Perhaps "any compiler that tries to warn about unused objects". Janus/Ada
doesn't do that, so it doesn't need some facility to turn it off, either.
But I grant that if it did have such a warning, then some method to turn it
off is needed. (We have a pragma Warning_Level for turning off classes of
warnings in selective areas, nothing for individual warnings -- my
assumption has been that a warning message mught change when the compiler
gets upgraded, but the class of warning will not [unless of course there is
something else wrong].)
Randy.
