J.8 Mod Clauses
Syntax
1
Static Semantics
2
3
for r use
record at mod a
...
end record;
4
is equivalent to:
5
for r'Alignment use a;
for r use
record
...
end record;
5.a
Reason: The preferred syntax for specifying
the alignment of an entity is an
attribute_definition_clause
specifying the Alignment attribute. Therefore, the special-purpose
mod_clause
syntax is now obsolete.
