Unchecked_Conversion

["Lele" <e.benazzato@dsae.finmeccanica.it>]

Hi!
I'm a misterious reader...just because I've read for a month this NG without
take part.
I'm a beginner ADA programmer (what a wonderful language!) and I've a
problem...

I should convert data types and record data types from one type to another,
since now I've
used the address attribute to point the same memory space and so accede to
from one type
to another. Ada provides features for bypassing certain language
restrictions and these
features are unchecked; it is the programmer's responsibility to make sure
that they do
not violate the assumptions of the rest of the program. Are there particular
risks about using Unchecked_Conversion? Is it a better approach  the address
attribute?

Thanks!
