Re: Problem with generic linked list package

[Laurent <daemon2@internet.lu>]

@Simon: a lot of info to think about. Thanks
@Jeffrey: a list of objects which don'tneed any specific order is no problem. This pkg is needed in the book for a later example for implementing a generic stack. The operations required for that have been given by the author.

I was just hanging myself by thinking about a use of this pkg after the book. A thought about an program to manage my stuff at home (screws, paint, ...). So I don't know what info would put into the record. 

So I think the best idea would be to do it like the display_procedure and provide the "<" or whatever in the client program.

And of course it would depend how I would want to sort them. Name, quantity or perhaps expiry date? Have no idea?

Thanks

Laurent
