Hi,

Let's say I initiate a "global" variable, A (for example an array), by
calling a procedure (which may read data from a file).  And I want to be
sure that the content (value) of this variable is not changed by
another procedure.  The variable is "global" in the sense that it is 
available in many many other routines.   

I may have several co-programmers I do not trust :-)

What is the simplest way to do this (in Ada) ?
