Hi

Running on windows XP with GNAT GPL 2009 and the Asych Transfer of
Control select
statement does not appear to work as I thought it should. The code is
        SELECT
            DELAY Deadline;
            Put_Line("Overrun");
         THEN ABORT
            Do_Stuff;
         END SELECT;

If Do_Stuff overruns the deadline, the Overrun message is displayed,
but only after
the procedure Do_Stuff completes. Do_Stuff is not terminated  when the
deadline
expires. I expected it would. Am I missing something here?

Thanks, Dave
