Subject: Help with Meridian compiler, please
Message-ID: <1993Feb4.144224.7460@goya.uu.es>
List-Id: <comp.lang.ada>

The following simple program fails to compile with the PC Meridian compiler
(both 286 and 386):

procedure w is
  a: NATURAL range 0..1:=0;
begin
  null;
end w;

However, with the addition of one blank space, it compiles OK:

procedure w is
  a: NATURAL range 0..1 :=0;
-----------------------^
begin
  null;
end w;

Am I facing a (super) weak scanner? ... Am I missing something too obvious?
(anybody from Meridian out there?)

Thanks,
Angel Alvarez
