Re: is_callable(environment)?

["Jean-Pierre Rosen" <rosen.adalog@wanadoo.fr>]

I am puzzled by Robert's response here.

Every task has a task ID, and I don't think there is something in the
reference manual that says that the environment task is treated differently.

C.7.1(21) is a *note*, not an *implementation permission*. My understanding
is that it points out that if the current task is the environment task, then
calling Current_Task will return its task-ID, and therefore that it can be
used safely even with the environment task.

Therefore, I would say that the proposed program should always work.
