package body Gnatvsn is
-- Import the string constant defined in the (language-independent)
-- source file version.c.
-- The size is a lie; we have no way of writing the truth (the size
-- is variable and depends on the actual text of the constant).
-- FIXME: It should be possible to declare this to be a constant, but
-- that is rejected by the compiler ("invalid context for deferred
-- constant declaration"). Per Ada95 this constraint only applies to
-- deferred constants completed by a full constant declaration, not
-- deferred constants completed by a pragma Import.
Version_String : array (0 .. Ver_Len_Max) of aliased Character;
pragma Import (C, Version_String, "version_string");
-- Convert that string constant to an Ada String and return it.
-- This is essentially the same as the To_Ada routine in
-- Interfaces.C; that package is not linked into gnat1 so
-- we cannot use it.
