| -- This package contains the routine used to convert wide strings to |
| -- strings for use by wide character attributes (value, image etc.) and |
| -- also by the numeric IO subpackages of Ada.Text_IO.Wide_Text_IO. |
| |
| with System.WCh_Con; |
| |
| package System.WCh_WtS is |
| pragma Pure (WCh_WtS); |
| |

| (S : Wide_String; |

| return String; |
| -- This routine simply takes its argument and converts it to a string, |
| -- using the internal compiler escape sequence convention (defined in |
| -- package Widechar) to translate characters that are out of range |
| -- of type String. In the context of the Wide_Value attribute, the |
| -- argument is the original attribute argument, and the result is used |
| -- in a call to the corresponding Value attribute function. If the method |
| -- for encoding is a shift-in, shift-out convention, then it is assumed |
| -- that normal (non-wide character) mode holds at the start and end of |
| -- the result string. EM indicates the wide character encoding method. |
| -- Note: in the WCEM_Brackets case, we only use the brackets encoding |
| -- for characters greater than 16#FF#. |
