| -- This package contains the definitions and routines associated with the |
| -- implementation and use of the Task_Info pragma. It is specialized |
| -- appropriately for targets that make use of this pragma. |
| |
| -- Note: the compiler generates direct calls to this interface, via Rtsfind. |
| -- Any changes to this interface may require corresponding compiler changes. |
| |
| -- This unit may be used directly from an application program by providing |
| -- an appropriate WITH, and the interface can be expected to remain stable. |

| -- Implementation of Task_Info Feature -- |
| ----------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- The Task_Info pragma: |
| |
| -- pragma Task_Info (EXPRESSION); |
| |
| -- allows the specification on a task by task basis of a value of type |
| -- System.Task_Info.Task_Info_Type to be passed to a task when it is |
| -- created. The specification of this type, and the effect on the task |
| -- that is created is target dependent. |
| |
| -- The Task_Info pragma appears within a task definition (compare the |
| -- definition and implementation of pragma Priority). If no such pragma |
| -- appears, then the value Task_Info_Unspecified is passed. If a pragma |
| -- is present, then it supplies an alternative value. If the argument of |
| -- the pragma is a discriminant reference, then the value can be set on |
| -- a task by task basis by supplying the appropriate discriminant value. |
| |
| -- Note that this means that the type used for Task_Info_Type must be |
| -- suitable for use as a discriminant (i.e. a scalar or access type). |
