Subject: Change to obscure visibility rule in 9x
Date: 18 Oct 1994 13:44:58 GMT
Date: 1994-10-18T13:44:58+00:00	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <GRAHAM.94Oct18094458@clsi.clsi.COM> (raw)


Why did Ada 83 have this rule, and why did 9x eliminate it?

    8.3(16) Within the specification of a subprogram, every declaration
    with the same designator as the subprogram is hidden ... where
    hidden in this manner, a declaration is visible neither by selection
    nor directly.
