I don't want to use this stuff for my own code. My problem is that I 
want to understand object orientation in Ada. And this seems to be 
impossible without a complete understanding of access types in all flavors.

The OO chapters in Barnes' book assume that you have a deep 
understanding of access types. I don't. And therefore I'm stuck.

So would you please help me to understand this paragraph?

Regards

Michael
