ELKS 2002 standard (under discussion)

• Proposed changes from ELKS 2000 to ELKS 2002
• Draft ELKS 2002 specification under development

ELKS 2000 standard (adopted)

• ELKS 2000 proposal submitted to the NICE Board on 22 March 2000
• Changes from ELKS 1995 to ELKS 2000

ELKS 1995 standard (superseded)

• The Eiffel Library Standard, Vintage 95 (4 June 1995, version 8)

Implementations

• ISE Eiffel version 5.0, version 4.4.004, version 4.5
• Halstenbach Eiffel 3.1
• SmallEiffel -0.77
• Visual Eiffel 3.2 beta
• a comparison table, also including array routines from the Gobo library

Principles

• Generally accepted:
• The specification will use the current version of the Eiffel language.
• It should be possible to use the class without knowledge of capacity; it should be possible to maximise performance by use of capacity.
• It is not required for a conforming kernel class to actually execute these assertions, provided its behaviour is consistent with them.
