[comp.lang.ada] Need advise on p'address attribute

nieh@hudson.steinmetz (nico nieh) (02/14/88)

Can any one out there give me some advise ?

1. What is the 'address' attribute for ?
   Need some examples.

2. According to the ARM, If p is declared as a subprogram
   and p'address is the machine address corresponding to p.
   It seems to me that I can pass p'address to another
   subprogram and execute it there. However I don't see any proper
   syntax to do it.

3. If p is declared as a package/task, It looks like p'address is a
   meaningless (not useful) statement.
