Subject: Quick question regarding limited type return syntax

Message-ID: <166aaec5-5e9c-40e0-9b07-9b9c7d5f7f33@googlegroups.com> (raw)
I am designing a package which features a "Create" function that returns a newly instantiated "Object" which is a discriminated limited type. The code compiles and operates correctly but gives me a warning that "New_Object" is not used. See below (ellipses represent omitted code):
-----
package Test is
type Object (Parameters : access String) is tagged limited private;
function Create (...) return Object;
...
private
type Object (Parameters : access String) is tagged limited
record
Database : PQ.Database (Parameters);
...
end record;
...
end Test;
package body Test is
function Create(...) return Object is
...
begin
return New_Object : Object (Connection_String'Access) do
null;
end return;
end;
...
end Test;
-----
To remove this warning I've tried this:
return Object (Connection_String'Access) do null; end return;
and it gives an error about expecting a ';'. I've also tried this:
return Object (Connection_String'Access);
Compiler tells me "argument of conversion cannot be access".
I have tried other syntax variants but all produce errors. My goal here is to avoid using "new" which is why I am trying to return the instance in this way.
How can I rewrite this code so that I won't get any errors or warnings?
