By the way, this feature is part of latest Ada (Ada 2012). In additi= on, you should think about adding precondition to other operations such as = Addition where Input1 + Input2 <=3D Integer'Last and Input1 + Input2 >=3D I= nteger'Last.=20 > > > >=20 > > > > function Division( > > > > Input1 : in Integer; > > > > Input2 : in Integer) > > > > return Integer > > > > with pre =3D> Input2 /=3D 0; > > > >=20 > > > > Anh Vo > > >=20 > > > I'm not sure that that worked.

Thus, pragma Assertion_Policy(Check) must be added at the top of t= he package specification. Absent of this pragma is equivalent to pragma Ass= ertion_Policy (Ignore). That means these conditions are ignored. By the way= , ASSERTION_ERROR exception would be raised instead of CONSTRAINT_ERROR. >=20 > This is how the body looks like now: > http://pastebin.com/Mt0E0HAD >=20 > I'm still getting a constraint error. I only saw the pragma placed inside the package body. It should be placed i= n the package specification.
