| -- This package contains the routine used to convert strings to wide |
| -- strings for use by wide character attributes (value, image etc.) |
| |
| with System.WCh_Con; |
| |
| package System.WCh_StW is |
| pragma Pure (WCh_StW); |
| |
| function String_To_Wide_String |
| (S : String; |
| EM : System.WCh_Con.WC_Encoding_Method) |
| return Wide_String; |
| -- This routine simply takes its argument and converts it to wide string |
| -- format. In the context of the Wide_Image attribute, the argument is |
| -- the corresponding 'Image attribute. Any wide character escape sequences |
| -- in the string are converted to the corresponding wide character value. |
| -- No syntax checks are made, it is assumed that any such sequences are |
| -- validly formed (this must be assured by the caller), and results from |
| -- the fact that Wide_Image is only used on strings that have been built |
| -- by the compiler, such as images of enumeration literals. If the method |
| -- for encoding is a shift-in, shift-out convention, then it is assumed |
| -- that normal (non-wide character) mode holds at the start and end of |
| -- the argument string. EM indicates the wide character encoding method. |
| -- Note: in the WCEM_Brackets case, the brackets escape sequence is used |
| -- only for codes greater than 16#FF#. |
