-@c OBSOLETE from the @sc{gnu} Chill compiler. Other Chill compilers are not currently

-@c OBSOLETE @node Locations
-@c OBSOLETE @subsubsection Locations and their accesses
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE A location in Chill is an object which can contain values.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE A value of a location is generally accessed by the (declared) name of
-@c OBSOLETE the location. The output conforms to the specification of values in
-@c OBSOLETE Chill programs. How values are specified
-@c OBSOLETE is the topic of the next section, @ref{Values and their Operations}.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE The pseudo-location @code{RESULT} (or @code{result}) can be used to
-@c OBSOLETE display or change the result of a currently-active procedure:
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE set result := EXPR
-@c OBSOLETE @end smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @noindent
-@c OBSOLETE This does the same as the Chill action @code{RESULT EXPR} (which
-@c OBSOLETE is not available in @value{GDBN}).
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Values of reference mode locations are printed by @code{PTR(<hex
-@c OBSOLETE value>)} in case of a free reference mode, and by @code{(REF <reference
-@c OBSOLETE mode>) (<hex-value>)} in case of a bound reference. @code{<hex value>}
-@c OBSOLETE represents the address where the reference points to. To access the
-@c OBSOLETE value of the location referenced by the pointer, use the dereference
-@c OBSOLETE operator @samp{->}.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Values of procedure mode locations are displayed by
-@c OBSOLETE @smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE @code{@{ PROC
-@c OBSOLETE (<argument modes> ) <return mode> @} <address> <name of procedure
-@c OBSOLETE location>}
-@c OBSOLETE @end smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE @code{<argument modes>} is a list of modes according to the parameter
-@c OBSOLETE specification of the procedure and @code{<address>} shows the address of
-@c OBSOLETE the entry point.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @ignore
-@c OBSOLETE Locations of instance modes are displayed just like a structure with two
-@c OBSOLETE fields specifying the @emph{process type} and the @emph{copy number} of
-@c OBSOLETE the investigated instance location@footnote{This comes from the current
-@c OBSOLETE implementation of instances. They are implemented as a structure (no
-@c OBSOLETE na). The output should be something like @code{[<name of the process>;
-@c OBSOLETE <instance number>]}.}. The field names are @code{__proc_type} and
-@c OBSOLETE @code{__proc_copy}.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Locations of synchronization modes are displayed like a structure with
-@c OBSOLETE the field name @code{__event_data} in case of a event mode location, and
-@c OBSOLETE like a structure with the field @code{__buffer_data} in case of a buffer
-@c OBSOLETE mode location (refer to previous paragraph).
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Structure Mode locations are printed by @code{[.<field name>: <value>,
-@c OBSOLETE ...]}. The @code{<field name>} corresponds to the structure mode
-@c OBSOLETE definition and the layout of @code{<value>} varies depending of the mode
-@c OBSOLETE of the field. If the investigated structure mode location is of variant
-@c OBSOLETE structure mode, the variant parts of the structure are enclosed in curled
-@c OBSOLETE braces (@samp{@{@}}). Fields enclosed by @samp{@{,@}} are residing
-@c OBSOLETE on the same memory location and represent the current values of the
-@c OBSOLETE memory location in their specific modes. Since no tag processing is done
-@c OBSOLETE all variants are displayed. A variant field is printed by
-@c OBSOLETE @code{(<variant name>) = .<field name>: <value>}. (who implements the
-@c OBSOLETE stuff ???)
-@c OBSOLETE @smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE (@value{GDBP}) print str1 $4 = [.as: 0, .bs: karli, .<TAG>: { (karli) =
-@c OBSOLETE [.cs: []], (susi) = [.ds: susi]}]

-@c OBSOLETE @end ignore
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Substructures of string mode-, array mode- or structure mode-values
-@c OBSOLETE (e.g. array slices, fields of structure locations) are accessed using
-@c OBSOLETE certain operations which are described in the next section, @ref{Values
-@c OBSOLETE and their Operations}.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE A location value may be interpreted as having a different mode using the
-@c OBSOLETE location conversion. This mode conversion is written as @code{<mode
-@c OBSOLETE name>(<location>)}. The user has to consider that the sizes of the modes
-@c OBSOLETE have to be equal otherwise an error occurs. Furthermore, no range
-@c OBSOLETE checking of the location against the destination mode is performed, and
-@c OBSOLETE therefore the result can be quite confusing.

-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @node Values and their Operations
-@c OBSOLETE @subsubsection Values and their Operations
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE Values are used to alter locations, to investigate complex structures in
-@c OBSOLETE more detail or to filter relevant information out of a large amount of
-@c OBSOLETE data. There are several (mode dependent) operations defined which enable
-@c OBSOLETE such investigations. These operations are not only applicable to
-@c OBSOLETE constant values but also to locations, which can become quite useful
-@c OBSOLETE when debugging complex structures. During parsing the command line
-@c OBSOLETE (e.g. evaluating an expression) @value{GDBN} treats location names as
-@c OBSOLETE the values behind these locations.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE This section describes how values have to be specified and which
-@c OBSOLETE operations are legal to be used with such values.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @table @code
-@c OBSOLETE @item Literal Values
-@c OBSOLETE Literal values are specified in the same manner as in @sc{gnu} Chill programs.

-@c OBSOLETE @code{'M'})
-@c OBSOLETE @item
-@c OBSOLETE @emph{Set Literals} are defined by a name which was specified in a set
-@c OBSOLETE mode. The value delivered by a Set Literal is the set value. This is
-@c OBSOLETE comparable to an enumeration in C/C@t{++} language.
-@c OBSOLETE @item
-@c OBSOLETE @emph{Emptiness Literal} is predefined by @code{NULL}. The value of the
-@c OBSOLETE emptiness literal delivers either the empty reference value, the empty
-@c OBSOLETE procedure value or the empty instance value.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item
-@c OBSOLETE @emph{Character String Literals} are defined by a sequence of characters

-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item Tuple Values
-@c OBSOLETE A tuple is specified by @code{<mode name>[<tuple>]}, where @code{<mode
-@c OBSOLETE name>} can be omitted if the mode of the tuple is unambiguous. This
-@c OBSOLETE unambiguity is derived from the context of a evaluated expression.
-@c OBSOLETE @code{<tuple>} can be one of the following:

-@c OBSOLETE @end itemize
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item String Element Value

-@c OBSOLETE @smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE @code{<string value>(<index>)}
-@c OBSOLETE @end smallexample
-@c OBSOLETE where @code{<index>} is a integer expression. It delivers a character
-@c OBSOLETE value which is equivalent to the character indexed by @code{<index>} in
-@c OBSOLETE the string.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item String Slice Value
-@c OBSOLETE A string slice value is specified by @code{<string value>(<slice
-@c OBSOLETE spec>)}, where @code{<slice spec>} can be either a range of integer
-@c OBSOLETE expressions or specified by @code{<start expr> up <size>}.
-@c OBSOLETE @code{<size>} denotes the number of elements which the slice contains.
-@c OBSOLETE The delivered value is a string value, which is part of the specified
-@c OBSOLETE string.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item Array Element Values
-@c OBSOLETE An array element value is specified by @code{<array value>(<expr>)} and

-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item Array Slice Values
-@c OBSOLETE An array slice is specified by @code{<array value>(<slice spec>)}, where
-@c OBSOLETE @code{<slice spec>} can be either a range specified by expressions or by

-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE @item Structure Field Values
-@c OBSOLETE A structure field value is derived by @code{<structure value>.<field

-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE If type and range checking are set automatically by @value{GDBN}, they
-@c OBSOLETE both default to @code{on} whenever the working language changes to
-@c OBSOLETE Chill. This happens regardless of whether you or @value{GDBN}
-@c OBSOLETE selected the working language.
-@c OBSOLETE
-@c OBSOLETE If you allow @value{GDBN} to set the language automatically, then entering
-@c OBSOLETE code compiled from a file whose name ends with @file{.ch} sets the
-@c OBSOLETE working language to Chill. @xref{Automatically, ,Having @value{GDBN} set
-@c OBSOLETE the language automatically}, for further details.
