Hi:
I need to code a recursive type: a Sequence which could contain
sequences of the same type. Im trying to use a generic package for that
purpouse. I provide a simplified example:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
type Elem_Type is (Nothing, Int, Seq);
type Seq_Acces;
type Seq_Elem (Const : Elem_Type := Nothing) is
record
case Const is
when Nothing => null;
when Int => I : Integer;
when Seq => S : Seq_Access;
-- "invalid use of type before its full declaration"
end case;
end record;
package Myseq is new Sequence (Element => Seq_Elem);
type Seq_Access is access Myseq.Sequence; -- provided by the generic
-- package
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any ideas about fixing it?
