34 -- This procedure implements file name crunching
36 -- First, the name is divided into segments separated by minus signs and
37 -- underscores, then all minus signs and underscores are eliminated. If
38 -- this leaves the name short enough, we are done.
40 -- If not, then the longest segment is located (left-most if there are
41 -- two of equal length), and shortened by dropping its last character.
42 -- This is repeated until the name is short enough.
44 -- As an example, consider the krunch of our-strings-wide_fixed.adb
45 -- to fit the name into 8 characters as required by DOS:
47 -- our-strings-wide_fixed 22
48 -- our strings wide fixed 19
49 -- our string wide fixed 18
50 -- our strin wide fixed 17
51 -- our stri wide fixed 16
52 -- our stri wide fixe 15
53 -- our str wide fixe 14
54 -- our str wid fixe 13
55 -- our str wid fix 12
56 -- ou str wid fix 11
57 -- ou st wid fix 10
58 -- ou st wi fix 9
59 -- ou st wi fi 8
61 -- Final file name: OUSTWIFX.ADB
63 -- A special rule applies for children of System, Ada, Gnat, and Interfaces.
64 -- In these cases, the following special prefix replacements occur:
66 -- ada- replaced by a-
67 -- gnat- replaced by g-
68 -- interfaces- replaced by i-
69 -- system- replaced by s-
71 -- The rest of the name is krunched in the usual manner described above.
72 -- In addition, these names, as well as the names of the renamed packages
73 -- from the obsolescent features annex, are always krunched to 8 characters
74 -- regardless of the setting of Maxlen.
76 -- As an example of this special rule, consider ada-strings-wide_fixed.adb
77 -- which gets krunched as follows:
79 -- ada-strings-wide_fixed 22
80 -- a- strings wide fixed 18
81 -- a- string wide fixed 17
82 -- a- strin wide fixed 16
83 -- a- stri wide fixed 15
84 -- a- stri wide fixe 14
85 -- a- str wide fixe 13
86 -- a- str wid fixe 12
87 -- a- str wid fix 11
88 -- a- st wid fix 10
89 -- a- st wi fix 9
90 -- a- st wi fi 8
92 -- Final file name: A-STWIFX.ADB
94 -- Since children of units named A, G, I or S might conflict with the names
95 -- of predefined units, the naming rule in that case is that the first hyphen
96 -- is replaced by a tilde sign.
98 -- Note: as described below, this special treatment of predefined library
99 -- unit file names can be inhibited by setting the No_Predef flag.
101 -- Of course there is no guarantee that this algorithm results in uniquely
102 -- crunched names (nor, obviously, is there any algorithm which would do so)
103 -- In fact we run into such a case in the standard library routines with
104 -- children of Wide_Text_IO, so a special rule is applied to deal with this
105 -- clash, namely the prefix ada-wide_text_io- is replaced by a-wt- and then
106 -- the normal crunching rules are applied, so that for example, the unit:
108 -- Ada.Wide_Text_IO.Float_IO
110 -- has the file name
112 -- a-wtflio
114 -- More problems arise with Wide_Wide, so we replace this sequence by
115 -- a z (which is not used much) and also (as in the Wide_Text_IO case),
116 -- we replace the prefix ada.wide_wide_text_io- by a-zt- and then
117 -- the normal crunching rules are applied.
119 -- These are the only irregularity required (so far!) to keep the file names
120 -- unique in the standard predefined libraries.
122 procedure Krunch
123 (Buffer : in out String;
124 Len : in out Natural;
125 Maxlen : Natural;
126 No_Predef : Boolean);
127 pragma Elaborate_Body (Krunch);
128 -- The full file name is stored in Buffer (1 .. Len) on entry. The file
129 -- name is crunched in place and on return Len is updated, so that the
130 -- resulting krunched name is in Buffer (1 .. Len) where Len <= Maxlen.
131 -- Note that Len may be less than or equal to Maxlen on entry, in which
132 -- case it may be possible that Krunch does not modify Buffer. The fourth
133 -- parameter, No_Predef, is a switch which, if set to True, disables the
134 -- normal special treatment of predefined library unit file names.
136 -- Note: the string Buffer must have a lower bound of 1, and may not
137 -- contain any blanks (in particular, it must not have leading blanks).
