Yes, and also this would drop your coding style to a level of "unsage
typecasts".
(Theoretically you can cover _all_ variable types by just use a unique
string-representation and parse them at need ;-)
I think the idea of exceptions in Ada are more restrictive than in other
languages as Java. In Java it is a more or fewer "normal" exit state of any
function to raise an exception on error conditions (e.g. File not found,
Disk full, invalid xml-document etc.)
In Ada, I guess, exceptions have only to be thrown in real critical
situations, where something unpredictable have been done, as violating the
contract with a function. In this case, exception is more an assert than an
java.lang.Exception.
Am I right?
What is the real practise use of exceptions in Ada?
