John , Robert,
My intention is to create a 'temporary' file, write something into that
file, then read from that file, and finally delete the 'temporary'
file.
And I want to do that periodically - 24h a day, 7 days a week ...
The question is:
is these legal Ada code?
loop
Text_IO.Create ( File => the_file, Mode => Text_IO.OUT_File );
Text_IO.Reset ( File => the_file, Mode => Text_IO.IN_File );
Text_IO.Delete ( File => the_file );
end loop;
And the question behind that is:
Why does this code cause the Ada runtime to accumulate memory?
For me, at this time, it doesn't matter what compiler and machine.
The question is not:
What are the alternatives/better solutions to do this. ;-)

Achim
