The only place I see this error message in the sources for 5.02a1 is a
comment in gnatmem.adb, which says:

         --  Search the executable on the path. If not found in the PATH, we
         --  default to the current directory. Otherwise, libaddr2line will
         --  fail with an error:

         --     (null): Bad address

so I guess you're getting an exception and libaddr2line is being used
to interpret the traceback?

Under these circumstances it really is time to hit the debugger.

Tagged Types ..

[Patrice Freydiere]

Hi there, 

i'm using GNAT 3.15p, on linux and i got a strange message in using an
access to tagged type

i understand this is a runtime error message ??? 


(null): Bad address

here is the context of execution ... 


         for I in As'Range loop
            declare
               Im : Ais.Image.Image_access :=
                 Ais.Image.Imagecollections.Item_at(Il,I);

               Ic : Ais.Image.Image'Class := Im.all;
            begin
               Ais.Log.Log("Image retreived");
               if Im=null then
                 Ais.Log.Log("null address  ");
               end if;
               declare
               Ba : Ada.Streams.stream_element_array
                 := Ais.image.Create_thumbnail(Ic);
               S : String( Integer(Ba'first)..Integer(Ba'last) );
            begin
               Ais.Log.Log("Add");
               for J in Ba'Range loop
                  S(Integer(J)) :=
                    Character'Val(Ada.Streams.Stream_Element'pos(Ba(J)));
               end loop;


on output i saw

Image retreived

[use@villeurbanne]$ 


i tried to put a log to the called methode (Create_thumbnail) but no log
appear ..
is this a compiler pb ... ?? 


i still had several issues using tagged typed , sometime, the bug was due
to not using intermediate variables to get tagged type ?? 

is there something wrong in my development method ? are there some
recommendation to use tagged type ?


thank's for your help!

Are you sure there are no exceptions raised? Do you mean do ran in gdb with 
"break exception" or
just that you see no exception printout. Remember with tasking enabled you 
will not get default printouts of exceptions that kill tasks...They will 
just die.

What happens here if Im = null?
