32 -- This package provides an implementation of dynamically resizable one
33 -- dimensional arrays. The idea is to mimic the normal Ada semantics for
34 -- arrays as closely as possible with the one additional capability of
35 -- dynamically modifying the value of the Last attribute.
37 -- Note that this interface should remain synchronized with those in
38 -- GNAT.Table and GNAT.Dynamic_Tables to keep coherency between these
39 -- three related units.

55 package Table is
57 -- Table_Component_Type and Table_Index_Type specify the type of the
58 -- array, Table_Low_Bound is the lower bound. Index_type must be an
59 -- integer type. The effect is roughly to declare:
61 -- Table : array (Table_Index_Type range Table_Low_Bound .. <>)
62 -- of Table_Component_Type;
64 -- Note: since the upper bound can be one less than the lower
65 -- bound for an empty array, the table index type must be able
66 -- to cover this range, e.g. if the lower bound is 1, then the
67 -- Table_Index_Type should be Natural rather than Positive.
69 -- Table_Component_Type may be any Ada type, except that controlled
70 -- types are not supported. Note however that default initialization
71 -- will NOT occur for array components.
73 -- The Table_Initial values controls the allocation of the table when
74 -- it is first allocated, either by default, or by an explicit Init
75 -- call. The value used is Opt.Table_Factor * Table_Initial.
77 -- The Table_Increment value controls the amount of increase, if the
78 -- table has to be increased in size. The value given is a percentage
79 -- value (e.g. 100 = increase table size by 100%, i.e. double it).
81 -- The Table_Name parameter is simply use in debug output messages it
82 -- has no other usage, and is not referenced in non-debugging mode.
84 -- The Last and Set_Last subprograms provide control over the current
85 -- logical allocation. They are quite efficient, so they can be used
86 -- freely (expensive reallocation occurs only at major granularity
87 -- chunks controlled by the allocation parameters).
89 -- Note: We do not make the table components aliased, since this would
90 -- restrict the use of table for discriminated types. If it is necessary
91 -- to take the access of a table element, use Unrestricted_Access.
93 -- WARNING: On HPPA, the virtual addressing approach used in this unit
94 -- is incompatible with the indexing instructions on the HPPA. So when
95 -- using this unit, compile your application with -mdisable-indexing.
97 -- WARNING: If the table is reallocated, then the address of all its
98 -- components will change. So do not capture the address of an element
99 -- and then use the address later after the table may be reallocated.
100 -- One tricky case of this is passing an element of the table to a
101 -- subprogram by reference where the table gets reallocated during
102 -- the execution of the subprogram. The best rule to follow is never
103 -- to pass a table element as a parameter except for the case of IN
104 -- mode parameters with scalar values.

111 -- We work with pointers to a bogus array type that is constrained
112 -- with the maximum possible range bound. This means that the pointer
113 -- is a thin pointer, which is more efficient. Since subscript checks
114 -- in any case must be on the logical, rather than physical bounds,
115 -- safety is not compromised by this approach.
117 type Table_Ptr is access all Big_Table_Type;
118 for Table_Ptr'Storage_Size use 0;
119 -- The table is actually represented as a pointer to allow reallocation
121 Table : aliased Table_Ptr := null;
122 -- The table itself. The lower bound is the value of Low_Bound.
123 -- Logically the upper bound is the current value of Last (although
124 -- the actual size of the allocated table may be larger than this).
125 -- The program may only access and modify Table entries in the range
126 -- First .. Last.
128 Locked : Boolean := False;
129 -- Table expansion is permitted only if this switch is set to False. A
130 -- client may set Locked to True, in which case any attempt to expand
131 -- the table will cause an assertion failure. Note that while a table
132 -- is locked, its address in memory remains fixed and unchanging. This
133 -- feature is used to control table expansion during Gigi processing.
134 -- Gigi assumes that tables other than the Uint and Ureal tables do
135 -- not move during processing, which means that they cannot be expanded.
136 -- The Locked flag is used to enforce this restriction.
138 procedure Init;
139 -- This procedure allocates a new table of size Initial (freeing any
140 -- previously allocated larger table). It is not necessary to call
141 -- Init when a table is first instantiated (since the instantiation does
142 -- the same initialization steps). However, it is harmless to do so, and
143 -- Init is convenient in reestablishing a table for new use.

150 -- used to determine the logically last entry.
