Hey all,

I have a question.... (Ada 83)

Let's say you have TEST_TYPE (one, three, five) uses (one => 1,
three => 3, five => 5).

How can I, without using UNCHECKED_CONVERSION get an INTEGER 1,3,5
converted to the correct value of TEST_TYPE?

Can't do it using <'val>  TEST_TYPE'val(1) eval's to three.
Incidentally <'pos> is screwy  TEST_TYPE'pos(one) eval's to 0.

I probably am asking a silly question... 

Gerhard.
