-- This package contains routines for scanning decimal values where the size
-- of the type is greater than Standard.Integer'Size, for use in Text_IO.
-- Decimal_IO, and the Value attribute for such decimal types.
package System.Val_LLD is
pragma Pure (Val_LLD);
function Scan_Long_Long_Decimal
(Str : String;
Ptr : access Integer;
Max : Integer;
Scale : Integer)
return Long_Long_Integer;
-- This function scans the string starting at Str (Ptr.all) for a valid
-- real literal according to the syntax described in (RM 3.5(43)). The
-- substring scanned extends no further than Str (Max). There are three
-- cases for the return:
--
-- If a valid real literal is found after scanning past any initial spaces,
-- then Ptr.all is updated past the last character of the literal (but
-- trailing spaces are not scanned out). The value returned is the value
-- Long_Long_Integer'Integer_Value (decimal-literal-value), using the given
-- Scale to determine this value.
--
-- If no valid real literal is found, then Ptr.all points either to an
-- initial non-digit character, or to Max + 1 if the field is all spaces
-- and the exception Constraint_Error is raised.
--
-- If a syntactically valid integer is scanned, but the value is out of
-- range, or, in the based case, the base value is out of range or there
-- is an out of range digit, then Ptr.all points past the integer, and
-- Constraint_Error is raised.
--
-- Note: these rules correspond to the requirements for leaving the
-- pointer positioned in Text_Io.Get
--
-- Note: if Str is null, i.e. if Max is less than Ptr, then this is a
-- special case of an all-blank string, and Ptr is unchanged, and hence
-- is greater than Max as required in this case.
function Value_Long_Long_Decimal
(Str : String;
Scale : Integer)
return Long_Long_Integer;
-- Used in computing X'Value (Str) where X is a decimal types whose size
-- exceeds Standard.Integer'Size. Str is the string argument of the
-- attribute. Constraint_Error is raised if the string is malformed
-- or if the value is out of range, otherwise the value returned is the
-- value Long_Long_Integer'Integer_Value (decimal-literal-value), using
-- the given Scale to determine this value.
