Subject: Sharing generic bodies across instantiations.
Date: Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:51:25 -0400
Date: 2010-07-26T20:51:25-04:00	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4c4e2d69$0$2378$4d3efbfe@news.sover.net> (raw)

It has been my understanding that Ada's generics are designed in such a
way as to allow implementations to share the code of a generic body
across all the instantiations. I understand that doing this might
involve a performance penalty relative to creating independent code for
each instantiation. However, I can see that there are cases where such
sharing would be desirable.

Is my understanding still accurate (was it ever accurate), for example
even with Ada 2005?

Thanks!

Peter
