I think thats not quite the same. Taking the example below, how would
you do this with generics ?


package type stack is
  push (item : in ...);
  pop  (item : out ...)
end stack

procedure application is
  User_stack : stack;
  Supervisor_stack : stack;
  Interrupt_stack : stack;

  Any_Stack : access Stack;
begin
 ...
  Any_Stack := new Stack; -- how do this  ???
 ...
end application;
