with Unchecked_Deallocation;
package Types is
pragma Preelaborate (Types);
-- This package contains host independent type definitions which are used
-- in more than one unit in the compiler. They are gathered here for easy
-- reference, though in some cases the full description is found in the
-- relevant module which implements the definition. The main reason that
-- they are not in their "natural" specs is that this would cause a lot of
-- inter-spec dependencies, and in particular some awkward circular
-- dependencies would have to be dealt with.
-- WARNING: There is a C version of this package. Any changes to this
-- source file must be properly reflected in the C header file a-types.h
-- Note: the declarations in this package reflect an expectation that the
-- host machine has an efficient integer base type with a range at least
-- 32 bits 2s-complement. If there are any machines for which this is not
-- a correct assumption, a significant number of changes will be required!
-------------------------------
-- General Use Integer Types --
-------------------------------
type Int is range -2 ** 31 .. +2 ** 31 - 1;
-- Signed 32-bit integer
type Dint is range -2 ** 63 .. +2 ** 63 - 1;
-- Double length (64-bit) integer
subtype Nat is Int range 0 .. Int'Last;
-- Non-negative Int values
subtype Pos is Int range 1 .. Int'Last;
-- Positive Int values
type Word is mod 2 ** 32;
-- Unsigned 32-bit integer
type Short is range -32768 .. +32767;
for Short'Size use 16;
-- 16-bit signed integer
type Byte is mod 2 ** 8;
for Byte'Size use 8;
-- 8-bit unsigned integer
type size_t is mod 2 ** Standard'Address_Size;
-- Memory size value, for use in calls to C routines
--------------------------------------
-- 8-Bit Character and String Types --
--------------------------------------
-- We use Standard.Character and Standard.String freely, since we are
-- compiling ourselves, and we properly implement the required 8-bit
-- character code as required in Ada 95. This section defines a few
-- general use constants and subtypes.
EOF : constant Character := ASCII.SUB;
-- The character SUB (16#1A#) is used in DOS and other systems derived
-- from DOS (OS/2, NT etc) to signal the end of a text file. Internally
-- all source files are ended by an EOF character, even on Unix systems.
-- An EOF character acts as the end of file only as the last character
-- of a source buffer, in any other position, it is treated as a blank
-- if it appears between tokens, and as an illegal character otherwise.
-- This makes life easier dealing with files that originated from DOS,
-- including concatenated files with interspersed EOF characters.
subtype Graphic_Character is Character range ' ' .. '~';
-- Graphic characters, as defined in ARM
subtype Line_Terminator is Character range ASCII.LF .. ASCII.CR;
-- Line terminator characters (LF, VT, FF, CR)
subtype Upper_Half_Character is
Character range Character'Val (16#80#) .. Character'Val (16#FF#);
-- Characters with the upper bit set
type Character_Ptr is access all Character;
type String_Ptr is access all String;
-- Standard character and string pointers
procedure Free is new Unchecked_Deallocation (String, String_Ptr);
-- Procedure for freeing dynamically allocated String values
subtype Word_Hex_String is String (1 .. 8);
-- Type used to represent Word value as 8 hex digits, with lower case
-- letters for the alphabetic cases.
function Get_Hex_String (W : Word) return Word_Hex_String;
-- Convert word value to 8-character hex string
-----------------------------------------
-- Types Used for Text Buffer Handling --
-----------------------------------------
-- We can't use type String for text buffers, since we must use the
-- standard 32-bit integer as an index value, since we count on all
-- index values being the same size.
type Text_Ptr is new Int;
-- Type used for subscripts in text buffer
type Text_Buffer is array (Text_Ptr range <>) of Character;
-- Text buffer used to hold source file or library information file
type Text_Buffer_Ptr is access all Text_Buffer;
-- Text buffers for input files are allocated dynamically and this type
-- is used to reference these text buffers.
procedure Free is new Unchecked_Deallocation (Text_Buffer, Text_Buffer_Ptr);
-- Procedure for freeing dynamically allocated text buffers
------------------------------------------
-- Types Used for Source Input Handling --
------------------------------------------
type Logical_Line_Number is range 0 .. Int'Last;
for Logical_Line_Number'Size use 32;
-- Line number type, used for storing logical line numbers (i.e. line
-- numbers that include effects of any Source_Reference pragmas in the
-- source file). The value zero indicates a line containing a source
-- reference pragma.
No_Line_Number : constant Logical_Line_Number := 0;
-- Special value used to indicate no line number
type Physical_Line_Number is range 1 .. Int'Last;
for Physical_Line_Number'Size use 32;
-- Line number type, used for storing physical line numbers (i.e.
-- line numbers in the physical file being compiled, unaffected by
-- the presence of source reference pragmas.
type Column_Number is range 0 .. 32767;
for Column_Number'Size use 16;
-- Column number (assume that 2**15 is large enough, see declaration
-- of Hostparm.Max_Line_Length)
No_Column_Number : constant Column_Number := 0;
-- Special value used to indicate no column number
subtype Source_Buffer is Text_Buffer;
-- Type used to store text of a source file . The buffer for the main
-- source (the source specified on the command line) has a lower bound
-- starting at zero. Subsequent subsidiary sources have lower bounds
-- which are one greater than the previous upper bound.
subtype Big_Source_Buffer is Text_Buffer (0 .. Text_Ptr'Last);
-- This is a virtual type used as the designated type of the access
-- type Source_Buffer_Ptr, see Osint.Read_Source_File for details.
type Source_Buffer_Ptr is access all Big_Source_Buffer;
-- Pointer to source buffer. We use virtual origin addressing for
-- source buffers, with thin pointers. The pointer points to a virtual
-- instance of type Big_Source_Buffer, where the actual type is in fact
-- of type Source_Buffer. The address is adjusted so that the virtual
-- origin addressing works correctly. See Osint.Read_Source_Buffer for
-- further details.
subtype Source_Ptr is Text_Ptr;
-- Type used to represent a source location, which is a subscript of a
-- character in the source buffer. As noted above, diffferent source
-- buffers have different ranges, so it is possible to tell from a
-- Source_Ptr value which source it refers to. Note that negative numbers
-- are allowed to accommodate the following special values.
No_Location : constant Source_Ptr := -1;
-- Value used to indicate no source position set in a node
Standard_Location : constant Source_Ptr := -2;
-- Used for all nodes in the representation of package Standard other
-- than nodes representing the contents of Standard.ASCII. Note that
-- testing for <= Standard_Location tests for both Standard_Location
-- and for Standard_ASCII_Location.
Standard_ASCII_Location : constant Source_Ptr := -3;
-- Used for all nodes in the presentation of package Standard.ASCII
First_Source_Ptr : constant Source_Ptr := 0;
-- Starting source pointer index value for first source program
-------------------------------------
-- Range Definitions for Tree Data --
-------------------------------------
-- The tree has fields that can hold any of the following types:
-- Pointers to other tree nodes (type Node_Id)
-- List pointers (type List_Id)
-- Element list pointers (type Elist_Id)
-- Names (type Name_Id)
-- Strings (type String_Id)
-- Universal integers (type Uint)
-- Universal reals (type Ureal)
-- Character codes (type Char_Code stored with a bias)
-- In most contexts, the strongly typed interface determines which of
-- these types is present. However, there are some situations (involving
-- untyped traversals of the tree), where it is convenient to be easily
-- able to distinguish these values. The underlying representation in all
-- cases is an integer type Union_Id, and we ensure that the range of
-- the various possible values for each of the above types is disjoint
-- so that this distinction is possible.
type Union_Id is new Int;
-- The type in the tree for a union of possible ID values
-- Note: it is also helpful for debugging purposes to make these ranges
-- distinct. If a bug leads to misidentification of a value, then it will
-- typically result in an out of range value and a Constraint_Error.
List_Low_Bound : constant := -100_000_000;
-- The List_Id values are subscripts into an array of list headers which
-- has List_Low_Bound as its lower bound. This value is chosen so that all
-- List_Id values are negative, and the value zero is in the range of both
-- List_Id and Node_Id values (see further description below).
List_High_Bound : constant := 0;
-- Maximum List_Id subscript value. This allows up to 100 million list
-- Id values, which is in practice infinite, and there is no need to
-- check the range. The range overlaps the node range by one element
-- (with value zero), which is used both for the Empty node, and for
-- indicating no list. The fact that the same value is used is convenient
-- because it means that the default value of Empty applies to both nodes
-- and lists, and also is more efficient to test for.
Node_Low_Bound : constant := 0;
-- The tree Id values start at zero, because we use zero for Empty (to
-- allow a zero test for Empty). Actual tree node subscripts start at 0
-- since Empty is a legitimate node value.
Node_High_Bound : constant := 099_999_999;
-- Maximum number of nodes that can be allocated is 100 million, which
-- is in practice infinite, and there is no need to check the range.
Elist_Low_Bound : constant := 100_000_000;
-- The Elist_Id values are subscripts into an array of elist headers which
-- has Elist_Low_Bound as its lower bound.
Elist_High_Bound : constant := 199_999_999;
-- Maximum Elist_Id subscript value. This allows up to 100 million Elists,
-- which is in practice infinite and there is no need to check the range.
Elmt_Low_Bound : constant := 200_000_000;
-- Low bound of element Id values. The use of these values is internal to
-- the Elists package, but the definition of the range is included here
-- since it must be disjoint from other Id values. The Elmt_Id values are
-- subscripts into an array of list elements which has this as lower bound.
Elmt_High_Bound : constant := 299_999_999;
-- Upper bound of Elmt_Id values. This allows up to 100 million element
-- list members, which is in practice infinite (no range check needed).
Names_Low_Bound : constant := 300_000_000;
-- Low bound for name Id values
Names_High_Bound : constant := 399_999_999;
-- Maximum number of names that can be allocated is 100 million, which is
-- in practice infinite and there is no need to check the range.
Strings_Low_Bound : constant := 400_000_000;
-- Low bound for string Id values
Strings_High_Bound : constant := 499_999_999;
-- Maximum number of strings that can be allocated is 100 million, which
-- is in practice infinite and there is no need to check the range.
Ureal_Low_Bound : constant := 500_000_000;
-- Low bound for Ureal values.
Ureal_High_Bound : constant := 599_999_999;
-- Maximum number of Ureal values stored is 100_000_000 which is in
-- practice infinite so that no check is required.
Uint_Low_Bound : constant := 600_000_000;
-- Low bound for Uint values.
Uint_Table_Start : constant := 2_000_000_000;
-- Location where table entries for universal integers start (see
-- Uintp spec for details of the representation of Uint values).
Uint_High_Bound : constant := 2_099_999_999;
-- The range of Uint values is very large, since a substantial part
-- of this range is used to store direct values, see Uintp for details.
Char_Code_Bias : constant := 2_100_000_000;
-- A bias value added to character code values stored in the tree which
-- ensures that they have different values from any of the above types.
-- The following subtype definitions are used to provide convenient names
-- for membership tests on Int values to see what data type range they
-- lie in. Such tests appear only in the lowest level packages.
subtype List_Range is Union_Id

-- Types for Namet Package --
-----------------------------
-- Name_Id values are used to identify entries in the names table. Except
-- for the special values No_Name, and Error_Name, they are subscript
-- values for the Names table defined in package Namet.
-- Note that with only a few exceptions, which are clearly documented, the
-- type Name_Id should be regarded as a private type. In particular it is
-- never appropriate to perform arithmetic operations using this type.
type Name_Id is range Names_Low_Bound .. Names_High_Bound;
for Name_Id'Size use 32;
-- Type used to identify entries in the names table
No_Name : constant Name_Id := Names_Low_Bound;
-- The special Name_Id value No_Name is used in the parser to indicate
-- a situation where no name is present (e.g. on a loop or block).
Error_Name : constant Name_Id := Names_Low_Bound + 1;
-- The special Name_Id value Error_Name is used in the parser to
-- indicate that some kind of error was encountered in scanning out
-- the relevant name, so it does not have a representable label.
First_Name_Id : constant Name_Id := Names_Low_Bound + 2;
-- Subscript of first entry in names table
----------------------------
-- Types for Atree Package --
----------------------------
-- Node_Id values are used to identify nodes in the tree. They are
-- subscripts into the Node table declared in package Tree. Note that
-- the special values Empty and Error are subscripts into this table,
-- See package Atree for further details.
type Node_Id is range Node_Low_Bound .. Node_High_Bound;
-- Type used to identify nodes in the tree
subtype Entity_Id is Node_Id;
-- A synonym for node types, used in the entity package to refer to
-- nodes that are entities (i.e. nodes with an Nkind of N_Defining_xxx)
-- All such nodes are extended nodes and these are the only extended
-- nodes, so that in practice entity and extended nodes are synonymous.
subtype Node_Or_Entity_Id is Node_Id;
-- A synonym for node types, used in cases where a given value may be used
-- to represent either a node or an entity. We like to minimize such uses
-- for obvious reasons of logical type consistency, but where such uses
-- occur, they should be documented by use of this type.
Empty : constant Node_Id := Node_Low_Bound;
-- Used to indicate null node. A node is actually allocated with this
-- Id value, so that Nkind (Empty) = N_Empty. Note that Node_Low_Bound
-- is zero, so Empty = No_List = zero.
Empty_List_Or_Node : constant := 0;
-- This constant is used in situations (e.g. initializing empty fields)
-- where the value set will be used to represent either an empty node
-- or a non-existent list, depending on the context.
Error : constant Node_Id := Node_Low_Bound + 1;
-- Used to indicate that there was an error in the source program. A node
-- is actually allocated at this address, so that Nkind (Error) = N_Error.
Empty_Or_Error : constant Node_Id := Error;
-- Since Empty and Error are the first two Node_Id values, the test for
-- N <= Empty_Or_Error tests to see if N is Empty or Error. This definition
-- provides convenient self-documentation for such tests.
First_Node_Id : constant Node_Id := Node_Low_Bound;
-- Subscript of first allocated node. Note that Empty and Error are both
-- allocated nodes, whose Nkind fields can be accessed without error.
------------------------------
-- Types for Nlists Package --
------------------------------
-- List_Id values are used to identify node lists in the tree. They are
-- subscripts into the Lists table declared in package Tree. Note that
-- the special value Error_List is a subscript in this table, but the
-- value No_List is *not* a valid subscript, and any attempt to apply
-- list operations to No_List will cause a (detected) error.
type List_Id is range List_Low_Bound .. List_High_Bound;
-- Type used to identify a node list
No_List : constant List_Id := List_High_Bound;
-- Used to indicate absence of a list. Note that the value is zero, which
-- is the same as Empty, which is helpful in initializing nodes where a
-- value of zero can represent either an empty node or an empty list.
Error_List : constant List_Id := List_Low_Bound;
-- Used to indicate that there was an error in the source program in a
-- context which would normally require a list. This node appears to be
-- an empty list to the list operations (a null list is actually allocated
-- which has this Id value).
First_List_Id : constant List_Id := Error_List;
-- Subscript of first allocated list header
------------------------------
-- Types for Elists Package --
------------------------------
-- Element list Id values are used to identify element lists stored in
-- the tree (see package Tree for further details). They are formed by
-- adding a bias (Element_List_Bias) to subscript values in the same
-- array that is used for node list headers.
type Elist_Id is range Elist_Low_Bound .. Elist_High_Bound;
-- Type used to identify an element list (Elist header table subscript)
No_Elist : constant Elist_Id := Elist_Low_Bound;
-- Used to indicate absense of an element list. Note that this is not
-- an actual Elist header, so element list operations on this value
-- are not valid.
First_Elist_Id : constant Elist_Id := No_Elist + 1;
-- Subscript of first allocated Elist header.
-- Element Id values are used to identify individual elements of an
-- element list (see package Elists for further details).
type Elmt_Id is range Elmt_Low_Bound .. Elmt_High_Bound;
-- Type used to identify an element list
No_Elmt : constant Elmt_Id := Elmt_Low_Bound;
-- Used to represent empty element
First_Elmt_Id : constant Elmt_Id := No_Elmt + 1;
-- Subscript of first allocated Elmt table entry
-------------------------------
-- Types for Stringt Package --
-------------------------------
-- String_Id values are used to identify entries in the strings table.
-- They are subscripts into the strings table defined in package Strings.
-- Note that with only a few exceptions, which are clearly documented, the
-- type String_Id should be regarded as a private type. In particular it is
-- never appropriate to perform arithmetic operations using this type.
type String_Id is range Strings_Low_Bound .. Strings_High_Bound;
-- Type used to identify entries in the strings table
No_String : constant String_Id := Strings_Low_Bound;
-- Used to indicate missing string Id. Note that the value zero is used
-- to indicate a missing data value for all the Int types in this section.
First_String_Id : constant String_Id := No_String + 1;
-- First subscript allocated in string table
-------------------------
-- Character Code Type --
-------------------------
-- The type Char is used for character data internally in the compiler,
-- but character codes in the source are represented by the Char_Code
-- type. Each character literal in the source is interpreted as being one
-- of the 2**16 possible Wide_Character codes, and a unique integer value
-- is assigned, corresponding to the POS value in the Wide_Character type.
-- String literals are similarly interpreted as a sequence of such codes.
-- Note: when character code values are stored in the tree, they are stored
-- by adding a bias value (Char_Code_Bias) that results in values that can
-- be distinguished from other types of values stored in the tree.
type Char_Code is mod 2 ** 16;
for Char_Code'Size use 16;
function Get_Char_Code (C : Character) return Char_Code;
pragma Inline (Get_Char_Code);
-- Function to obtain internal character code from source character. For
-- the moment, the internal character code is simply the Pos value of the
-- input source character, but we provide this interface for possible
-- later support of alternative character sets.
function In_Character_Range (C : Char_Code) return Boolean;
pragma Inline (In_Character_Range);
-- Determines if the given character code is in range of type Character,
-- and if so, returns True. If not, returns False.
function Get_Character (C : Char_Code) return Character;
pragma Inline (Get_Character);
-- For a character C that is in character range (see above function), this
-- function returns the corresponding Character value. It is an error to
-- call Get_Character if C is not in character range
---------------------------------------
-- Types used for Library Management --
---------------------------------------
type Unit_Number_Type is new Int;
-- Unit number. The main source is unit 0, and subsidiary sources have
-- non-zero numbers starting with 1. Unit numbers are used to index the
-- file table in Lib.
Main_Unit : constant Unit_Number_Type := 0;
-- Unit number value for main unit
No_Unit : constant Unit_Number_Type := -1;
-- Special value used to signal no unit
type Source_File_Index is new Nat;
-- Type used to index the source file table (see package Sinput)
No_Source_File : constant Source_File_Index := 0;
-- Value used to indicate no source file present
System_Source_File_Index : constant Source_File_Index := 1;
-- Value used for source file table entry for system.ads, which is
-- always the first source file read (see unit Targparm for details).
subtype File_Name_Type is Name_Id;
-- File names are stored in the names table and this synonym is used to
-- indicate that a Name_Id value is being used to hold a simple file
-- name (which does not include any directory information).
No_File : constant File_Name_Type := File_Name_Type (No_Name);
-- Constant used to indicate no file found
subtype Unit_Name_Type is Name_Id;
-- Unit names are stored in the names table and this synonym is used to
-- indicate that a Name_Id value is being used to hold a unit name.
-----------------------------------
-- Representation of Time Stamps --
-----------------------------------
-- All compiled units are marked with a time stamp which is derived from
-- the source file (we assume that the host system has the concept of a
-- file time stamp which is modified when a file is modified). These
-- time stamps are used to ensure consistency of the set of units that
-- constitutes a library. Time stamps are 12 character strings with
-- with the following format:
-- YYYYMMDDHHMMSS
-- YYYY year
-- MM month (2 digits 01-12)
-- DD day (2 digits 01-31)
-- HH hour (2 digits 00-23)
-- MM minutes (2 digits 00-59)
-- SS seconds (2 digits 00-59)
-- In the case of Unix systems (and other systems which keep the time in
-- GMT), the time stamp is the GMT time of the file, not the local time.
-- This solves problems in using libraries across networks with clients
-- spread across multiple time-zones.
Time_Stamp_Length : constant := 14;
-- Length of time stamp value
subtype Time_Stamp_Index is Natural range 1 .. Time_Stamp_Length;
type Time_Stamp_Type is new String (Time_Stamp_Index);
-- Type used to represent time stamp
Empty_Time_Stamp : constant Time_Stamp_Type := (others => ' ');
-- Type used to represent an empty or missing time stamp. Looks less
-- than any real time stamp if two time stamps are compared. Note that
-- although this is not a private type, clients should not rely on the
-- exact way in which this string is represented, and instead should
-- use the subprograms below.
Dummy_Time_Stamp : constant Time_Stamp_Type := (others => '0');
-- This is used for dummy time stamp values used in the D lines for
-- non-existant files, and is intended to be an impossible value.
function "=" (Left, Right : Time_Stamp_Type) return Boolean;
function "<=" (Left, Right : Time_Stamp_Type) return Boolean;
function ">=" (Left, Right : Time_Stamp_Type) return Boolean;
function "<" (Left, Right : Time_Stamp_Type) return Boolean;
function ">" (Left, Right : Time_Stamp_Type) return Boolean;
-- Comparison functions on time stamps. Note that two time stamps
-- are defined as being equal if they have the same day/month/year
-- and the hour/minutes/seconds values are within 2 seconds of one
-- another. This deals with rounding effects in library file time
-- stamps caused by copying operations during installation. We have
-- particularly noticed that WinNT seems susceptible to such changes.
-- Note: the Empty_Time_Stamp value looks equal to itself, and less
-- than any non-empty time stamp value.

-- Types used for Pragma Suppress Management --
-----------------------------------------------

-- To add a new check type to GNAT, the following steps are required:
-- 1. Add an appropriate entry to the above record type
-- 2. Add an entry to Snames spec and body for the new name
-- 3. Add an entry to the definition of Check_Id in the Snames spec
-- 4. Add a new entity flag definition in Einfo for the check
-- 5. Add a new function to Sem.Util to handle the new check test
-- 6. Add appropriate processing for pragma Suppress in Sem.Prag
-- 7. Add a branch to the case statement in Sem.Ch8.Pop_Scope
-- 8. Add a new Do_xxx_Check flag to Sinfo (if required)
-- 9. Add appropriate checks for the new test
-----------------------------------
-- Global Exception Declarations --
-----------------------------------
-- This section contains declarations of exceptions that are used
-- throughout the compiler.
Unrecoverable_Error : exception;
-- This exception is raised to immediately terminate the compilation
-- of the current source program. Used in situations where things are
-- bad enough that it doesn't seem worth continuing (e.g. max errors
-- reached, or a required file is not found). Also raised when the
-- compiler finds itself in trouble after an error (see Comperr).
---------------------------------
-- Parameter Mechanism Control --
---------------------------------
-- Function and parameter entities have a field that records the
-- passing mechanism. See specification of Sem_Mech for full details.
-- The following subtype is used to represent values of this type:
subtype Mechanism_Type is Int range -10 .. Int'Last;
