| |
| -- This package contains low level output routines used by the compiler |
| -- for writing error messages and informational output. It is also used |
| -- by the debug source file output routines (see Sprintf.Print_Eol). |
| |
| with Types; use Types; |
| |
| package Output is |
| pragma Elaborate_Body (Output); |
| |
| type Output_Proc is access procedure (S : String); |
| -- This type is used for the Set_Special_Output procedure. If this |
| -- procedure is called, then instead of lines being written to |
| -- standard error or standard output, a call is made to the given |
| -- procedure for each line, passing the line with an end of line |
| -- character (which is a single ASCII.LF character, even in systems |
| -- which normally use CR/LF or some other sequence for line end). |
| |
| ----------------- |
| -- Subprograms -- |
| ----------------- |
| |
| procedure Set_Special_Output (P : Output_Proc); |
| -- Sets subsequent output to call procedure P. If P is null, then |
| -- the call cancels the effect of a previous call, reverting the |
| -- output to standard error or standard output depending on the |
| -- mode at the time of previous call. Any exception generated by |
| -- by calls to P is simply propagated to the caller of the routine |
| -- causing the write operation. |
| |
| procedure Cancel_Special_Output; |
| -- Cancels the effect of a call to Set_Special_Output, if any. |
| -- The output is then directed to standard error or standard output |
| -- depending on the last call to Set_Standard_Error or Set_Standard_Output. |
| -- It is never an error to call Cancel_Special_Output. It has the same |
| -- effect as calling Set_Special_Output (null). |
| |
| procedure Set_Standard_Error; |
| -- Sets subsequent output to appear on the standard error file (whatever |
| -- that might mean for the host operating system, if anything) when |
| -- no special output is in effect. When a special output is in effect, |
| -- the output will appear on standard error only after special output |
| -- has been cancelled. |
| |
| procedure Set_Standard_Output; |
| -- Sets subsequent output to appear on the standard output file (whatever |
| -- that might mean for the host operating system, if anything) when |
| -- no special output is in effect. When a special output is in effect, |
| -- the output will appear on standard output only after special output |
| -- has been cancelled. Output to standard output is the default mode |
| -- before any call to either of the Set procedures. |
| |
| procedure Write_Char (C : Character); |
| -- Write one character to the standard output file. Note that the |
| -- character should not be LF or CR (use Write_Eol for end of line) |
| |
| procedure Write_Eol; |
| -- Write an end of line (whatever is required by the system in use, |
| -- e.g. CR/LF for DOS, or LF for Unix) to the standard output file. |
| -- This routine also empties the line buffer, actually writing it |
| -- to the file. Note that Write_Eol is the only routine that causes |
| -- any actual output to be written. |
| |
| procedure Write_Int (Val : Int); |
| -- Write an integer value with no leading blanks or zeroes. Negative |
| -- values are preceded by a minus sign). |
| |
| procedure Write_Str (S : String); |
| -- Write a string of characters to the standard output file. Note that |
| -- end of line is handled separately using WRITE_EOL, so the string |
| -- should not contain either of the characters LF or CR, but it may |
| -- contain horizontal tab characters. |
| |
| procedure Write_Line (S : String); |
| -- Equivalent to Write_Str (S) followed by Write_Eol; |
| |
| function Column return Nat; |
| pragma Inline (Column); |
| -- Returns the number of the column about to be written (e.g. a value |
| -- of 1 means the current line is empty). |

| -- Debugging Procedures -- |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| -- The following procedures are intended only for debugging purposes, |
| -- for temporary insertion into the text in environments where a debugger |
| -- is not available. They all have non-standard very short lower case |
| -- names, precisely to make sure that they are only used for debugging! |
| |
| procedure w (C : Character); |
| -- Dump quote, character quote, followed by line return |
| |
| procedure w (S : String); |
| -- Dump string followed by line return |
| |
| procedure w (V : Int); |
| -- Dump integer followed by line return |
| |
| procedure w (B : Boolean); |
| -- Dump Boolean followed by line return |
| |
| procedure w (L : String; C : Character); |
| -- Dump contents of string followed by blank, quote, character, quote |
| |
| procedure w (L : String; S : String); |
| -- Dump two strings separated by blanks, followed by line return |
| |
| procedure w (L : String; V : Int); |
| -- Dump contents of string followed by blank, integer, line return |
| |
| procedure w (L : String; B : Boolean); |
| -- Dump contents of string followed by blank, Boolean, line return |
| |
| end Output; |
