Hi once again,

Yesterday I encountered an issue with a thankfully range=E2=80=91check=E2=
=80=91enabled  =

compiled application, involving implicit conversion from  =

universal_integer. This occurred in an expression as an argument to a  =

function, and the range error disappeared when I added a type  =

qualification. To avoid any similar future case, I would like to flag th=
is  =

kind of implicit conversion (I know it's supposed to be safe, but seems =
it  =

was not safe with me, or else that was a GNAT bug or an error of mine  =

elsewhere I missed). I feel to remember I knew a way to make the compile=
r  =

flag implicit conversions. I don't want it with initializations, only  =

within expressions. I can't retrieve that in GNAT warning options. Some =
 =

one see what this option is? Or may be that was with AdaControl and not =
 =

GNAT? I really can't remember how I did make it flagged in the paste.
