object(<>)

[convergence82 <tiamiata@gmail.com>]

what does this mean?  Does it mean that I can call joemontana
( anytype)?

-------------------------jeffrey.ads
  type Cd is ..........
  package Convert_Cd is new joemontana(Cd);   --====> does this mean
I'm instantiating the
 
--           generic package joemontana for the type 'Cd'?

-------------------------jeffrey.adb
with_cd : System.Address
  x := Convert_Cd.To_Pointer( with_cd);

-------------------------joemontana.spc
generic
  type Object(<>) is limited private;
package joemontana is
  type Object_Pointer is access all Object;
  ...
  function To_Pointer(Value : System.Address) return Object_Pointer;
  ...
end joemontana;
