<<The reason it is a very vague _report_ is that the original message was
_not_ a report. It was a question by a new to Ada programmer trying to
learn the language, and clearly stated as such.>>
Even if you are just trying to learn the language, it is a good idea to
send EXACT code,, with an EXACT description of what you saw, and why you
expected to see something else.
The trouble with vague reports is that it has often been our experience
on CLA and elsewhere, that the vagueness covers up some fundamental
misconceptions that are the real cause of the problem.
