+Syntax:

+pragma Static_Elaboration_Desired;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+This pragma is used to indicate the desire for objects declared in the library
+unit to which the pragma applies to be initialized statically. This means that
+if an object is initialized (either explicitly or by default initialization),
+then the object's value can be determined at compile time and it requires no
+code to initialize it. This generally allows the object to be allocated in
+read-only data space. A warning is issued if an object or aggregate declared
+at the top level of the package cannot be initialized statically. Additionally,
+use of this pragma will suppress the generation of loops to initialize named
+aggregates whose only choice is an others choice that specifies a component
+value known at compile time, so that it can be allocated as static data. This
+is limited to aggregates with a maximum of 100 components. (See also the
+restriction No_Implicit_Loops, which supports static allocation for larger
+aggregates.)
