Nelson,

you can turn this warnings off  by the new "pragma suppress_warnings". This
pragma turns off the warning on a per type basis. There is no "global" way,
e.g. per view or per unit. I must admit that this might be laboringly.

There are also 2 implementation defined parameters of pragma Convention
dealing with the method how parameters are passed: Ada_Pass_By_Copy and
Ada_Pass_By_Reference.

Please have a look into the 4.2 release notes for a detailed description of
these new features. If you have further questions or comments don't hesitate
to contact our support.
