Instead of properties I would prefer a full abstraction of record, array, access, numeric types. E.g. you declare something as a record of certain members and privately implement it as another record with other members or as anything you like providing operations to read/write the publicly declared members. I think it is a more simple and more natural to Ada model than properties. -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
