32 -- This package contains host independent type definitions which are used
33 -- in more than one unit in the compiler. They are gathered here for easy
34 -- reference, although in some cases the full description is found in the
35 -- relevant module which implements the definition. The main reason that they
36 -- are not in their "natural" specs is that this would cause a lot of inter-
37 -- spec dependencies, and in particular some awkward circular dependencies
38 -- would have to be dealt with.
40 -- WARNING: There is a C version of this package. Any changes to this source
41 -- file must be properly reflected in the C header file types.h declarations.
43 -- Note: the declarations in this package reflect an expectation that the host
44 -- machine has an efficient integer base type with a range at least 32 bits
45 -- 2s-complement. If there are any machines for which this is not a correct
46 -- assumption, a significant number of changes will be required.

56 -- General Use Integer Types --
57 -------------------------------
59 type Int is range -2 ** 31 .. +2 ** 31 - 1;
60 -- Signed 32-bit integer
62 subtype Nat is Int range 0 .. Int'Last;
63 -- Non-negative Int values
65 subtype Pos is Int range 1 .. Int'Last;
66 -- Positive Int values
68 type Word is mod 2 ** 32;

83 -- 8-Bit Character and String Types --
84 --------------------------------------
86 -- We use Standard.Character and Standard.String freely, since we are
87 -- compiling ourselves, and we properly implement the required 8-bit
88 -- character code as required in Ada 95. This section defines a few
89 -- general use constants and subtypes.
91 EOF : constant Character := ASCII.SUB;
92 -- The character SUB (16#1A#) is used in DOS and other systems derived
93 -- from DOS (XP, NT etc) to signal the end of a text file. Internally
94 -- all source files are ended by an EOF character, even on Unix systems.
95 -- An EOF character acts as the end of file only as the last character
96 -- of a source buffer, in any other position, it is treated as a blank
97 -- if it appears between tokens, and as an illegal character otherwise.
98 -- This makes life easier dealing with files that originated from DOS,
99 -- including concatenated files with interspersed EOF characters.
101 subtype Graphic_Character is Character range ' ' .. '~';
102 -- Graphic characters, as defined in ARM
104 subtype Line_Terminator is Character range ASCII.LF .. ASCII.CR;

121 -- Virtual type for handling imported big strings. Note that we should
122 -- never have any allocators for this type, but we don't give a storage

188 -- aligned, we can optimize the implementation of Get_Source_File_Index.
189 -- See this routine in Sinput for details.
191 subtype Source_Buffer is Text_Buffer;
192 -- Type used to store text of a source file. The buffer for the main
193 -- source (the source specified on the command line) has a lower bound
194 -- starting at zero. Subsequent subsidiary sources have lower bounds
195 -- which are one greater than the previous upper bound, rounded up to
196 -- a multiple of Source_Align.
198 subtype Big_Source_Buffer is Text_Buffer (0 .. Text_Ptr'Last);
199 -- This is a virtual type used as the designated type of the access type
200 -- Source_Buffer_Ptr, see Osint.Read_Source_File for details.
202 type Source_Buffer_Ptr is access all Big_Source_Buffer;
203 -- Pointer to source buffer. We use virtual origin addressing for source
204 -- buffers, with thin pointers. The pointer points to a virtual instance
205 -- of type Big_Source_Buffer, where the actual type is in fact of type
206 -- Source_Buffer. The address is adjusted so that the virtual origin
207 -- addressing works correctly. See Osint.Read_Source_Buffer for further
208 -- details. Again, as for Big_String_Ptr, we should never allocate using
209 -- this type, but we don't give a storage size clause of zero, since we

212 subtype Source_Ptr is Text_Ptr;
213 -- Type used to represent a source location, which is a subscript of a
214 -- character in the source buffer. As noted above, different source buffers
215 -- have different ranges, so it is possible to tell from a Source_Ptr value

217 -- accommodate the following special values.
219 No_Location : constant Source_Ptr := -1;

221 -- Source_Ptr value being > No_Location is the approved way to test for a
222 -- standard value that does not include No_Location or any of the following
223 -- special definitions. One important use of No_Location is to label
224 -- generated nodes that we don't want the debugger to see in normal mode
225 -- (very often we conditionalize so that we set No_Location in normal mode
226 -- and the corresponding source line in -gnatD mode).
228 Standard_Location : constant Source_Ptr := -2;
229 -- Used for all nodes in the representation of package Standard other than
230 -- nodes representing the contents of Standard.ASCII. Note that testing for
231 -- a value being <= Standard_Location tests for both Standard_Location and

262 -- an integer type Union_Id, and we ensure that the range of the various

580 -----------------------------------
582 -- All compiled units are marked with a time stamp which is derived from
583 -- the source file (we assume that the host system has the concept of a
584 -- file time stamp which is modified when a file is modified). These
585 -- time stamps are used to ensure consistency of the set of units that
586 -- constitutes a library. Time stamps are 14-character strings with
587 -- with the following format:
592 -- MM month (2 digits 01-12)
593 -- DD day (2 digits 01-31)
594 -- HH hour (2 digits 00-23)
595 -- MM minutes (2 digits 00-59)
596 -- SS seconds (2 digits 00-59)
598 -- In the case of Unix systems (and other systems which keep the time in
599 -- GMT), the time stamp is the GMT time of the file, not the local time.
600 -- This solves problems in using libraries across networks with clients
601 -- spread across multiple time-zones.

698 -- entry which is set only if an explicit Suppress for this check is given.
699 -- The reason for this non-uniformity is that we do not want All_Checks to

737 -- of Long_Long_Integer.
740 -- In this mode arbitrary precision arithmetic is used as needed to
741 -- ensure that it is impossible for intermediate arithmetic to cause an
742 -- overflow. In this mode, intermediate expressions are not affected by
743 -- the overflow checking mode, since overflows are eliminated.
745 subtype Minimized_Or_Eliminated is

769 -- Global Exception Declarations --
770 -----------------------------------
772 -- This section contains declarations of exceptions that are used
773 -- throughout the compiler or in other GNAT tools.
775 Unrecoverable_Error : exception;
776 -- This exception is raised to immediately terminate the compilation of the
777 -- current source program. Used in situations where things are bad enough
778 -- that it doesn't seem worth continuing (e.g. max errors reached, or a
779 -- required file is not found). Also raised when the compiler finds itself
780 -- in trouble after an error (see Comperr).
782 Terminate_Program : exception;
783 -- This exception is raised to immediately terminate the tool being
784 -- executed. Each tool where this exception may be raised must have a
785 -- single exception handler that contains only a null statement and that is
786 -- the last statement of the program. If needed, procedure Set_Exit_Status
787 -- is called with the appropriate exit status before raising
788 -- Terminate_Program.
790 ---------------------------------
791 -- Parameter Mechanism Control --
792 ---------------------------------
794 -- Function and parameter entities have a field that records the passing
795 -- mechanism. See specification of Sem_Mech for full details. The following
796 -- subtype is used to represent values of this type:
798 subtype Mechanism_Type is Int range -2 .. Int'Last;
799 -- Type used to represent a mechanism value. This is a subtype rather than
800 -- a type to avoid some annoying processing problems with certain routines
801 -- in Einfo (processing them to create the corresponding C). The values in
802 -- the range -2 .. 0 are used to represent mechanism types declared as
803 -- named constants in the spec of Sem_Mech. Positive values are used for
804 -- the case of a pragma C_Pass_By_Copy that sets a threshold value for the
805 -- mechanism to be used. For example if pragma C_Pass_By_Copy (32) is given
806 -- then Default_C_Record_Mechanism is set to 32, and the meaning is to use
807 -- By_Reference if the size is greater than 32, and By_Copy otherwise.
809 ------------------------------
810 -- Run-Time Exception Codes --
811 ------------------------------
813 -- When the code generator generates a run-time exception, it provides a
814 -- reason code which is one of the following. This reason code is used to
815 -- select the appropriate run-time routine to be called, determining both
816 -- the exception to be raised, and the message text to be added.
818 -- The prefix CE/PE/SE indicates the exception to be raised
819 -- CE = Constraint_Error
820 -- PE = Program_Error
821 -- SE = Storage_Error
823 -- The remaining part of the name indicates the message text to be added,
824 -- where all letters are lower case, and underscores are converted to
825 -- spaces (for example CE_Invalid_Data adds the text "invalid data").
827 -- To add a new code, you need to do the following:
829 -- 1. Assign a new number to the reason. Do not renumber existing codes,
830 -- since this causes compatibility/bootstrap issues, and problems in
831 -- the CIL/JVM backends. So always add the new code at the end of the
834 -- 2. Update the contents of the array Kind
836 -- 3. Modify the corresponding definitions in types.h, including the
837 -- definition of last_reason_code.
839 -- 4. Add the name of the routines in exp_ch11.Get_RT_Exception_Name
841 -- 5. Add a new routine in Ada.Exceptions with the appropriate call and
842 -- static string constant. Note that there is more than one version
843 -- of a-except.adb which must be modified.
845 -- Note on ordering of references. For the tables in Ada.Exceptions units,
846 -- usually the ordering does not matter, and we use the same ordering as
847 -- is used here (note the requirement in the ordering here that CE/PE/SE
848 -- codes be kept together, so the subtype declarations work OK). However,
849 -- there is an important exception, which is in a-except-2005.adb, where
850 -- ordering of the Rcheck routines must correspond to the ordering of the
851 -- Rmsg_xx messages. This is required by the .NET scripts.
