ESSENTIAL BUG

[Tillmann Eid]

Hi there,

Although I'm very enthusiastic about Ada's possibilities and its safety,
it's just some days ago that I encoutered a real bug while compiling. I
reproduced it with this minimal code(see below)


When compiling it chrashes with this message:


###### ERROR MESSAGE ######

####### PROGRAMM CODE ######


package Compilation_Error is

   type T is task interface;
   procedure Start (S : in String) is abstract;

   task type T1 is new T with
      entry Start (S : in String);
   end T1;

end Compilation_Error;





with Ada.Text_IO;

package body Compilation_Error is

   task body T1 is
   begin
      accept Start (S : in String) do
         Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line (S);
      end Start;
   end T1;

   T_Ptr : access T'Class;

begin

   T_Ptr := new T1;
   T1 (T_Ptr).Start ("Ok, I made it!");

end Compilation_Error;

That's it - and I've no idea why it chrashes.


Thank you all in advance !

Best regards,

Tillmann
