I'm thinking only of a limited form.
Like writing:
type FILTER_TYPE is access function (S: in STRING) return STRING;
FILTER: FILTER_TYPE := ( TO_BASIC( TO_LOWER ) )'Access
Not sure of the syntax though. Could it done one way or another ? Since the language is taking a slightly functional approach.
I know my exemple can be done otherwise, but it means more lines to maintain, blablabla. Or maybe convoluted use of nesting functions into functions, are in fact so rare it's not worth it.
