: There's another way to make the fix, by manually sliding the initial substring:
: declare
: type AT is array (Positive range 1 .. 100) of Integer;
: SA : AT;
: DA : AT;
: subtype Slided is AT (1 .. 50);
Now *this* is not legal Ada (83 or 95). You can't re-constrain
a constrained array (sub)type.
: begin
: ...
: DA := Slided (SA (51 .. 100)) & SA (1 .. 50);
: end;
: In Ada 83 the 2nd substring will be automatically slided.
Only if you can convince the compiler to accept the declaration
for "Slided" (sic).
By the way, I prefer the word "slid" ;-).
