Help!
Doing an assignment and have nearly finished, but have come to a
problem!
I'm using get(conv) to read input from the keyboard....this is fine,
but CONV is assigned to a type, so can't vary from the type.
The person can either enter a phrase to continue, or hit enter to exit
the program.
Is there a way of reading the line length or something so if they type
the phrase it continues or exits on return key hit.
Starts using:
type Measurement is (Ins,Mil,Cm,Km,Lbs,Kg);
package measurement_inout is new enumeration_io(measurement);
subtype Distance is Measurement range Ins..Km;
subtype Weight is Measurement range Lbs..Kg;
use measurement_inout;
Conv : Measurement;
..
..
..
loop
New_Line;
Put("Please Enter Unit to Convert From");
New_Line;
Get(Conv);
reads the CONV there...
Any ideas!
Neil.
