Re: Command line

["Andreas" <andreasv@telia.com>]

Thanks for your answer. But, it actually didn't help. That's my fault; i
didn't specfy what my actual problem was. I'm so sorry for that.
Here i've got some code;

 procedure MyGet is
  sDate : string(1..10);
  e : exception;
 begin

   ada.exceptions.raise_exception(e'identity,"Format_Error");

 end;

procedure Test is
begin
  loop
     MyGet;
           exception
      when event: others =>
        ada.text_io.put(ada.exceptions.exception_message(event));
   end loop;
end;

"Test" is the first procedure called when i start my program. I start it
with the command line "Myprog < somedata.txt", so the data in "somedata.txt"
will be read in MyGet.

The problem here is, that i get (Using ObjectAda 7.2 at a Windows XP
machine) a compiler error. "Parse error: expected END_LOOP, got EXCEPTION,
Inserting END_LOOP".

How do i solve this?

Thanks in advance,

/Andreas
