Hi,

Just a silly question.

A null record can be implemented as follow:

Method 1:

type Blank is new Some_Record with null record;




Method 2:

type Blank is new Some_Record with
    record
       null;
    end record;


Which is the most popular form and why? I assume personal preference 
influences the choice.

Regards,
