Greetings Tom,
xyz is an unconstrained array that is declared with a discriminant to
constrain it. Since it is of type unconstrained array I just want to know
if the RANGE attribute works eg. in a loop. I guess that you are saying
YES it does since it does have bounds. The question is if I have an
unconstrained array then I can declare many objects of that type with
different ranges, so will the RANGE attribute then return different ranges
for different objects. Is this legal?
It makes sense to me that you are correct. Also, Barnes is confusing on
the subject, page 125 of second edition, last paragraph on this topic.
