-- Package containing the routines to process a list of discrete choices.
-- Such lists can occur in two different constructs: case statements and
-- record variants. We have factorized what used to be two very similar
-- sets of routines in one place. These are not currently used for the
-- aggregate case, since issues with nested aggregates make that case
-- substantially different.
-- The following processing is required for such cases:
-- 1. Analysis of names of subtypes, constants, expressions appearing within
-- the choices. This must be done when the construct is encountered to get
-- proper visibility of names.
-- 2. Checking for semantic correctness of the choices. A lot of this could
-- be done at the time when the construct is encountered, but not all, since
-- in the case of variants, statically predicated subtypes won't be frozen
-- (and the choice sets known) till the enclosing record type is frozen. So
-- at least the check for no overlaps and covering the range must be delayed
-- till the freeze point in this case.
-- 3. Set the Others_Discrete_Choices list for an others choice. This is
-- used in various ways, e.g. to construct the disriminant checking function
-- for the case of a variant with an others choice.
-- 4. In the case of static predicates, we need to expand out choices that
-- correspond to the predicate for the back end. This expansion destroys
-- the list of choices, so it should be delayed to expansion time. We do
-- not want to mess up the -gnatct ASIS tree, which needs to be able to
-- Step 1 is performed by the generic procedure Analyze_Choices, which is
-- called when the variant record or case statement/expression is first
-- encountered.
-- Step 2 is performed by the generic procedure Check_Choices. We decide to
-- do all semantic checking in that step, since as noted above some of this
-- has to be deferred to the freeze point in any case for variants. For case
-- statements and expressions, this procedure can be called at the time the
-- case construct is encountered (after calling Analyze_Choices).
-- Step 3 is also performed by Check_Choices, since we need the static ranges
-- for predicated subtypes to accurately construct this.
-- Step 4 is performed by the procedure Expand_Static_Predicates_In_Choices.
-- For case statements, this call only happens during expansion, so the tree
-- generated for ASIS does not have this expansion. For the Variant case, the
-- expansion is done in the ASIS -gnatct case, but with a proper Rewrite call
-- on the N_Variant node, so ASIS can retrieve the original. The reason we do
-- the expansion unconditionally for variants is that other processing, for
-- example for aggregates, relies on having a complete list of choices.
-- Historical note: We used to perform all four of these functions at once in
-- a single procedure called Analyze_Choices. This routine was called at the
-- time the construct was first encountered. That seemed to work OK up to Ada
-- 2005, but the introduction of statically predicated subtypes with delayed
-- evaluation of the static ranges made this completely wrong, both because
-- the ASIS tree got destroyed by step 4, and steps 2 and 3 were too early
-- in the variant record case.

-- part case, this is the variants, for a case expression or statement,
