Subject: Ada 9X plans for Generic Formal Packages
Date: 7 Apr 92 19:29:22 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1992Apr7.192922.24708@software.org> (raw)
A quick look at the March 92 Draft Ada 9X Project Report revealed
a new item:
S.12.1.4 Generic Formal Packages [new]
However, the accompanying description and example leaves out a
lot of detail:
o How does the generic instantiate the formal package
(named associations, etc.?)
o How are the profiles of the actual packages mapped
to the profiles of the generic formal packages?
o How will defaults work?
Can anyone point me to further information concerning this
feature. I have suggested something similar to several
people and see a great deal of power behind it--if it
really is what it appears to be: Providing generic
packages as formal parameters to generic packages!
Doug
