question on constant arrays

[agate!spool.mu.edu!olivea!charnel!rat!koko.csustan.edu!nic.csu.net!vmsa.i s.csupomona.edu!marasigan@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU (GABRIEL MARASIGAN PA)]

    Is it possible to declare an array of record types, with a string
within the record say like in 'C': 
    struct mytype {
    	char *Name;
    	int T;
    };
    struct mytype foo[] = {{"Hi", 1}, {"There!", 2}};

    I have tried:
    	type MY_TYPE(Size : positive := 1) is
    	    record
    		Name : STRING(1..Size);
    		T    : INTEGER;
    	    end record;

    	type MY_ARRAY is array(positive range <>) of MY_TYPE;
    	Foo : constant MY_ARRAY := ((size => 2, Name => "Hi", T => 1)....) ?

    and the compiler balked at me. It seems that you can do:
    	NAME : constant STRING := "Hi";    	
    and since type STRING is declared to be: 
    	type STRING is array (positive range <>) of CHARACTER;
    the compiler shouldn't have any problems figuring out how
    many MY_TYPE records I am actually putting in my constant
    array. If it could figure it out for strings, why not for 
    MY_TYPE? Or is the problem with MY_TYPE's 'Size' need to 
    be bound before hand? Or is it because the compiler 
    'knows' that my project is due in 2 days?

    	Thanks in advance for any info.
