Yes thanks that is clear and got my test to work.

@Adam: Sry there are moments where I am blocking on a problem
and I don't see anything around.

If I have a big generic package but I need only one function from it
but for different types. I have to instantiate the package once for every type.
Which means that there will be a lot of memory allocated for
unused things? Or is the compiler smart enough to cut the unused
parts off?

Thanks

Laurent
