Subject: References in Ada exceptions
Date: 22 Jun 93 19:04:20 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3176.2c26e734@atlas.nafb.trw.com> (raw)
[ The following is a request for information by a member of my department.
Please reply direct to my email address, and I will forward. mg.]
I seem to remember that the following is dangerous:
for i in 1..10 loop
begin
...
exception
...
put(i);
end;
end loop;
The state of the variable i cannot be guaranteed in an exception
handler. We had a problem like this on the DEC Ada compiler, and
I claim it was not a compiler bug, but a known limitation of Ada
validated compilers. Is there a formal ruling on this? We require
a hard reference. Please reply by email to mgatlin@atlas.nafb.trw.com.
Thanks.
