Hello,
Container type UX is declared as:
type UX is tagged private with
Constant_Indexing => Constant_Reference, Variable_Indexing =>
Reference, Default_Iterator => Iterate,
Iterator_Element => Character,
Aggregate => (Empty => Empty, Add_Unnamed => Append, New_Indexed
=> New_Vector, Assign_Indexed => Replace_Element);
I declare:
S3 : UX;
...
80. for I in S3.Iterate loop
82. if F then
83. S3(I) := 'e';
84. end if;
85. C := S3 (I);
87. end loop;
GNAT 15 issues the errors:
test.adb:83:10: error: container cannot be indexed with "Cursor"
test.adb:85:14: error: container cannot be indexed with "Cursor"
Prior GNAT versions didn't issued any errors.
Is there a change in Ada standard? or GNAT?
Why is cursor indexing not possible?
Thanks for your answers, Pascal.
