Hi,

Is it possible to do something like the following?

generic
   NI : Positive;
package P is

   type IV is array (1..NI) of float;

end P;

generic
   type X is ...
package T is

type TP is record
   A : X;
end TP;

end T;

with the ability to make the type of X = type of IV? I want to
instansiate T with IV after instantiating P, but don't know what to make
X. Is there any way to avoid using an access type to hold X in the
record TP? (in the case where type x is an unconstrained array of floats).

Cheers,
Chris
