minimal_containers VS ada_iso

Minimal Containers - These containers are modelled on the standard Bounded_Vectors and Bounded_Hashed_Maps, but have a reduced memory footprint. They were initially created for use in my ColdFrame, especially when used in a Ravenscar context on an MCU.

Work on a pair of minimal containers, to suit my ColdFrame, specifically for MCUs. This led to interesting discoveries, e.g. GCC PR 108801 (note the palindrome!) and that GCC 13.0.1 (20230129) won’t compile stm32-timers.adb at -O2 (an obscure message about GIMPLE).

Introducing Cashe: a Money library written in Ada 2022!

The purpose of Cashe is to give Money its own high-precision datatype taking advantage of Ada's fixed type decimal system[1]. This allows storing money, associated with a currency, at a defined precision with the choice of utilizing fuzzy or exact equality (see readme for more details).

It supports ISO Currencies[2] as well as Custom-defined currencies[3], and even a working Currency Exchange[4].

You can install it using Alire, which is Ada's package manager with a simple `alr with cashe`

There's quite a bit of examples in the readme, but I also gave full code examples for almost all of the functions in the API Documentation[5].

Now that I have currency working in the Ada ISO library, I'm hoping to get to languages next. I'm working on a library to implement the SimpleFIN API in Ada.

After some back and forth with the Ada Community and some drastic reworking, the first release of the Ada ISO Library is ready!
