ASIS: Recognising type declarations from package Standard?

ASIS: Recognising type declarations from package Standard?

[Jacob Sparre Andersen]

I'm working on an ASIS tool, where I want to treat subtypes of
Standard.String.  But how can I identify types declared in package
Standard with ASIS?

Using ASIS-4-GNAT, Asis.Text.Element_Image returns "" for an element
representing Standard.String. - I can see that it is an unconstrained
array type (like Standard.Wide_String), but nothing more than that.

Greetings,

Jacob

??? This should work... Search for "STANDARD" in the sources of
AdaControl, you'll find several places where it works.

I must be doing something wrong, then.  I'll take a look.

Thanks!
