-- This package contains functions for runtime comparisons on arrays whose
-- elements are 16-bit discrete type values to be treated as signed.
package System.Compare_Array_Signed_16 is
-- Note: although the functions in this package are in a sense Pure, the
-- package cannot be declared as Pure, since the arguments are addresses,
-- not the data, and the result is not pure wrt the address values.
function Compare_Array_S16
(Left : System.Address;
Right : System.Address;
Left_Len : Natural;
Right_Len : Natural) return Integer;
-- Compare the array starting at address Left of length Left_Len
-- with the array starting at address Right of length Right_Len.
-- The comparison is in the normal Ada semantic sense of array
-- comparison. The result is -1,0,+1 for Left<Right, Left=Right,
-- Left>Right respectively. This function works with 4 byte words
-- if the operands are aligned on 4-byte boundaries and long enough.
