[Bug ada/39446] Can not resolve PUT between String and Character versions.

[sam at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Comment #3 from sam at gcc dot gnu dot org  2009-03-17 14:28 -------
This is not a bug. The compiler really has no way to distinguish between the
following two interpretations for "Put (Get_Name (7))":

  1- Get_Name (7) is a call to Get_Name with argument 7, which returns a String
  2- Get_Name (7) is a call to Get_Name without argument, which returns a
String, and you attempt to take the 7th character of this string, which is a
Character

Hence the ambiguity.
