The difference is subtle: the first means "interpret as" the other "convert to". the ' notiation is paricular usefull for contants like 1.0 or so.

But I meant data bases, narrowly understood. Also a data base is not necessarily an "external" system, Berkeley DB for example. So it is not equivalent. ...Undoubtedly. Though I am a bit sceptical about MS-ways. Just because they changed their "standards" so often that it makes almost no sense to call - Sun, Nov 28 2004 10:51 am 16 messages, 6 authors http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/bf02c238a92156a3 Access1 := new Accessed_Type; Access1 = Access2 ...?! - 2 new ------------------------------------------------------------- ...news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ...[snip] ...[snip] Hi, thanks for your answer.

Secondary pools can be allocated in the first order pool. ...I depends on what libraries you mean. Normally a well-designed library does not privately allocate anything large. So you can estimate the upper bound of heap memory required for it and then limit the heap (= the pool you - Sun, Nov 28 2004 11:41 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/46c4d6f8b5a1b798 Ariane5 FAQ, Observer's version, 8th draft - 3 new -------------------------------------------------- ...An error in the *software installation process*, not in the software. ...No, that would be an error by and in *you* (or your thought processes, to be fair! ) Software for an embedded environment cannot usually afford the luxury of checking that the environment it is installed in is appropriate.

Under cygwin I have installed gcc 3.3.3 and GNADE. I am trying to build the mysql sample but it does not recognise that mysql (and other databases) are installed on the PC, because - Sun, Nov 28 2004 7:54 am 4 messages, 4 authors http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/2b8b8a2d72b3a04c [Announce] ASIS for GNAT gcc-3.4.4-20041123 released - 3 new ------------------------------------------------------------ Hello, It has been some time since I last prepared an ASIS release.

Or might there not be some other "items" in the software development process - Mon, Nov 29 2004 1: 09 am 4 messages, 2 authors http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/ac9405996d0dcb7f GNAT Ada.Streams Bug? - 1 new ----------------------------- ... Anytime you need a certain external form you should plan on writing your own 'Read et al. It may happen to work out that the default routines supplied by the compiler do what you want, but that shouldn't be your starting assumption. Things with odd sizes likely won't work, and composite objects will be inefficient.

Section 2.1 of our TriAda paper "CLAW, a High Level, Portable, Ada 95 Binding for Microsoft Windows" at [link] has some discussion of Thin vs Thick. I think of Thickness as like insulation or padding, where more Thickness protects you from the sharp edges and holes, but has different costs. - Mon, Nov 29 2004 7:50 am 1 message, 1 author http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/a3446063322b22cb ============================================================================== You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "comp.lang.ada" group.
