hi there,

I need to pass a "pointer" (access type?) to a procedure, to another
procedure.  The second procedure will then call the first using this
pointer.  How exactly can I do this?  Do I need to create an access type
to a procedure??  (I'm mainly not sure about the syntax...)

Actually, I also need to do this, not for a normal procedure, but for a
task's entry point.  Can I pass a "pointer" to a task's entry point? 
Again, exactly how?

Thanks heaps.  I'm doing Ada for an honours course, and just wasn't sure
how to do these things.

Much appreciated.

- Brendan Reville
