Subject: Is this valid Ada?
Date: 8 Nov 91 05:14:47 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <37806@shamash.cdc.com> (raw)
The following code fragment compiles on two of the Ada compilers that I am
presently using. However, on two other compilers that I am using it won't
compile. The later two compilers provide an error message indicating that
the call to Is_This_Ambiguous is an ambiguous statement and references
paragraph 8.7 of the LRM.
I have read paragraph 8.7 several times and cannot find anything that leads
me to believe that this code fragment is not legal. Consequently, I don't
know which pair of compilers has a bug. If the code is legal, then the
compilers issuing the error message have a bug. If the code is illegal,
then the compilers not issuing the error message have a bug.
Anyone care to offer an opinion?
