limited private types

[r_srinivasan@my-deja.com]

folks,

I hope someone has a reasonable suggestion for the following problem :

I am developing a file processing application that requires opening and
closing of an unspecified number of files. Ideally i would like to
build a "stack" of "files".

Currently I am using text_io package. Unfortunately the type
text_io.file_type is a "limited private" type and this means no
assignments. I have been able to get around this somewhat by using
File_access type but there is no "close" procedure that will take a
file_access.

Any and all ideas would be appreciated.

regards

srini
