This can also mean using the build system to automatically generate some 
repetitive things, to avoid having to write them manually.

Does the build system depend on anything coded in C?

So, what is the right language to use?

Indeed, I do. Btw, are you an AI? Still not exactly sure why I think that.

You named them as "critical libraries", which (as a project manager)
I'd handle as such; be sure about their quality, about certificates,
write own test cases if necessary, or demand source code for reviews
for own verification.

As already said, there's more factors than the language. An external
library is also an externality to consider, and to not consider it
(per se) as okay.

Think of a critical library as an essential part of a runtime for a 
language, perhaps? Say you create a new language that depends on certain 
things that are coded in C and/or ASM. Fair enough?

Most of the Ada code was written in C or C++ and converted to Ada for 
delivery.

Was it debugged again? Or was it assumed that the translation was bug-

With Ada, if you can get it to compile, it's ready to ship :-)

Ariane 5 rocket incident of 1996: The Ada code didn't catch the hardware
overflow exception from forcing a 64 bit floating-point value into a 16
bit integer. The situation was not expected by the code which was
developed for the Ariane 4, or something like that.

I need to study up on that one; Thanks. Fwiw, the joint strike fighter 
C++ rules are interesting to me as well. Can a little bugger make one of 
its air-to-air missiles fire? Now I can hear one of my friends saying, 
see, I told you that human programmers cannot be trusted... ;^) lol.

ADA is bullet proof... Until its not... ;^)

The language is called Ada, not ADA.

Of course no language that can be used for real work can be completely
bulletproof.  Ada is designed to be relatively safe (and neither of
these newsgroups is the place to discuss the details.)

I wonder how many people got confused?

Apparently you and Malcolm got confused.

Others who mentioned the language know it is called "Ada".  I not only 
corrected you, but gave an explanation of it, in the hope that with that 
clarity, you'd learn.

Whoever wrote this short Wikipedia article on it got confused too as it 
uses both Ada and ADA:

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_(programming_language)

(The example program also includes 'Ada' as some package name. Since it 
is case-insensitive, 'ADA' would also work.)

Here's also a paper that uses 'ADA' (I assume it is the same language):

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0166361582900136

Personally I'm not bothered whether anyone uses Ada or ADA. Is 'C' 
written in all-caps or only capitalised? You can't tell!
