Hi,
I am having a problem trying to get a program with an aliased variable
to compile. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious
-------------------------------------------------
procedure Al_Exp is
type Mt is array(Natural range <>) of Integer;
type H_Mt is access all Mt;
K : aliased Mt(1 .. 10);
L : H_Mt;
begin
L := K'Access;
end;
-------------------------------------------------
The error message is
gcc -c -gnatv al_exp.adb
GNAT 3.10p (970814) Copyright 1992-1997 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Compiling: al_exp.adb (source file time stamp: 1998-08-13 03:55:58)
23. L := K'Access;
|
>>> object subtype must statically match designated subtype
What's the problem here - I haven't found anything in the RM saying I
can't have general access types pointing to unconstrained arrays - the
Rationale says that arrays of pointers to strings can be created without
dynamic allocation this way, but I haven't been able to get that to work
- what am I doing wrong?
