I do not think Alsys has ever produced an Ada compiler which used shared
generic code. The switch you are thinking of was probably the subunit mode
switch which is something completely different, you get code duplication
either way.

Some Ada compilers do code sharing, notably RR and Rational (which only do
it this way), and Dec (where it is optional)> I think VADS can also used
shared generics, at least in some cases.
