    Hello,
    in the process of learning Ada, I came to the problem of generics and
    records. I want to instantiate a package with a record type:

    generic
     type x is private;
    package ...
    private
     type xx is new x;
    end ...

    When I want to use it:

    type myrecord is
     ...
    package somename is new seeabove(myrecord);

    I don't know if this is the correct way. The problem is, how do I make
    a component of myrecord available to the package?

    Thanks,

    andrej
