Re: Array of Strings

[jedivaughn <jedivaughn14@gmail.com>]

If I wanted to make a package that made the array generic how would I
go about doing this. this is what I have which isn't working.

    generic

    type Element_Type is (<>);
    type range1 is (<>);


   package list is
        type letters is private;

 	private
        type letters is array (range1) of Element_Type;

end list;


and then in the main program I want

 subtype range2 is integer range 1..25;
 subtype str_length is string (1..25);

 package List1 is new List(Element_Type => str_length, range1 =>
range2 );

when I try to compile the main program I get "expect discrete type in
instantiation of "Element_Type""

what am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
John
