Here is an example: package pref_view is type Tg is tagged null record; procedure X (Item : Tg; Count : Integer); Object : Tg; procedure Y (Count : Integer) renames Object.X; generic with procedure Y (Count : Integer... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

Exceptions
Is there any way to force programmers to catch exception that your function throws? Something like Java forcing coders to put try/catch blocks Thanks -- Shaun ... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

g-spitbo and Ada.Tags.Tag_Table
G'day everyone And just when I thought it was just because of the Wide_Wide_ thing, I try it without all that and I get the same error. Using the following bos.gpr, bos.ads and bos.adb, I get the following error: ** bos.gpr: project BOS is for Source_Dirs use ("C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Do... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

Wide_Wide_String and Ada.Tags.Tag_Table
G'day everyone In the process of attempting to change the spitbol library into something that uses Wide_Wide_String, I've been hitting a brick wall with the following compile error: C:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1\DOCUME~1\Projects\BOS>build Building debug version of dll gcc -c -g -s -gnatn -gnatQ -gnatf -gnato -g -gnat... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

ObjectAda and Long_Long_Float
Float is predefined for any Ada compiler, i.e. it always exists. Others like Long_Float etc. are optionally predefined, i.e. might not exist on some compilers. All these predefined types' sizes are implementation dependent. Same with Integer, Short_Integer etc. Eurocopter Deutschland GmbH Sitz der Gesel... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

ObjectAda and Long_Long_Float
G'day everyone, Is it the nature of the beast that ObjectAda 7.2.2 knows nothing (or appears to) about Long_Long_Float? GNAT does. Kind regards, Bruce. ... 10 Dec 2007 00:00

DOS Options
I've been using GNAT 3.15p for a long time to write DOS-like project utiities to run on my Wintel desktop. I've just come up with a case where I'd like to implement optional parameters. Since the utility is DOS-like, I want to use the DOS form of optional parameters: attached to the name of the command, sepa... 21 Dec 2007 19:34
