You would say instead:

 if X in Integer then

See section 4.5.2 of the Ada Language Reference Manual.

Subject: (elementary question) Test on type ?


Hi,
 
is it possible in Ada to test on type ? (did not manage to find out)
 
 
Assume:
 
 
-- specification :
generic
  type T is (<>);
function F(X : T) return Float;
 
--body :
 
function F(X : T) return Float is
begin
 
if Type(X) = Integer then  ??????
   something...
 
I := integer(X) ????
 
 
end;
 
--application prog:
 
function F1 is new F(T => Integer);
