, the advanced source code analysis tool that helps developers detect potential run-time and logic errors in Ada programs. CodePeer 2.0 also comes with a number of complementary static analysis tools common to the GNAT Pro technology - a coding standard verification tool (GNATcheck), a program metric generator (GNATmetric), a semantic analyzer, and a document generator that can be invoked through the GNAT Programming Studio (GPS) Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
