In the object-oriented extension of Ada95 some constructs and connected type rules have been introduced that restrict the flexibility in using the whole set of features the object-oriented paradigm provides. Especially the introduction of tagged types leads to a loss of potential reuse if efficiency is of concern while the rules connected with dispatching disable full static type checking for subprogram calls. A closer investigation of these constructs and constraints reveals that some of them are completely unnecessary and some could be relaxed with minor changes of the language. With corresponding modifications, the language gains additional flexibility and becomes easier to use, while, through the introduction of multi-methods, the language regains the property of being statically type-safe.
