package Ada.Directories.Hierarchical_File_Names is
function Is_Simple_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if Name is a simple name, and returns False otherwise.
function Is_Root_Directory_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if Name is syntactically a root (a directory that cannot
-- be decomposed further), and returns False otherwise.
function Is_Parent_Directory_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if Name can be used to indicate symbolically the parent
-- directory of any directory, and returns False otherwise.
function Is_Current_Directory_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if Name can be used to indicate symbolically the directory
-- itself for any directory, and returns False otherwise.
function Is_Full_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if the leftmost directory part of Name is a root, and
-- returns False otherwise.
function Is_Relative_Name (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if Name allows the identification of an external file
-- (including directories and special files) but is not a full name, and
-- returns False otherwise.
function Simple_Name (Name : String) return String
renames Ada.Directories.Simple_Name;
-- Returns the simple name portion of the file name specified by Name. The
-- exception Name_Error is propagated if the string given as Name does not
-- allow the identification of an external file (including directories and
-- special files).
function Containing_Directory (Name : String) return String
renames Ada.Directories.Containing_Directory;
-- Returns the name of the containing directory of the external file
-- (including directories) identified by Name. If more than one directory
-- can contain Name, the directory name returned is implementation-defined.
-- The exception Name_Error is propagated if the string given as Name does
-- not allow the identification of an external file. The exception
-- Use_Error is propagated if the external file does not have a containing
-- directory.
function Initial_Directory (Name : String) return String;
-- Returns the leftmost directory part in Name. That is, it returns a root
-- directory name (for a full name), or one of a parent directory name, a
-- current directory name, or a simple name (for a relative name). The
-- exception Name_Error is propagated if the string given as Name does not
-- allow the identification of an external file (including directories and
-- special files).
function Relative_Name (Name : String) return String;
-- Returns the entire file name except the Initial_Directory portion. The
-- exception Name_Error is propagated if the string given as Name does not
-- allow the identification of an external file (including directories and
-- special files), or if Name has a single part (this includes if any of
-- Is_Simple_Name, Is_Root_Directory_Name, Is_Parent_Directory_Name, or
-- Is_Current_Directory_Name are True).
function Compose
(Directory : String := "";
Relative_Name : String;
Extension : String := "") return String;
-- Returns the name of the external file with the specified Directory,
-- Relative_Name, and Extension. The exception Name_Error is propagated if
-- the string given as Directory is not the null string and does not allow
-- the identification of a directory, or if Is_Relative_Name
-- (Relative_Name) is False, or if the string given as Extension is not
-- the null string and is not a possible extension, or if Extension is not
-- the null string and Simple_Name (Relative_Name) is not a base name.
--
-- The result of Compose is a full name if Is_Full_Name (Directory) is
-- True; result is a relative name otherwise.
