26 -- This package documents the structure of the abstract syntax tree. The Atree
27 -- package provides a basic tree structure. Sinfo describes how this structure
28 -- is used to represent the syntax of an Ada program.
30 -- The grammar in the RM is followed very closely in the tree design, and is
31 -- repeated as part of this source file.
33 -- The tree contains not only the full syntactic representation of the
34 -- program, but also the results of semantic analysis. In particular, the
35 -- nodes for defining identifiers, defining character literals, and defining
36 -- operator symbols, collectively referred to as entities, represent what
37 -- would normally be regarded as the symbol table information. In addition a
38 -- number of the tree nodes contain semantic information.
40 -- See the spec of Gen_IL.Gen for instructions on making changes to this file.
41 -- Note that the official definition of what nodes have what fields is in
42 -- Gen_IL.Gen.Gen_Nodes; if there is a discrepancy between that and the
43 -- comments here, Gen_IL.Gen.Gen_Nodes wins.

55 -- Definitions of fields in tree node --
56 ----------------------------------------
58 -- The following fields are common to all nodes:
60 -- Nkind Indicates the kind of the node. This field is present
63 -- Sloc Location (Source_Ptr) of the corresponding token
64 -- in the Source buffer. The individual node definitions
65 -- show which token is referenced by this pointer.
67 -- In_List A flag used to indicate if the node is a member
68 -- of a node list (see package Nlists).
70 -- Rewrite_Ins A flag set if a node is marked as a rewrite inserted
71 -- node as a result of a call to Mark_Rewrite_Insertion.
74 -- A 2-bit count used in subexpression nodes to indicate
75 -- the level of parentheses. The settings are 0,1,2 and
76 -- 3 for many. If the value is 3, then an auxiliary table
77 -- is used to indicate the real value, which is computed by
78 -- Paren_Count. Set to zero for nonsubexpression nodes.
80 -- Note: the required parentheses surrounding conditional
81 -- and quantified expressions count as a level of parens
82 -- for this purpose, so e.g. in X := (if A then B else C);
83 -- Paren_Count for the right side will be 1.
85 -- Comes_From_Check_Or_Contract
86 -- This flag is present in all N_If_Statement nodes and
87 -- gets set when an N_If_Statement is generated as part of
88 -- the expansion of a Check, Assert, or contract-related
92 -- This flag is present in all nodes. It is set if the
93 -- node is built by the scanner or parser, and clear if
94 -- the node is built by the analyzer or expander. It
95 -- indicates that the node corresponds to a construct
96 -- that appears in the original source program.
98 -- Analyzed This flag is present in all nodes. It is set when
99 -- a node is analyzed, and is used to avoid analyzing
100 -- the same node twice. Analysis includes expansion if
101 -- expansion is active, so in this case if the flag is
102 -- set it means the node has been analyzed and expanded.
104 -- Error_Posted This flag is present in all nodes. It is set when
105 -- an error message is posted which is associated with
106 -- the flagged node. This is used to avoid posting more
107 -- than one message on the same node.
109 -- Link For a node, points to the Parent. For a list, points
110 -- to the list header. Note that in the latter case, a
111 -- client cannot modify the link field. This field is
112 -- private to the Atree package (but is also modified
113 -- by the Nlists package).
115 -- The following additional fields are common to all entities (that is,
116 -- nodes whose Nkind is in N_Entity):
118 -- Ekind Entity type.
120 -- Convention Entity convention (Convention_Id value)
122 --------------------------------
123 -- Implicit Nodes in the Tree --
124 --------------------------------
126 -- Generally the structure of the tree very closely follows the grammar as
127 -- defined in the RM. However, certain nodes are omitted to save space and
128 -- simplify semantic processing. Two general classes of such omitted nodes
131 -- If the only possibilities for a non-terminal are one or more other
132 -- non-terminals (i.e. the rule is a "skinny" rule), then usually the
133 -- corresponding node is omitted from the tree, and the target construct
134 -- appears directly. For example, a real type definition is either
135 -- floating point definition or a fixed point definition. No explicit node
136 -- appears for real type definition. Instead either the floating point
137 -- definition or fixed point definition appears directly.
139 -- If a non-terminal corresponds to a list of some other non-terminal
140 -- (possibly with separating punctuation), then usually it is omitted from
141 -- the tree, and a list of components appears instead. For example,
142 -- sequence of statements does not appear explicitly in the tree. Instead
143 -- a list of statements appears directly.
145 -- Some additional cases of omitted nodes occur and are documented
146 -- individually. In particular, many nodes are omitted in the tree
147 -- generated for an expression.
149 -------------------------------------------
150 -- Handling of Defining Identifier Lists --
151 -------------------------------------------
153 -- In several declarative forms in the syntax, lists of defining
154 -- identifiers appear (object declarations, component declarations, number
155 -- declarations etc.)
157 -- The semantics of such statements are equivalent to a series of identical
158 -- declarations of single defining identifiers (except that conformance
159 -- checks require the same grouping of identifiers in the parameter case).
161 -- To simplify semantic processing, the parser breaks down such multiple
162 -- declaration cases into sequences of single declarations, duplicating
163 -- type and initialization information as required. The flags More_Ids and
164 -- Prev_Ids are used to record the original form of the source in the case
165 -- where the original source used a list of names, More_Ids being set on
166 -- all but the last name and Prev_Ids being set on all but the first name.
167 -- These flags are used to reconstruct the original source (e.g. in the
168 -- Sprint package), and also are included in the conformance checks, but
169 -- otherwise have no semantic significance.
171 -- Note: the reason that we use More_Ids and Prev_Ids rather than
172 -- First_Name and Last_Name flags is so that the flags are off in the
173 -- normal one identifier case, which minimizes tree print output.
175 -----------------------
176 -- Use of Node Lists --
177 -----------------------
179 -- With a few exceptions, if a construction of the form {non-terminal}
180 -- appears in the tree, lists are used in the corresponding tree node (see
181 -- package Nlists for handling of node lists). In this case a field of the
182 -- parent node points to a list of nodes for the non-terminal. The field
183 -- name for such fields has a plural name which always ends in "s". For
184 -- example, a case statement has a field Alternatives pointing to list of
185 -- case statement alternative nodes.
187 -- Only fields pointing to lists have names ending in "s", so generally the
188 -- structure is strongly typed, fields not ending in s point to single
189 -- nodes, and fields ending in s point to lists.
191 -- The following example shows how a traversal of a list is written. We
192 -- suppose here that Stmt points to a N_Case_Statement node which has a
193 -- list field called Alternatives:
195 -- Alt := First (Alternatives (Stmt));
196 -- while Present (Alt) loop
198 -- -- processing for case statement alternative Alt
200 -- Alt := Next (Alt);
203 -- The Present function tests for Empty, which in this case signals the end
204 -- of the list. First returns Empty immediately if the list is empty.
205 -- Present is defined in Atree; First and Next are defined in Nlists.
207 -- The exceptions to this rule occur with {DEFINING_IDENTIFIERS} in all
208 -- contexts, which is handled as described in the previous section, and
209 -- with {,library_unit_NAME} in the N_With_Clause node, which is handled
210 -- using the First_Name and Last_Name flags, as further detailed in the
211 -- description of the N_With_Clause node.
217 -- Pragmas can appear in many different context, but are not included in
218 -- the grammar. Still they must appear in the tree, so they can be properly
221 -- Two approaches are used. In some cases, an extra field is defined in an
222 -- appropriate node that contains a list of pragmas appearing in the
223 -- expected context. For example pragmas can appear before an
224 -- Accept_Alternative in a Selective_Accept_Statement, and these pragmas
225 -- appear in the Pragmas_Before field of the N_Accept_Alternative node.
227 -- The other approach is to simply allow pragmas to appear in syntactic
228 -- lists where the grammar (of course) does not include the possibility.
229 -- For example, the Variants field of an N_Variant_Part node points to a
230 -- list that can contain both N_Pragma and N_Variant nodes.
232 -- To make processing easier in the latter case, the Nlists package
233 -- provides a set of routines (First_Non_Pragma, Last_Non_Pragma,
234 -- Next_Non_Pragma, Prev_Non_Pragma) that allow such lists to be handled
235 -- ignoring all pragmas.
237 -- In the case of the variants list, we can either write:
239 -- Variant := First (Variants (N));
240 -- while Present (Variant) loop
242 -- Variant := Next (Variant);
247 -- Variant := First_Non_Pragma (Variants (N));
248 -- while Present (Variant) loop
250 -- Variant := Next_Non_Pragma (Variant);
253 -- In the first form of the loop, Variant can either be an N_Pragma or an
254 -- N_Variant node. In the second form, Variant can only be N_Variant since
255 -- all pragmas are skipped.
257 ---------------------
258 -- Optional Fields --
259 ---------------------
261 -- Fields which correspond to a section of the syntax enclosed in square
262 -- brackets are generally omitted (and the corresponding field set to Empty
263 -- for a node, or No_List for a list). The documentation of such fields
264 -- notes these cases. One exception to this rule occurs in the case of
265 -- possibly empty statement sequences (such as the sequence of statements
266 -- in an entry call alternative). Such cases appear in the syntax rules as
267 -- [SEQUENCE_OF_STATEMENTS] and the fields corresponding to such optional
268 -- statement sequences always contain an empty list (not No_List) if no
269 -- statements are present.
271 -- Note: the utility program that constructs the body and spec of the Nmake
272 -- package relies on the format of the comments to determine if a field
273 -- should have a default value in the corresponding make routine. The rule
274 -- is that if the first line of the description of the field contains the
275 -- string "(set to xxx if", then a default value of xxx is provided for
276 -- this field in the corresponding Make_yyy routine.
278 -----------------------------------
279 -- Note on Body/Spec Terminology --
280 -----------------------------------
282 -- In informal discussions about Ada, it is customary to refer to package
283 -- and subprogram specs and bodies. However, this is not technically
284 -- correct, what is normally referred to as a spec or specification is in
285 -- fact a package declaration or subprogram declaration. We are careful in
286 -- GNAT to use the correct terminology and in particular, the full word
287 -- specification is never used as an incorrect substitute for declaration.
288 -- The structure and terminology used in the tree also reflects the grammar
289 -- and thus uses declaration and specification in the technically correct
292 -- However, there are contexts in which the informal terminology is useful.
293 -- We have the word "body" to refer to the Interp_Etype declared by the
294 -- declaration of a unit body, and in some contexts we need similar term to
295 -- refer to the entity declared by the package or subprogram declaration,
296 -- and simply using declaration can be confusing since the body also has a
299 -- An example of such a context is the link between the package body and
300 -- its declaration. With_Declaration is confusing, since the package body
301 -- itself is a declaration.
303 -- To deal with this problem, we reserve the informal term Spec, i.e. the
304 -- popular abbreviation used in this context, to refer to the entity
305 -- declared by the package or subprogram declaration. So in the above
306 -- example case, the field in the body is called With_Spec.
308 -- Another important context for the use of the word Spec is in error
309 -- messages, where a hyper-correct use of declaration would be confusing to
310 -- a typical Ada programmer, and even for an expert programmer can cause
311 -- confusion since the body has a declaration as well.
315 -- Declaration always refers to the syntactic entity that is called
316 -- a declaration. In particular, subprogram declaration
317 -- and package declaration are used to describe the
318 -- syntactic entity that includes the semicolon.
320 -- Specification always refers to the syntactic entity that is called
321 -- a specification. In particular, the terms procedure
322 -- specification, function specification, package
323 -- specification, subprogram specification always refer
324 -- to the syntactic entity that has no semicolon.
326 -- Spec is an informal term, used to refer to the entity
327 -- that is declared by a task declaration, protected
328 -- declaration, generic declaration, subprogram
329 -- declaration or package declaration.
331 -- This convention is followed throughout the GNAT documentation
332 -- both internal and external, and in all error message text.
334 ------------------------
335 -- Internal Use Nodes --
336 ------------------------
338 -- These are Node_Kind settings used in the internal implementation which
339 -- are not logically part of the specification.
342 -- Completely unused entry at the start of the enumeration type. This
343 -- is inserted so that no legitimate value is zero, which helps to get
344 -- better debugging behavior, since zero is a likely uninitialized value).
347 -- Completely unused entry at the end of the enumeration type. This is
348 -- handy so that arrays with Node_Kind as the index type have an extra
349 -- entry at the end (see for example the use of the Pchar_Pos_Array in
350 -- Treepr, where the extra entry provides the limit value when dealing with
351 -- the last used entry in the array).
353 -----------------------------------------
354 -- Note on the settings of Sloc fields --
355 -----------------------------------------
357 -- The Sloc field of nodes that come from the source is set by the parser.
358 -- For internal nodes, and nodes generated during expansion the Sloc is
359 -- usually set in the call to the constructor for the node. In general the
360 -- Sloc value chosen for an internal node is the Sloc of the source node
361 -- whose processing is responsible for the expansion. For example, the Sloc
362 -- of an inherited primitive operation is the Sloc of the corresponding
363 -- derived type declaration.
365 -- For the nodes of a generic instantiation, the Sloc value is encoded to
366 -- represent both the original Sloc in the generic unit, and the Sloc of
367 -- the instantiation itself. See Sinput.ads for details.
369 -- Subprogram instances create two callable entities: one is the visible
370 -- subprogram instance, and the other is an anonymous subprogram nested
371 -- within a wrapper package that contains the renamings for the actuals.
372 -- Both of these entities have the Sloc of the defining entity in the
373 -- instantiation node. This simplified for instance in the past some ASIS
376 -----------------------
377 -- Field Definitions --
378 -----------------------
380 -- In the following node definitions, all fields, both syntactic and
381 -- semantic, are documented. The one exception is in the case of entities
382 -- (defining identifiers, character literals, and operator symbols), where
383 -- the usage of the fields depends on the entity kind. Entity fields are
384 -- fully documented in the separate package Einfo.
386 -- In the node definitions, three common sets of fields are abbreviated to
387 -- save both space in the documentation, and also space in the string
388 -- (defined in Tree_Print_Strings) used to print trees. The following
389 -- abbreviations are used:
391 -- "plus fields for binary operator"
392 -- Chars Name_Id for the operator
393 -- Left_Opnd left operand expression
394 -- Right_Opnd right operand expression
395 -- Entity defining entity for operator
396 -- Associated_Node for generic processing
397 -- Do_Overflow_Check set if overflow check needed
398 -- Has_Private_View set in generic units
399 -- Has_Secondary_Private_View set in generic units
401 -- "plus fields for unary operator"
402 -- Chars Name_Id for the operator
403 -- Right_Opnd right operand expression
404 -- Entity defining entity for operator
405 -- Associated_Node for generic processing
406 -- Do_Overflow_Check set if overflow check needed
407 -- Has_Private_View set in generic units
408 -- Has_Secondary_Private_View set in generic units
410 -- "plus fields for expression"
411 -- Paren_Count number of parentheses levels
412 -- Etype type of the expression
413 -- Is_Overloaded >1 type interpretation exists
414 -- Is_Static_Expression set for static expression
415 -- Raises_Constraint_Error evaluation raises CE
416 -- Must_Not_Freeze set if must not freeze
417 -- Do_Range_Check set if a range check needed
418 -- Has_Dynamic_Length_Check set if length check inserted
419 -- Assignment_OK set if modification is OK
420 -- Is_Controlling_Actual set for controlling argument
422 -- Note: see under (EXPRESSION) for further details on the use of
423 -- the Paren_Count field to record the number of parentheses levels.
425 -- Node_Kind is the type used in the Nkind field to indicate the node kind.
426 -- The actual definition of this type is given later (the reason for this
427 -- is that we want the descriptions ordered by logical chapter in the RM,
428 -- but the type definition is reordered to facilitate the definition of
429 -- some subtype ranges. The individual descriptions of the nodes show how
430 -- the various fields are used in each node kind, as well as providing
431 -- logical names for the fields. Functions and procedures are provided for
432 -- accessing and setting these fields using these logical names.
434 -----------------------
435 -- Gigi Restrictions --
436 -----------------------
438 -- The tree passed to Gigi is more restricted than the general tree form.
439 -- For example, as a result of expansion, most of the tasking nodes can
440 -- never appear. For each node to which either a complete or partial
441 -- restriction applies, a note entitled "Gigi restriction" appears which
442 -- documents the restriction.
444 -- Note that most of these restrictions apply only to trees generated when
445 -- code is being generated, since they involve expander actions that
452 -- The SPARK RM 6.9 defines two classes of constructs - Ghost entities and
453 -- Ghost statements. The intent of the feature is to treat Ghost constructs
454 -- as non-existent when Ghost assertion policy Ignore is in effect.
456 -- The corresponding nodes which map to Ghost constructs are:
464 -- N_Assignment_Statement
465 -- N_Procedure_Call_Statement
468 -- In addition, the compiler treats instantiations as Ghost entities
470 -- To achieve the removal of ignored Ghost constructs, the compiler relies
471 -- on global variables Ghost_Mode and Ignored_Ghost_Region, which comprise
472 -- a mechanism called "Ghost regions".
474 -- The values of Ghost_Mode are as follows:
476 -- 1. Check - All static semantics as defined in SPARK RM 6.9 are in
477 -- effect. The Ghost region has mode Check.
479 -- 2. Ignore - Same as Check, ignored Ghost code is not present in ALI
480 -- files, object files, and the final executable. The Ghost region
483 -- 3. None - No Ghost region is in effect
485 -- The value of Ignored_Ghost_Region captures the node which initiates an
486 -- ignored Ghost region.
488 -- A Ghost region is a compiler operating mode, similar to Check_Syntax,
489 -- however a region is much more finely grained and depends on the policy
490 -- in effect. The region starts prior to the analysis of a Ghost construct
491 -- and ends immediately after its expansion. The region is established as
494 -- 1. Declarations - Prior to analysis, if the declaration is subject to
497 -- 2. Renaming declarations - Same as 1) or when the renamed entity is
500 -- 3. Completing declarations - Same as 1) or when the declaration is
501 -- partially analyzed and the declaration completes a Ghost entity.
503 -- 4. N_Package_Body, N_Subprogram_Body - Same as 1) or when the body is
504 -- partially analyzed and completes a Ghost entity.
506 -- 5. N_Assignment_Statement - After the left hand side is analyzed and
507 -- references a Ghost entity.
509 -- 6. N_Procedure_Call_Statement - After the name is analyzed and denotes
510 -- a Ghost procedure.
512 -- 7. N_Pragma - During analysis, when the related entity is Ghost or the
513 -- pragma encloses a Ghost entity.
515 -- 8. Instantiations - Save as 1) or when the instantiation is partially
516 -- analyzed and the generic template is Ghost.
518 -- The following routines install a new Ghost region:
520 -- Install_Ghost_Region
521 -- Mark_And_Set_Ghost_xxx
524 -- The following routine ends a Ghost region:
526 -- Restore_Ghost_Region
528 -- A region may be reinstalled similarly to scopes for decoupled expansion
529 -- such as the generation of dispatch tables or the creation of a predicate
532 -- If the mode of a Ghost region is Ignore, any newly created nodes as well
533 -- as source entities are marked as ignored Ghost. In addition, the marking
534 -- process signals all enclosing scopes that an ignored Ghost node resides
535 -- within. The compilation unit where the node resides is also added to an
536 -- auxiliary table for post processing.
538 -- After the analysis and expansion of all compilation units takes place
539 -- as well as the instantiation of all inlined [generic] bodies, the GNAT
540 -- driver initiates a separate pass which removes all ignored Ghost nodes
541 -- from all units stored in the auxiliary table.
547 -- When a file is compiled in GNATprove mode (-gnatd.F), a very light
548 -- expansion is performed and the analysis must generate a tree in a
549 -- form that meets additional requirements.
551 -- This light expansion does two transformations of the tree that cannot
552 -- be postponed till after semantic analysis:
554 -- 1. Replace object renamings by renamed object. This requires the
555 -- introduction of temporaries at the point of the renaming, which
556 -- must be properly analyzed.
558 -- 2. Fully qualify entity names. This is needed to generate suitable
559 -- local effects and call-graphs in ALI files, with the completely
560 -- qualified names (in particular the suffix to distinguish homonyms).
562 -- The tree after this light expansion should be fully analyzed
563 -- semantically, which sometimes requires the insertion of semantic
564 -- preanalysis, for example for subprogram contracts and pragma
565 -- check/assert. In particular, all expressions must have their proper
566 -- type, and semantic links should be set between tree nodes (partial to
567 -- full view, etc.). Some kinds of nodes should be either absent, or can be
568 -- ignored by the formal verification backend:
570 -- N_Object_Renaming_Declaration: can be ignored safely
571 -- N_Expression_Function: absent (rewritten)
572 -- N_Expression_With_Actions: absent (not generated)
574 -- SPARK cross-references are generated from the regular cross-references
575 -- (used for browsing and code understanding) and additional references
576 -- collected during semantic analysis, in particular on all dereferences.
577 -- These SPARK cross-references are output in a separate section of ALI
578 -- files, as described in spark_xrefs.adb. They are the basis for the
579 -- computation of data dependences in GNATprove. This implies that all
580 -- cross-references should be generated in this mode, even those that would
581 -- not make sense from a user point-of-view, and that cross-references that
582 -- do not lead to data dependences for subprograms can be safely ignored.
584 -- GNATprove relies on the following front end behaviors:
586 -- 1. The first declarations in the list of visible declarations of
587 -- a package declaration for a generic instance, up to the first
588 -- declaration which comes from source, should correspond to
589 -- the "mappings nodes" between formal and actual generic parameters.
591 -- 2. In addition pragma Debug statements are removed from the tree
592 -- (rewritten to NULL stmt), since they should be ignored in formal
595 -- 3. An error is also issued for missing subunits, similar to the
596 -- warning issued when generating code, to avoid formal verification
597 -- of a partial unit.
599 -- 4. Unconstrained types are not replaced by constrained types whose
600 -- bounds are generated from an expression: Expand_Subtype_From_Expr
601 -- should be a no-op.
603 -- 5. Errors (instead of warnings) are issued on compile-time-known
604 -- constraint errors even though such cases do not correspond to
605 -- illegalities in the Ada RM (this is simply another case where
606 -- GNATprove implements a subset of the full language).
608 -- However, there are a few exceptions to this rule for cases where
609 -- we want to allow the GNATprove analysis to proceed (e.g. range
610 -- checks on empty ranges, which typically appear in deactivated
611 -- code in a particular configuration).
613 -- 6. Subtypes should match in the AST, even after a generic is
614 -- instantiated. In particular, GNATprove relies on the fact that,
615 -- on a selected component, the type of the selected component is
616 -- the type of the corresponding component in the prefix of the
617 -- selected component.
619 -- Note that, in some cases, we know that this rule is broken by the
620 -- frontend. In particular, if the selected component is a packed
621 -- array depending on a discriminant of a unconstrained formal object
622 -- parameter of a generic.
628 -- The SPARK RM 1.6.5 defines a mode of operation called "SPARK mode" which
629 -- starts a scope where the SPARK language semantics are either On, Off, or
630 -- Auto, where Auto leaves the choice to the tools. A SPARK mode may be
631 -- specified by means of an aspect or a pragma.
633 -- The following entities may be subject to a SPARK mode. Entities marked
634 -- with * may possess two different SPARK modes.

655 -- In order to manage SPARK scopes, the compiler relies on global variables
656 -- SPARK_Mode and SPARK_Mode_Pragma and a mechanism called "SPARK regions."
657 -- Routines Install_SPARK_Mode and Set_SPARK_Mode create a new SPARK region
658 -- and routine Restore_SPARK_Mode ends a SPARK region. A region may be
659 -- reinstalled similarly to scopes.

662 -- Check Flag Fields --
663 -----------------------
665 -- The following flag fields appear in expression nodes:
671 -- These three flags are always set by the front end during semantic
672 -- analysis, on expression nodes that may trigger the corresponding
673 -- check. The front end then inserts or not the check during expansion. In
674 -- particular, these flags should also be correctly set in GNATprove mode.
675 -- As a special case, the front end does not insert a Do_Division_Check
676 -- flag on float exponentiation expressions, for the case where the value
677 -- is 0.0 and the exponent is negative, although this case does lead to a
678 -- division check failure. As another special case, the front end does not
679 -- insert a Do_Range_Check on an allocator where the designated type is
680 -- scalar, and the designated type is more constrained than the type of the
681 -- initialized allocator value or the type of the default value for an
682 -- uninitialized allocator.
684 -- Note that the expander always takes care of the Do_Range_Check case, so
685 -- this flag will never be set in the expanded tree passed to the back end.
686 -- For the other two flags, the check can be generated either by the back
687 -- end or by the front end, depending on the setting of a target parameter.
689 -- Note that this accounts for all nodes that trigger the corresponding
690 -- checks, except for range checks on subtype_indications, which may be
691 -- required to check that a range_constraint is compatible with the given
692 -- subtype (RM 3.2.2(11)).
694 -- The following flag fields appear in various nodes:
696 -- Do_Discriminant_Check
700 -- These flags are used in some specific cases by the front end, either
701 -- during semantic analysis or during expansion, and cannot be expected
702 -- to be set on all nodes that trigger the corresponding check.
704 ------------------------
705 -- Common Flag Fields --
706 ------------------------
708 -- The following flag fields appear in all nodes:
711 -- This flag is used to indicate that a node (and all its children) have
712 -- been analyzed. It is used to avoid reanalysis of a node that has
713 -- already been analyzed, both for efficiency and functional correctness
717 -- This flag is set if the node comes directly from an explicit construct
718 -- in the source. It is normally on for any nodes built by the scanner or
719 -- parser from the source program, with the exception that in a few cases
720 -- the parser adds nodes to normalize the representation (in particular,
721 -- a null statement is added to a package body if there is no begin/end
722 -- initialization section).
724 -- Most nodes inserted by the analyzer or expander are not considered
725 -- as coming from source, so the flag is off for such nodes. In a few
726 -- cases, the expander constructs nodes closely equivalent to nodes
727 -- from the source program (e.g. the allocator built for build-in-place
728 -- case), and the Comes_From_Source flag is deliberately set.
731 -- This flag is used to avoid multiple error messages being posted on or
732 -- referring to the same node. This flag is set if an error message
733 -- refers to a node or is posted on its source location, and has the
734 -- effect of inhibiting further messages involving this same node.
736 -----------------------
737 -- Modify_Tree_For_C --
738 -----------------------
740 -- If the flag Opt.Modify_Tree_For_C is set True, then the tree is modified
741 -- in ways that help match the semantics better with C, easing the task of
742 -- interfacing to C code generators (other than GCC, where the work is done
743 -- in gigi, and there is no point in changing that), and also making life
744 -- easier for Cprint in generating C source code.
746 -- The current modifications implemented are as follows:
748 -- N_Op_Rotate_Left, N_Op_Rotate_Right, N_Shift_Right_Arithmetic nodes
749 -- are eliminated from the tree (since these operations do not exist in
750 -- C), and the operations are rewritten in terms of logical shifts and
751 -- other logical operations that do exist in C. See Exp_Ch4 expansion
752 -- routines for these operators for details of the transformations made.
754 -- The right operand of N_Op_Shift_Right and N_Op_Shift_Left is always
755 -- less than the word size (since other values are not well-defined in
756 -- C). This is done using an explicit test if necessary.
758 -- Min and Max attributes are expanded into equivalent if expressions,
759 -- dealing properly with side effect issues.
761 -- Mod for signed integer types is expanded into equivalent expressions
762 -- using Rem (which is % in C) and other C-available operators.
764 -- Functions returning bounded arrays are transformed into procedures
765 -- with an extra out parameter, and the calls updated accordingly.
767 -- Aggregates are only kept unexpanded for object declarations, otherwise
768 -- they are systematically expanded into loops (for arrays) and
769 -- individual assignments (for records).
771 -- Unconstrained array types are handled by means of fat pointers.
773 -- Postconditions are inlined by the frontend since their body may have
774 -- references to itypes defined in the enclosing subprogram.
776 ------------------------------------
777 -- Description of Semantic Fields --
778 ------------------------------------
780 -- The meaning of the syntactic fields is generally clear from their names
781 -- without any further description, since the names are chosen to
782 -- correspond very closely to the syntax in the reference manual. This
783 -- section describes the usage of the semantic fields, which are used to
784 -- contain additional information determined during semantic analysis.
786 -- Accept_Handler_Records
787 -- This field is present only in an N_Accept_Alternative node. It is used
788 -- to temporarily hold the exception handler records from an accept
789 -- statement in a selective accept. These exception handlers will
790 -- eventually be placed in the Handler_Records list of the procedure
791 -- built for this accept (see Expand_N_Selective_Accept procedure in
792 -- Exp_Ch9 for further details).
794 -- Access_Types_To_Process
795 -- Present in N_Freeze_Entity nodes for Incomplete or private types.
796 -- Contains the list of access types which may require specific treatment
797 -- when the nature of the type completion is completely known. An example
798 -- of such treatment is the generation of the associated_final_chain.
801 -- This field contains a sequence of actions that are associated with the
802 -- node holding the field. See the individual node types for details of
803 -- how this field is used, as well as the description of the specific use
804 -- for a particular node type.
806 -- Activation_Chain_Entity
807 -- This is used in tree nodes representing task activators (blocks,
808 -- subprogram bodies, package declarations, and task bodies). It is
809 -- initially Empty, and then gets set to point to the entity for the
810 -- declared Activation_Chain variable when the first task is declared.
811 -- When tasks are declared in the corresponding declarative region this
812 -- entity is located by name (its name is always _Chain) and the declared
813 -- tasks are added to the chain. Note that N_Extended_Return_Statement
814 -- does not have this attribute, although it does have an activation
815 -- chain. This chain is used to store the tasks temporarily, and is not
816 -- used for activating them. On successful completion of the return
817 -- statement, the tasks are moved to the caller's chain, and the caller
821 -- A flag set in the N_Subprogram_Body node for a subprogram body which
822 -- is acting as its own spec. In the case of a library-level subprogram
823 -- the flag is set as well on the parent compilation unit node.
825 -- Actual_Designated_Subtype
826 -- Present in N_Free_Statement and N_Explicit_Dereference nodes. If gigi
827 -- needs to know the dynamic constrained subtype of the designated
828 -- object, this attribute is set to that subtype. This is done for
829 -- N_Free_Statements for access-to-classwide types and access-to-
830 -- unconstrained packed array types. For N_Explicit_Dereference,
831 -- this is done in two circumstances: 1) when the designated type is
832 -- an unconstrained packed array and the dereference is the prefix of
833 -- a 'Size attribute reference, or 2) when the dereference node is
834 -- created for the expansion of an allocator with a subtype_indication
835 -- and the designated subtype is an unconstrained composite type.
837 -- Address_Warning_Posted
838 -- Present in N_Attribute_Definition nodes. Set to indicate that we have
839 -- posted a warning for the address clause regarding size or alignment
840 -- issues. Used to inhibit multiple redundant messages.
843 -- Present in array N_Aggregate nodes. If the bounds of the aggregate are
844 -- known at compile time, this field points to an N_Range node with those
845 -- bounds. Otherwise Empty.
848 -- Present in an N_Others_Choice node. This flag is set for an others
849 -- exception where all exceptions are to be caught, even those that are
850 -- not normally handled (in particular the tasking abort signal). This
851 -- is used for translation of the at end handler into a normal exception
854 -- Aspect_On_Partial_View
855 -- Present on an N_Aspect_Specification node. For an aspect that applies
856 -- to a type entity, indicates whether the specification appears on the
857 -- partial view of a private type or extension. Undefined for aspects
858 -- that apply to other entities.
861 -- Present in N_Aspect_Specification nodes. Points to the corresponding
862 -- pragma/attribute definition node used to process the aspect.
865 -- This flag is set in a subexpression node for an object, indicating
866 -- that the associated object can be modified, even if this would not
867 -- normally be permissible (either by direct assignment, or by being
868 -- passed as an out or in-out parameter). This is used by the expander
869 -- for a number of purposes, including initialization of constants and
870 -- limited type objects (such as tasks), setting discriminant fields,
871 -- setting tag values, etc. N_Object_Declaration nodes also have this
872 -- flag defined. Here it is used to indicate that an initialization
873 -- expression is valid, even where it would normally not be allowed
874 -- (e.g. where the type involved is limited). It is also used to stop
875 -- a Force_Evaluation call for an unchecked conversion, but this usage
876 -- is unclear and not documented ???
879 -- Present in nodes that can denote an entity: identifiers, character
880 -- literals, operator symbols, expanded names, operator nodes, and
881 -- attribute reference nodes (all these nodes have an Entity field).
882 -- This field is also present in N_Aggregate, N_Selected_Component, and
883 -- N_Extension_Aggregate nodes. This field is used in generic processing
884 -- to create links between the generic template and the generic copy.
885 -- See Sem_Ch12.Get_Associated_Node for full details. Note that this
886 -- field overlaps Entity, which is fine, since, as explained in Sem_Ch12,
887 -- the normal function of Entity is not required at the point where the
888 -- Associated_Node is set. Note also, that in generic templates, this
889 -- means that the Entity field does not necessarily point to an Entity.
890 -- Since the back end is expected to ignore generic templates, this is
893 -- Atomic_Sync_Required
894 -- This flag is set on a node for which atomic synchronization is
895 -- required for the corresponding reference or modification.
898 -- This field is present in N_Handled_Sequence_Of_Statements,
899 -- N_Package_Body, N_Subprogram_Body, N_Task_Body, N_Block_Statement,
901 -- It contains an identifier reference for the cleanup procedure to be
902 -- called. See description of N_Handled_Sequence_Of_Statements node
903 -- for further details.
906 -- A flag present in the N_Assignment_Statement node. It is used only
907 -- if the type being assigned is an array type, and is set if analysis
908 -- determines that it is definitely safe to do the copy backwards, i.e.
909 -- starting at the highest addressed element. This is the case if either
910 -- the operands do not overlap, or they may overlap, but if they do,
911 -- then the left operand is at a higher address than the right operand.
913 -- Note: If neither of the flags Forwards_OK or Backwards_OK is set, it
914 -- means that the front end could not determine that either direction is
915 -- definitely safe, and a runtime check may be required if the backend
916 -- cannot figure it out. If both flags Forwards_OK and Backwards_OK are
917 -- set, it means that the front end can assure no overlap of operands.
920 -- Present in subprogram declarations. Denotes analyzed but unexpanded
921 -- body of subprogram, to be used when inlining calls. Present when the
922 -- subprogram has an Inline pragma and inlining is enabled. If the
923 -- declaration is completed by a renaming_as_body, and the renamed entity
924 -- is a subprogram, the Body_To_Inline is the name of that entity, which
925 -- is used directly in later calls to the original subprogram.
928 -- A flag that appears in the N_Compilation_Unit node indicating that
929 -- the corresponding unit requires a body. For the package case, this
930 -- indicates that a completion is required. In Ada 95, if the flag is not
931 -- set for the package case, then a body may not be present. In Ada 83,
932 -- if the flag is not set for the package case, then body is optional.
933 -- For a subprogram declaration, the flag is set except in the case where
934 -- a pragma Import or Interface applies, in which case no body is
935 -- permitted (in Ada 83 or Ada 95).
937 -- Cannot_Be_Superflat
938 -- This flag is present in N_Range nodes. It is set if the range is of a
939 -- discrete type and cannot be superflat, i.e. it is guaranteed that the
940 -- inequality High_Bound >= Low_Bound - 1 is true. At the time of this
941 -- writing, it is only used by the code generator to streamline things.
944 -- Present in block statements created for transient blocks, contains
945 -- additional cleanup actions carried over from the transient scope.
947 -- Check_Address_Alignment
948 -- A flag present in N_Attribute_Definition clause for a 'Address
949 -- attribute definition. This flag is set if a dynamic check should be
950 -- generated at the freeze point for the entity to which this address
951 -- clause applies. The reason that we need this flag is that we want to
952 -- check for range checks being suppressed at the point where the
953 -- attribute definition clause is given, rather than testing this at the
956 -- Comes_From_Extended_Return_Statement
957 -- Present in N_Simple_Return_Statement nodes. True if this node was
958 -- constructed as part of the N_Extended_Return_Statement expansion.
960 -- Comes_From_Iterator
961 -- Present in N_Object_Renaming_Declaration nodes. True if this node was
962 -- was constructed as part of the expansion of an iterator
965 -- Compile_Time_Known_Aggregate
966 -- Present in N_Aggregate nodes. Set for aggregates which can be fully
967 -- evaluated at compile time without raising constraint error. Such
968 -- aggregates can be passed as is to the back end without any expansion.
969 -- See Exp_Aggr for specific conditions under which this flag gets set.
971 -- Componentwise_Assignment
972 -- Present in N_Assignment_Statement nodes. Set for a record assignment
973 -- where all that needs doing is to expand it into component-by-component
974 -- assignments. This is used internally for the case of tagged types with
975 -- rep clauses, where we need to avoid recursion (we don't want to try to
976 -- generate a call to the primitive operation, because this is the case
977 -- where we are compiling the primitive operation). Note that when we are
978 -- expanding component assignments in this case, we never assign the _tag
979 -- field, but we recursively assign components of the parent type.
982 -- This field appears in else-if nodes and in the iteration scheme node
983 -- for while loops. This field is only used during semantic processing to
984 -- temporarily hold actions inserted into the tree. In the tree passed
985 -- to gigi, the condition actions field is always set to No_List. For
986 -- details on how this field is used, see the routine Insert_Actions in
987 -- package Exp_Util, and also the expansion routines for the relevant
991 -- This field appears in Compilation_Unit nodes, to indicate that the
992 -- context of the unit is being compiled. Used to detect circularities
993 -- that are not otherwise detected by the loading mechanism. Such
994 -- circularities can occur in the presence of limited and non-limited
995 -- with_clauses that mention the same units.
997 -- Controlling_Argument
998 -- This field is set in procedure and function call nodes if the call
999 -- is a dispatching call (it is Empty for a non-dispatching call). It
1000 -- indicates the source of the call's controlling tag. For procedure
1001 -- calls, the Controlling_Argument is one of the actuals. For function
1002 -- that has a dispatching result, it is an entity in the context of the
1003 -- call that can provide a tag, or else it is the tag of the root type
1004 -- of the class. It can also specify a tag directly rather than being a
1005 -- tagged object. The latter is needed by the implementations of AI-239
1009 -- A flag set on type conversion nodes to indicate that the conversion
1010 -- is to be considered as being valid, even though it is the case that
1011 -- the conversion is not valid Ada. This is used for attributes Enum_Rep,
1012 -- Pos, Val, Fixed_Value and Integer_Value, for internal conversions done
1013 -- for fixed-point operations, and for certain conversions for calls to
1014 -- initialization procedures. If Conversion_OK is set, then Etype must be
1015 -- set (the analyzer assumes that Etype has been set). For the case of
1016 -- fixed-point operands, it also indicates that the conversion is to be
1017 -- direct conversion of the underlying integer result, with no regard to
1018 -- the small operand.
1020 -- Corresponding_Aspect
1021 -- Present in N_Pragma node. Used to point back to the source aspect from
1022 -- the corresponding pragma. This field is Empty for source pragmas.
1024 -- Corresponding_Body
1025 -- This field is set in subprogram declarations, package declarations,
1026 -- entry declarations of protected types, and in generic units. It points
1027 -- to the defining entity for the corresponding body (NOT the node for
1028 -- the body itself).
1030 -- Corresponding_Entry_Body
1031 -- Defined in N_Subprogram_Body. Set for subprogram bodies that implement
1032 -- a protected type entry; points to the body for the entry.
1034 -- Corresponding_Formal_Spec
1035 -- This field is set in subprogram renaming declarations, where it points
1036 -- to the defining entity for a formal subprogram in the case where the
1037 -- renaming corresponds to a generic formal subprogram association in an
1038 -- instantiation. The field is Empty if the renaming does not correspond
1039 -- to such a formal association.
1041 -- Corresponding_Generic_Association
1042 -- This field is defined for object declarations and object renaming
1043 -- declarations. It is set for the declarations within an instance that
1044 -- map generic formals to their actuals. If set, the field points either
1045 -- to a copy of a default expression for an actual of mode IN or to a
1046 -- generic_association which is the original parent of the expression or
1047 -- name appearing in the declaration. This simplifies GNATprove queries.
1049 -- Corresponding_Integer_Value
1050 -- This field is set in real literals of fixed-point types (it is not
1051 -- used for floating-point types). It contains the integer value used
1052 -- to represent the fixed-point value. It is also set on the universal
1053 -- real literals used to represent bounds of fixed-point base types
1054 -- and their first named subtypes.
1056 -- Corresponding_Spec
1057 -- This field is set in subprogram, package, task, entry and protected
1058 -- body nodes where it points to the defining entity in the corresponding
1059 -- spec. The attribute is also set in N_With_Clause nodes where it points
1060 -- to the defining entity for the with'ed spec, and in a subprogram
1061 -- renaming declaration when it is a Renaming_As_Body. The field is Empty
1062 -- if there is no corresponding spec, as in the case of a subprogram body
1063 -- that serves as its own spec.
1065 -- In Ada 2012, Corresponding_Spec is set on expression functions that
1066 -- complete a subprogram declaration.
1068 -- Corresponding_Spec_Of_Stub
1069 -- This field is present in subprogram, package, task, and protected body
1070 -- stubs where it points to the corresponding spec of the stub. Due to
1071 -- clashes in the structure of nodes, we cannot use Corresponding_Spec.
1073 -- Corresponding_Stub
1074 -- This field is present in an N_Subunit node. It holds the node in
1075 -- the parent unit that is the stub declaration for the subunit. It is
1076 -- set when analysis of the stub forces loading of the proper body. If
1077 -- expansion of the proper body creates new declarative nodes, they are
1078 -- inserted at the point of the corresponding_stub.
1081 -- This field is present in an N_Variant node, It references the entity
1082 -- for the discriminant checking function for the variant.
1084 -- Default_Expression
1085 -- This field is Empty if there is no default expression. If there is a
1086 -- simple default expression (one with no side effects), then this field
1087 -- simply contains a copy of the Expression field (both point to the tree
1088 -- for the default expression). Default_Expression is used for
1089 -- conformance checking.
1091 -- Default_Storage_Pool
1092 -- This field is present in N_Compilation_Unit_Aux nodes. It is set to a
1093 -- copy of Opt.Default_Pool at the end of the compilation unit. See
1094 -- package Opt for details. This is used for inheriting the
1095 -- Default_Storage_Pool in child units.
1097 -- Discr_Check_Funcs_Built
1098 -- This flag is present in N_Full_Type_Declaration nodes. It is set when
1099 -- discriminant checking functions are constructed. The purpose is to
1100 -- avoid attempting to set these functions more than once.
1102 -- Do_Discriminant_Check
1103 -- This flag is set on N_Selected_Component nodes to indicate that a
1104 -- discriminant check is required using the discriminant check routine
1105 -- associated with the selector. The actual check is generated by the
1106 -- expander when processing selected components. In the case of
1107 -- Unchecked_Union, the flag is also set, but no discriminant check
1108 -- routine is associated with the selector, and the expander does not
1109 -- generate a check. This flag is also present in assignment statements
1110 -- (and set if the assignment requires a discriminant check), and in type
1111 -- conversion nodes (and set if the conversion requires a check).
1113 -- Do_Division_Check
1114 -- This flag is set on a division operator (/ mod rem) to indicate that
1115 -- a zero divide check is required. The actual check is either dealt with
1116 -- by the back end if Backend_Divide_Checks is set to true, or by the
1117 -- front end itself if it is set to false.
1120 -- This flag is set in an N_Assignment_Statement, N_Op_And, N_Op_Or,
1121 -- N_Op_Xor, or N_Type_Conversion node to indicate that a length check
1122 -- is required. It is not determined who deals with this flag (???).
1124 -- Do_Overflow_Check
1125 -- This flag is set on an operator where an overflow check is required on
1126 -- the operation. The actual check is either dealt with by the back end
1127 -- if Backend_Overflow_Checks is set to true, or by the front end itself
1128 -- if it is set to false. The other cases where this flag is used is on a
1129 -- Type_Conversion node as well on if and case expression nodes.
1130 -- For a type conversion, it means that the conversion is from one base
1131 -- type to another, and the value may not fit in the target base type.
1132 -- See also the description of Do_Range_Check for this case. This flag is
1133 -- also set on if and case expression nodes if we are operating in either
1134 -- MINIMIZED or ELIMINATED overflow checking mode (to make sure that we
1135 -- properly process overflow checking for dependent expressions).
1138 -- This flag is set on an expression which appears in a context where a
1139 -- range check is required. The target type is clear from the context.
1140 -- The contexts in which this flag can appear are the following:
1142 -- Right side of an assignment. In this case the target type is taken
1143 -- from the left side of the assignment, which is referenced by the
1144 -- Name of the N_Assignment_Statement node.
1146 -- Subscript expressions in an indexed component. In this case the
1147 -- target type is determined from the type of the array, which is
1148 -- referenced by the Prefix of the N_Indexed_Component node.
1150 -- Argument expression for a parameter, appearing either directly in
1151 -- the Parameter_Associations list of a call or as the Expression of an
1152 -- N_Parameter_Association node that appears in this list. In either
1153 -- case, the check is against the type of the formal. Note that the
1154 -- flag is relevant only in IN and IN OUT parameters, and will be
1155 -- ignored for OUT parameters, where no check is required in the call,
1156 -- and if a check is required on the return, it is generated explicitly
1157 -- with a type conversion.
1159 -- Initialization expression for the initial value in an object
1160 -- declaration. In this case the Do_Range_Check flag is set on
1161 -- the initialization expression, and the check is against the
1162 -- range of the type of the object being declared. This includes the
1163 -- cases of expressions providing default discriminant values, and
1164 -- expressions used to initialize record components.
1166 -- The expression of a type conversion. In this case the range check is
1167 -- against the target type of the conversion. See also the use of
1168 -- Do_Overflow_Check on a type conversion. The distinction is that the
1169 -- overflow check protects against a value that is outside the range of
1170 -- the target base type, whereas a range check checks that the
1171 -- resulting value (which is a value of the base type of the target
1172 -- type), satisfies the range constraint of the target type.
1174 -- Note: when a range check is required in contexts other than those
1175 -- listed above (e.g. in a return statement), an additional type
1176 -- conversion node is introduced to represent the required check.
1179 -- This flag is set in an N_Allocator node to indicate that a storage
1180 -- check is required for the allocation, or in an N_Subprogram_Body node
1181 -- to indicate that a stack check is required in the subprogram prologue.
1182 -- The N_Allocator case is handled by the routine that expands the call
1183 -- to the runtime routine. The N_Subprogram_Body case is handled by the
1184 -- backend, and all the semantics does is set the flag.
1186 -- Elaborate_Present
1187 -- This flag is set in the N_With_Clause node to indicate that pragma
1188 -- Elaborate pragma appears for the with'ed units.
1190 -- Elaborate_All_Desirable
1191 -- This flag is set in the N_With_Clause mode to indicate that the static
1192 -- elaboration processing has determined that an Elaborate_All pragma is
1193 -- desirable for correct elaboration for this unit.
1195 -- Elaborate_All_Present
1196 -- This flag is set in the N_With_Clause node to indicate that a
1197 -- pragma Elaborate_All pragma appears for the with'ed units.
1199 -- Elaborate_Desirable
1200 -- This flag is set in the N_With_Clause mode to indicate that the static
1201 -- elaboration processing has determined that an Elaborate pragma is
1202 -- desirable for correct elaboration for this unit.
1205 -- This field is present in if expression nodes. During code
1206 -- expansion we use the Insert_Actions procedure (in Exp_Util) to insert
1207 -- actions at an appropriate place in the tree to get elaborated at the
1208 -- right time. For if expressions, we have to be sure that the actions
1209 -- for the Else branch are only elaborated if the condition is False.
1210 -- The Else_Actions field is used as a temporary parking place for
1211 -- these actions. The final tree is always rewritten to eliminate the
1212 -- need for this field, so in the tree passed to Gigi, this field is
1213 -- always set to No_List.
1215 -- Enclosing_Variant
1216 -- This field is present in the N_Variant node and identifies the Node_Id
1217 -- corresponding to the immediately enclosing variant when the variant is
1218 -- nested, and N_Empty otherwise. Set during semantic processing of the
1219 -- variant part of a record type.
1222 -- Appears in all direct names (identifiers, character literals, and
1223 -- operator symbols), as well as expanded names, and attributes that
1224 -- denote entities, such as 'Class. Points to entity for corresponding
1225 -- defining occurrence. Set after name resolution. For identifiers in a
1226 -- WITH list, the corresponding defining occurrence is in a separately
1227 -- compiled file, and Entity must be set by the library Load procedure.
1229 -- Note: During name resolution, the value in Entity may be temporarily
1230 -- incorrect (e.g. during overload resolution, Entity is initially set to
1231 -- the first possible correct interpretation, and then later modified if
1232 -- necessary to contain the correct value after resolution).
1234 -- Note: This field overlaps Associated_Node, which is used during
1235 -- generic processing (see Sem_Ch12 for details). Note also that in
1236 -- generic templates, this means that the Entity field does not always
1237 -- point to an Entity. Since the back end is expected to ignore generic
1238 -- templates, this is harmless.
1240 -- Note: This field also appears in N_Attribute_Definition_Clause nodes.
1241 -- It is used only for stream attributes definition clauses. In this
1242 -- case, it denotes a (possibly dummy) subprogram entity that is declared
1243 -- conceptually at the point of the clause. Thus the visibility of the
1244 -- attribute definition clause (in the sense of 8.3(23) as amended by
1245 -- AI-195) can be checked by testing the visibility of that subprogram.
1247 -- Note: Normally the Entity field of an identifier points to the entity
1248 -- for the corresponding defining identifier, and hence the Chars field
1249 -- of an identifier will match the Chars field of the entity. However,
1250 -- there is no requirement that these match, and there are obscure cases
1251 -- of generated code where they do not match.
1253 -- Note: Ada 2012 aspect specifications require additional links between
1254 -- identifiers and various attributes. These attributes can be of
1255 -- arbitrary types, and the entity field of identifiers that denote
1256 -- aspects must be used to store arbitrary expressions for later semantic
1257 -- checks. See section on aspect specifications for details.
1259 -- Entity_Or_Associated_Node
1260 -- A synonym for both Entity and Associated_Node. Used by convention in
1261 -- the code when referencing this field in cases where it is not known
1262 -- whether the field contains an Entity or an Associated_Node.
1265 -- Appears in all expression nodes, all direct names, and all entities.
1266 -- Points to the entity for the related type. Set after type resolution.
1267 -- Normally this is the actual subtype of the expression. However, in
1268 -- certain contexts such as the right side of an assignment, subscripts,
1269 -- arguments to calls, returned value in a function, initial value etc.
1270 -- it is the desired target type. In the event that this is different
1271 -- from the actual type, the Do_Range_Check flag will be set if a range
1272 -- check is required. Note: if the Is_Overloaded flag is set, then Etype
1273 -- points to an essentially arbitrary choice from the possible set of
1277 -- This flag is set in a various nodes appearing in a statement sequence
1278 -- to indicate that the corresponding node is an artifact of the
1279 -- generated code for exception handling, and should be ignored when
1280 -- analyzing the control flow of the relevant sequence of statements
1281 -- (e.g. to check that it does not end with a bad return statement).
1284 -- Appears in N_Push_xxx_Label nodes. Points to the entity of the label
1285 -- to be used for transforming the corresponding exception into a goto,
1286 -- or contains Empty, if this exception is not to be transformed. Also
1287 -- appears in N_Exception_Handler nodes, where, if set, it indicates
1288 -- that there may be a local raise for the handler, so that expansion
1289 -- to allow a goto is required (and this field contains the label for
1290 -- this goto). See Exp_Ch11.Expand_Local_Exception_Handlers for details.
1292 -- Expansion_Delayed
1293 -- Set on aggregates and extension aggregates that need a top-down rather
1294 -- than bottom-up expansion. Typically aggregate expansion happens bottom
1295 -- up. For nested aggregates the expansion is delayed until the enclosing
1296 -- aggregate itself is expanded, e.g. in the context of a declaration. To
1297 -- delay it we set this flag. This is done to avoid creating a temporary
1298 -- for each level of a nested aggregate, and also to prevent the
1299 -- premature generation of constraint checks. This is also a requirement
1300 -- if we want to generate the proper attachment to the internal
1301 -- finalization lists (for record with controlled components). Top down
1302 -- expansion of aggregates is also used for in-place array aggregate
1303 -- assignment or initialization. When the full context is known, the
1304 -- target of the assignment or initialization is used to generate the
1305 -- left-hand side of individual assignment to each subcomponent.
1308 -- Present in N_Pragma_Argument_Association nodes. Contains a copy of the
1309 -- original expression. This field is best used to store pragma-dependent
1310 -- modifications performed on the original expression such as replacement
1311 -- of the current type instance or substitutions of primitives.
1313 -- First_Inlined_Subprogram
1314 -- Present in the N_Compilation_Unit node for the main program. Points
1315 -- to a chain of entities for subprograms that are to be inlined. The
1316 -- Next_Inlined_Subprogram field of these entities is used as a link
1317 -- pointer with Empty marking the end of the list. This field is Empty
1318 -- if there are no inlined subprograms or inlining is not active.
1320 -- First_Named_Actual
1321 -- Present in procedure call statement and function call nodes, and also
1322 -- in Intrinsic nodes. Set during semantic analysis to point to the first
1323 -- named parameter where parameters are ordered by declaration order (as
1324 -- opposed to the actual order in the call which may be different due to
1325 -- named associations). Note: this field points to the explicit actual
1326 -- parameter itself, not the N_Parameter_Association node (its parent).
1328 -- First_Subtype_Link
1329 -- Present in N_Freeze_Entity node for an anonymous base type that is
1330 -- implicitly created by the declaration of a first subtype. It points
1331 -- to the entity for the first subtype.
1334 -- A flag present in type conversion nodes. It is used for floating-point
1335 -- to fixed-point or integer conversions, where truncation is required
1336 -- rather than rounding.
1339 -- A flag present in the N_Assignment_Statement node. It is used only
1340 -- if the type being assigned is an array type, and is set if analysis
1341 -- determines that it is definitely safe to do the copy forwards, i.e.
1342 -- starting at the lowest addressed element. This is the case if either
1343 -- the operands do not overlap, or they may overlap, but if they do,
1344 -- then the left operand is at a lower address than the right operand.
1346 -- Note: If neither of the flags Forwards_OK or Backwards_OK is set, it
1347 -- means that the front end could not determine that either direction is
1348 -- definitely safe, and a runtime check may be required if the backend
1349 -- cannot figure it out. If both flags Forwards_OK and Backwards_OK are
1350 -- set, it means that the front end can assure no overlap of operands.
1352 -- For_Special_Return_Object
1353 -- Present in N_Allocator nodes. True if the allocator is generated for
1354 -- the initialization of a special return object.
1356 -- From_Aspect_Specification
1357 -- Processing of aspect specifications typically results in insertion in
1358 -- the tree of corresponding pragma or attribute definition clause nodes.
1359 -- These generated nodes have the From_Aspect_Specification flag set to
1360 -- indicate that they came from aspect specifications originally.
1363 -- This flag is set on the attribute definition clause node that is
1364 -- generated by a transformation of an at mod phrase in a record
1365 -- representation clause. This is used to give slightly different (Ada 83
1366 -- compatible) semantics to such a clause, namely it is used to specify a
1367 -- minimum acceptable alignment for the base type and all subtypes. In
1368 -- Ada 95 terms, the actual alignment of the base type and all subtypes
1369 -- must be a multiple of the given value, and the representation clause
1370 -- is considered to be type specific instead of subtype specific.
1372 -- From_Conditional_Expression
1373 -- This flag is set on if and case statements generated by the expansion
1374 -- of if and case expressions respectively. The flag is used to suppress
1375 -- any finalization of controlled objects found within these statements.
1378 -- This flag is set on the subprogram renaming declaration created in an
1379 -- instance for a formal subprogram, when the formal is declared with a
1380 -- box, and there is no explicit actual. If the flag is present, the
1381 -- declaration is treated as an implicit reference to the formal in the
1384 -- Generalized_Indexing
1385 -- Present in N_Indexed_Component nodes. Set for Indexed_Component nodes
1386 -- that are Ada 2012 container indexing operations. The value of the
1387 -- attribute is a function call (possibly dereferenced) that corresponds
1388 -- to the proper expansion of the source indexing operation. Before
1389 -- expansion, the source node is rewritten as the resolved generalized
1393 -- Generic_Parent is defined on declaration nodes that are instances. The
1394 -- value of Generic_Parent is the generic entity from which the instance
1397 -- Generic_Parent_Type
1398 -- Generic_Parent_Type is defined on Subtype_Declaration nodes for the
1399 -- actuals of formal private and derived types. Within the instance, the
1400 -- operations on the actual are those inherited from the parent. For a
1401 -- formal private type, the parent type is the generic type itself. The
1402 -- Generic_Parent_Type is also used in an instance to determine whether a
1403 -- private operation overrides an inherited one.
1405 -- Handler_List_Entry
1406 -- This field is present in N_Object_Declaration nodes. It is set only
1407 -- for the Handler_Record entry generated for an exception in zero cost
1408 -- exception handling mode. It references the corresponding item in the
1409 -- handler list, and is used to delete this entry if the corresponding
1410 -- handler is deleted during optimization. For further details on why
1411 -- this is required, see Exp_Ch11.Remove_Handler_Entries.
1413 -- Has_Dereference_Action
1414 -- This flag is present in N_Explicit_Dereference nodes. It is set to
1415 -- indicate that the expansion has aready produced a call to primitive
1416 -- Dereference of a System.Checked_Pools.Checked_Pool implementation.
1417 -- Such dereference actions are produced for debugging purposes.
1419 -- Has_Dynamic_Length_Check
1420 -- This flag is present in all expression nodes. It is set to indicate
1421 -- that one of the routines in unit Checks has generated a length check
1422 -- action which has been inserted at the flagged node. This is used to
1423 -- avoid the generation of duplicate checks.
1426 -- Present in exception handler nodes. Set if the handler can be entered
1427 -- via a local raise that gets transformed to a goto statement. This will
1428 -- always be set if Local_Raise_Statements is non-empty, but can also be
1429 -- set as a result of generation of N_Raise_xxx nodes, or flags set in
1430 -- nodes requiring generation of back end checks.
1432 -- Has_No_Elaboration_Code
1433 -- A flag that appears in the N_Compilation_Unit node to indicate whether
1434 -- or not elaboration code is present for this unit. It is initially set
1435 -- true for subprogram specs and bodies and for all generic units and
1436 -- false for non-generic package specs and bodies. Gigi may set the flag
1437 -- in the non-generic package case if it determines that no elaboration
1438 -- code is generated. Note that this flag is not related to the
1439 -- Is_Preelaborated status, there can be preelaborated packages that
1440 -- generate elaboration code, and non-preelaborated packages which do
1441 -- not generate elaboration code.
1443 -- Has_Pragma_Suppress_All
1444 -- This flag is set in an N_Compilation_Unit node if the Suppress_All
1445 -- pragma appears anywhere in the unit. This accommodates the rather
1446 -- strange placement rules of other compilers (DEC permits it at the
1447 -- end of a unit, and Rational allows it as a program unit pragma). We
1448 -- allow it anywhere at all, and consider it equivalent to a pragma
1449 -- Suppress (All_Checks) appearing at the start of the configuration
1450 -- pragmas for the unit.
1453 -- A flag present in generic nodes that have an entity, to indicate that
1454 -- the node has a private type. Used to exchange private and full
1455 -- declarations if the visibility at instantiation is different from the
1456 -- visibility at generic definition.
1458 -- Has_Relative_Deadline_Pragma
1459 -- A flag present in N_Subprogram_Body and N_Task_Definition nodes to
1460 -- flag the presence of a pragma Relative_Deadline.
1462 -- Has_Secondary_Private_View
1463 -- A flag present in generic nodes that have an entity, to indicate that
1464 -- the node is either of an access type whose Designated_Type is private
1465 -- or of an array type whose Component_Type is private. Used to exchange
1466 -- private and full declarations if the visibility at instantiation is
1467 -- different from the visibility at generic definition.
1469 -- Has_Self_Reference
1470 -- Present in N_Aggregate and N_Extension_Aggregate. Indicates that one
1471 -- of the expressions contains an access attribute reference to the
1472 -- enclosing type. Such a self-reference can only appear in default-
1473 -- initialized aggregate for a record type.
1476 -- Present in all nodes containing a Discrete_Choices field (N_Variant,
1477 -- N_Case_Expression_Alternative, N_Case_Statement_Alternative). Set to
1478 -- True if the Discrete_Choices list has at least one occurrence of a
1479 -- statically predicated subtype.
1481 -- Has_Storage_Size_Pragma
1482 -- A flag present in an N_Task_Definition node to flag the presence of a
1483 -- Storage_Size pragma.
1486 -- Present in assignment statements. Indicates that the RHS contains
1487 -- target names (see AI12-0125-3) and must be expanded accordingly.
1489 -- Has_Wide_Character
1490 -- Present in string literals, set if any wide character (i.e. character
1491 -- code outside the Character range but within Wide_Character range)
1492 -- appears in the string. Used to implement pragma preference rules.
1494 -- Has_Wide_Wide_Character
1495 -- Present in string literals, set if any wide character (i.e. character
1496 -- code outside the Wide_Character range) appears in the string. Used to
1497 -- implement pragma preference rules.
1499 -- Header_Size_Added
1500 -- Present in N_Attribute_Reference nodes, set only for attribute
1501 -- Max_Size_In_Storage_Elements. The flag indicates that the size of the
1502 -- hidden list header used by the runtime finalization support has been
1503 -- added to the size of the prefix. The flag also prevents the infinite
1504 -- expansion of the same attribute in the said context.
1506 -- Hidden_By_Use_Clause
1507 -- An entity list present in use clauses that appear within
1508 -- instantiations. For the resolution of local entities, entities
1509 -- introduced by these use clauses have priority over global ones,
1510 -- and outer entities must be explicitly hidden/restored on exit.
1513 -- Present in N_With_Clause nodes. The flag indicates that the clause
1514 -- does not comes from source and introduces an implicit dependency on
1515 -- a particular unit. Such implicit with clauses are generated by:
1517 -- * ABE mechanism - The static elaboration model of both the default
1518 -- and the legacy ABE mechanism use with clauses to encode implicit
1519 -- Elaborate[_All] pragmas.
1521 -- * Analysis - A with clause for child unit A.B.C is equivalent to
1522 -- a series of clauses that with A, A.B, and A.B.C. Manipulation of
1523 -- contexts utilizes implicit with clauses to emulate the visibility
1524 -- of a particular unit.
1526 -- * RTSfind - The compiler generates code which references entities
1527 -- from the runtime.
1529 -- Import_Interface_Present
1530 -- This flag is set in an Interface or Import pragma if a matching
1531 -- pragma of the other kind is also present. This is used to avoid
1532 -- generating some unwanted error messages.
1534 -- Includes_Infinities
1535 -- This flag is present in N_Range nodes. It is set for the range of
1536 -- unconstrained float types defined in Standard, which include not only
1537 -- the given range of values, but also legitimately can include infinite
1538 -- values. This flag is false for any float type for which an explicit
1539 -- range is given by the programmer, even if that range is identical to
1540 -- the range for Float.
1543 -- Present in full type declarations that are completions of incomplete
1544 -- type declarations. Denotes the corresponding incomplete view declared
1545 -- by the incomplete declaration.
1547 -- Inherited_Discriminant
1548 -- This flag is present in N_Component_Association nodes. It indicates
1549 -- that a given component association in an extension aggregate is the
1550 -- value obtained from a constraint on an ancestor. Used to prevent
1551 -- double expansion when the aggregate has expansion delayed.
1554 -- This field is present in generic instantiation nodes, and also in
1555 -- formal package declaration nodes (formal package declarations are
1556 -- treated in a manner very similar to package instantiations). It points
1557 -- to the node for the spec of the instance, inserted as part of the
1558 -- semantic processing for instantiations in Sem_Ch12.
1561 -- Present in N_Block_Statement nodes. True if the block protects a list
1562 -- of statements with an Abort_Defer / Abort_Undefer_Direct pair.
1564 -- Is_Accessibility_Actual
1565 -- Present in N_Parameter_Association nodes. True if the parameter is
1566 -- an extra actual that carries the accessibility level of the actual
1567 -- for an access parameter, in a function that dispatches on result and
1568 -- is called in a dispatching context. Used to prevent a formal/actual
1569 -- mismatch when the call is rewritten as a dispatching call.
1571 -- Is_Analyzed_Pragma
1572 -- Present in N_Pragma nodes. Set for delayed pragmas that require a two
1573 -- step analysis. The initial step is performed by routine Analyze_Pragma
1574 -- and verifies the overall legality of the pragma. The second step takes
1575 -- place in the various Analyze_xxx_In_Decl_Part routines which perform
1576 -- full analysis. The flag prevents the reanalysis of a delayed pragma.
1578 -- Is_Asynchronous_Call_Block
1579 -- A flag set in a Block_Statement node to indicate that it is the
1580 -- expansion of an asynchronous entry call. Such a block needs cleanup
1581 -- handler to assure that the call is cancelled.
1583 -- Is_Boolean_Aspect
1584 -- Present in N_Aspect_Specification node. Set if the aspect is for a
1585 -- boolean aspect (i.e. Aspect_Id is in Boolean_Aspect subtype).
1588 -- Present in N_Aspect_Specification and N_Pragma nodes. Set for an
1589 -- assertion aspect or pragma, or check pragma for an assertion, that
1590 -- is to be checked at run time. If either Is_Checked or Is_Ignored
1591 -- is set (they cannot both be set), then this means that the status of
1592 -- the pragma has been checked at the appropriate point and should not
1593 -- be further modified (in some cases these flags are copied when a
1594 -- pragma is rewritten).
1596 -- Is_Checked_Ghost_Pragma
1597 -- This flag is present in N_Pragma nodes. It is set when the pragma is
1598 -- related to a checked Ghost entity or encloses a checked Ghost entity.
1599 -- This flag has no relation to Is_Checked.
1601 -- Is_Component_Left_Opnd
1602 -- Is_Component_Right_Opnd
1603 -- Present in concatenation nodes, to indicate that the corresponding
1604 -- operand is of the component type of the result. Used in resolving
1605 -- concatenation nodes in instances.
1607 -- Is_Controlling_Actual
1608 -- This flag is set on an expression that is a controlling argument in
1609 -- a dispatching call. It is off in all other cases. See Sem_Disp for
1610 -- details of its use.
1612 -- Is_Declaration_Level_Node
1613 -- Present in call marker and instantiation nodes. Set when the constuct
1614 -- appears within the declarations of a block statement, an entry body,
1615 -- a subprogram body, or a task body. The flag aids the ABE Processing
1616 -- phase to catch certain forms of guaranteed ABEs.
1618 -- Is_Delayed_Aspect
1619 -- Present in N_Pragma and N_Attribute_Definition_Clause nodes which
1620 -- come from aspect specifications, where the evaluation of the aspect
1621 -- must be delayed to the freeze point. This flag is also set True in
1622 -- the corresponding N_Aspect_Specification node.
1625 -- A flag set in an N_Aspect_Specification or N_Pragma node if there was
1626 -- a Check_Policy or Assertion_Policy (or in the case of a Debug_Pragma)
1627 -- a Debug_Policy pragma that resulted in totally disabling the flagged
1628 -- aspect or policy as a result of using the GNAT-defined policy DISABLE.
1629 -- If this flag is set, the aspect or policy is not analyzed for semantic
1630 -- correctness, so any expressions etc will not be marked as analyzed.
1632 -- Is_Dispatching_Call
1633 -- Present in call marker nodes. Set when the related call which prompted
1634 -- the creation of the marker is dispatching.
1636 -- Is_Dynamic_Coextension
1637 -- Present in allocator nodes, to indicate that this is an allocator
1638 -- for an access discriminant of a dynamically allocated object. The
1639 -- coextension must be deallocated and finalized at the same time as
1640 -- the enclosing object. The partner flag Is_Static_Coextension must
1641 -- be cleared before setting this flag to True.
1643 -- Is_Effective_Use_Clause
1644 -- Present in both N_Use_Type_Clause and N_Use_Package_Clause to indicate
1645 -- a use clause is "used" in the current source.
1647 -- Is_Elaboration_Checks_OK_Node
1648 -- Present in the following nodes:
1650 -- assignment statement
1651 -- attribute reference
1653 -- entry call statement
1656 -- function instantiation
1658 -- package instantiation
1659 -- procedure call statement
1660 -- procedure instantiation
1661 -- requeue statement
1662 -- variable reference marker
1664 -- Set when the node appears within a context which allows the generation
1665 -- of run-time ABE checks. This flag determines whether the ABE
1666 -- Processing phase generates conditional ABE checks and guaranteed ABE
1669 -- Is_Elaboration_Code
1670 -- Present in assignment statements. Set for an assignment which updates
1671 -- the elaboration flag of a package or subprogram when the corresponding
1672 -- body is successfully elaborated.
1674 -- Is_Elaboration_Warnings_OK_Node
1675 -- Present in the following nodes:
1677 -- attribute reference
1679 -- entry call statement
1682 -- function instantiation
1684 -- package instantiation
1685 -- procedure call statement
1686 -- procedure instantiation
1687 -- requeue statement
1688 -- variable reference marker
1690 -- Set when the node appears within a context where elaboration warnings
1691 -- are enabled. This flag determines whether the ABE processing phase
1692 -- generates diagnostics on various elaboration issues.
1694 -- Is_Entry_Barrier_Function
1695 -- This flag is set on N_Subprogram_Declaration and N_Subprogram_Body
1696 -- nodes which emulate the barrier function of a protected entry body.
1697 -- The flag is used when checking for incorrect use of Current_Task.
1699 -- Is_Enum_Array_Aggregate
1700 -- A flag set on an aggregate created internally while building the
1701 -- images tables for enumerations.
1703 -- Is_Expanded_Build_In_Place_Call
1704 -- This flag is set in an N_Function_Call node to indicate that the extra
1705 -- actuals to support a build-in-place style of call have been added to
1708 -- Is_Expanded_Contract
1709 -- Present in N_Contract nodes. Set if the contract has already undergone
1710 -- expansion activities.
1712 -- Is_Finalization_Wrapper
1713 -- This flag is present in N_Block_Statement nodes. It is set when the
1714 -- block acts as a wrapper of a handled construct which has controlled
1715 -- objects. The wrapper prevents interference between exception handlers
1716 -- and At_End handlers.
1718 -- Is_Generic_Contract_Pragma
1719 -- This flag is present in N_Pragma nodes. It is set when the pragma is
1720 -- a source construct, applies to a generic unit or its body, and denotes
1721 -- one of the following contract-related annotations:
1723 -- Always_Terminates
1726 -- Exceptional_Cases
1727 -- Extensions_Visible
1729 -- Initial_Condition
1741 -- Subprogram_Variant
1744 -- Is_Homogeneous_Aggregate
1745 -- A flag set on an Ada 2022 aggregate that uses square brackets as
1746 -- delimiters, and thus denotes an array or container aggregate, or
1747 -- the prefix of a reduction attribute.
1750 -- A flag set in an N_Aspect_Specification or N_Pragma node if there was
1751 -- a Check_Policy or Assertion_Policy (or in the case of a Debug_Pragma)
1752 -- a Debug_Policy pragma that specified a policy of IGNORE, DISABLE, or
1753 -- OFF, for the pragma/aspect. If there was a Policy pragma specifying
1754 -- a Policy of ON or CHECK, then this flag is reset. If no Policy pragma
1755 -- gives a policy for the aspect or pragma, then there are two cases. For
1756 -- an assertion aspect or pragma (one of the assertion kinds allowed in
1757 -- an Assertion_Policy pragma), then Is_Ignored is set if assertions are
1758 -- ignored because of the absence of a -gnata switch. For any other
1759 -- aspects or pragmas, the flag is off. If this flag is set, the
1760 -- aspect/pragma is fully analyzed and checked for other syntactic
1761 -- and semantic errors, but it does not have any semantic effect.
1763 -- Is_Ignored_Ghost_Pragma
1764 -- This flag is present in N_Pragma nodes. It is set when the pragma is
1765 -- related to an ignored Ghost entity or encloses ignored Ghost entity.
1766 -- This flag has no relation to Is_Ignored.
1768 -- Is_In_Discriminant_Check
1769 -- This flag is present in a selected component, and is used to indicate
1770 -- that the reference occurs within a discriminant check. The
1771 -- significance is that optimizations based on assuming that the
1772 -- discriminant check has a correct value cannot be performed in this
1773 -- case (or the discriminant check may be optimized away).
1775 -- Is_Inherited_Pragma
1776 -- This flag is set in an N_Pragma node that appears in a N_Contract node
1777 -- to indicate that the pragma has been inherited from a parent context.
1779 -- Is_Initialization_Block
1780 -- Defined in block nodes. Set when the block statement was created by
1781 -- the finalization machinery to wrap initialization statements. This
1782 -- flag aids the ABE Processing phase to suppress the diagnostics of
1783 -- finalization actions in initialization contexts.
1785 -- Is_Known_Guaranteed_ABE
1786 -- NOTE: this flag is shared between the legacy ABE mechanism and the
1787 -- default ABE mechanism.
1789 -- Present in the following nodes:
1792 -- formal package declaration
1794 -- function instantiation
1795 -- package instantiation
1796 -- procedure call statement
1797 -- procedure instantiation
1799 -- Set when the elaboration or evaluation of the scenario results in
1800 -- a guaranteed ABE. The flag is used to suppress the instantiation of
1801 -- generic bodies because gigi cannot handle certain forms of premature
1802 -- instantiation, as well as to prevent the reexamination of the node by
1803 -- the ABE Processing phase.
1805 -- Is_Machine_Number
1806 -- This flag is set in an N_Real_Literal node to indicate that the value
1807 -- is a machine number. This avoids some unnecessary cases of converting
1808 -- real literals to machine numbers.
1811 -- This flag is set in an N_Loop_Statement node if the corresponding loop
1812 -- can be determined to be null at compile time. This is used to remove
1813 -- the loop entirely at expansion time.
1816 -- A flag present in all expression nodes. Used temporarily during
1817 -- overloading determination. The setting of this flag is not relevant
1818 -- once overloading analysis is complete.
1820 -- Is_Parenthesis_Aggregate
1821 -- A flag set on an aggregate that uses parentheses as delimiters
1823 -- Is_Power_Of_2_For_Shift
1824 -- A flag present only in N_Op_Expon nodes. It is set when the
1825 -- exponentiation is of the form 2 ** N, where the type of N is an
1826 -- unsigned integral subtype whose size does not exceed the size of
1827 -- Standard_Integer (i.e. a type that can be safely converted to
1828 -- Natural), and the exponentiation appears as the right operand of an
1829 -- integer multiplication or an integer division where the dividend is
1830 -- unsigned. It is also required that overflow checking is off for both
1831 -- the exponentiation and the multiply/divide node. If this set of
1832 -- conditions holds, and the flag is set, then the division or
1833 -- multiplication can be (and is) converted to a shift.
1835 -- Is_Preelaborable_Call
1836 -- Present in call marker nodes. Set when the related call is non-static
1837 -- but preelaborable.
1840 -- This flag is set in a selected component within a generic unit, if
1841 -- it resolves to a prefixed call to a primitive operation. The flag
1842 -- is used to prevent accidental overloadings in an instance, when a
1843 -- primitive operation and a private record component may be homographs.
1845 -- Is_Protected_Subprogram_Body
1846 -- A flag set in a Subprogram_Body block to indicate that it is the
1847 -- implementation of a protected subprogram. Such a body needs cleanup
1848 -- handler to make sure that the associated protected object is unlocked
1849 -- when the subprogram completes.
1851 -- Is_Qualified_Universal_Literal
1852 -- Present in N_Qualified_Expression nodes. Set when the qualification is
1853 -- converting a universal literal to a specific type. Such qualifiers aid
1854 -- the resolution of accidental overloading of binary or unary operators
1855 -- which may occur in instances.
1858 -- Present in variable reference markers. Set when the original variable
1859 -- reference constitutes a read of the variable.
1862 -- Present in call marker nodes. Set when the related call came from
1865 -- Is_SPARK_Mode_On_Node
1866 -- Present in the following nodes:
1868 -- assignment statement
1869 -- attribute reference
1871 -- entry call statement
1874 -- function instantiation
1876 -- package instantiation
1877 -- procedure call statement
1878 -- procedure instantiation
1879 -- requeue statement
1880 -- variable reference marker
1882 -- Set when the node appears within a context subject to SPARK_Mode On.
1883 -- This flag determines when the SPARK model of elaboration be activated
1884 -- by the ABE Processing phase.
1886 -- Is_Static_Coextension
1887 -- Present in N_Allocator nodes. Set if the allocator is a coextension
1888 -- of an object allocated on the stack rather than the heap. The partner
1889 -- flag Is_Dynamic_Coextension must be cleared before setting this flag
1892 -- Is_Static_Expression
1893 -- Indicates that an expression is a static expression according to the
1894 -- rules in RM-4.9. See Sem_Eval for details.
1896 -- Is_Subprogram_Descriptor
1897 -- Present in N_Object_Declaration, and set only for the object
1898 -- declaration generated for a subprogram descriptor in fast exception
1899 -- mode. See Exp_Ch11 for details of use.
1901 -- Is_Task_Allocation_Block
1902 -- A flag set in a Block_Statement node to indicate that it is the
1903 -- expansion of a task allocator, or the allocator of an object
1904 -- containing tasks. Such a block requires a cleanup handler to call
1905 -- Expunge_Unactivated_Tasks to complete any tasks that have been
1906 -- allocated but not activated when the allocator completes abnormally.
1908 -- Is_Task_Body_Procedure
1909 -- This flag is set on N_Subprogram_Declaration and N_Subprogram_Body
1910 -- nodes which emulate the body of a task unit.
1913 -- A flag set in a Subprogram_Body, Block_Statement, or Task_Body node to
1914 -- indicate that the construct is a task master (i.e. has declared tasks
1915 -- or declares an access to a task type).
1918 -- Present in variable reference markers. Set when the original variable
1919 -- reference constitutes a write of the variable.
1922 -- Present in N_Loop_Parameter_Specification and N_Iterator_Specification
1923 -- nodes for Ada 2022. It is used to store the condition present in the
1924 -- eponymous Ada 2022 construct.
1927 -- Used in N_Itype_Reference node to reference an itype for which it is
1928 -- important to ensure that it is defined. See description of this node
1929 -- for further details.
1932 -- Used in an N_Unchecked_Type_Conversion node to indicate that the
1933 -- result should not be subjected to range checks. This is used for the
1934 -- implementation of Normalize_Scalars.
1937 -- Used in an N_Implicit_Label_Declaration node. Refers to an N_Label,
1938 -- N_Block_Statement or N_Loop_Statement node to which the label
1939 -- declaration applies. The field is left empty for the special labels
1940 -- generated as part of expanding raise statements with a local exception
1944 -- In a stub node, Library_Unit points to the compilation unit node of
1945 -- the corresponding subunit.
1947 -- In a with clause node, Library_Unit points to the spec of the with'ed
1950 -- In a compilation unit node, the usage depends on the unit type:
1952 -- For a library unit body, Library_Unit points to the compilation unit
1953 -- node of the corresponding spec, unless it's a subprogram body with
1954 -- Acts_As_Spec set, in which case it points to itself.
1956 -- For a spec, Library_Unit points to the compilation unit node of the
1957 -- corresponding body, if present. The body will be present if the spec
1958 -- is or contains generics that we needed to instantiate. Similarly, the
1959 -- body will be present if we needed it for inlining purposes. Thus, if
1960 -- we have a spec/body pair, both of which are present, they point to
1961 -- each other via Library_Unit.
1963 -- For a subunit, Library_Unit points to the compilation unit node of
1965 -- ??? not (always) true, in (at least some, maybe all?) cases it points
1966 -- to the corresponding spec for the parent body.
1968 -- Note that this field is not used to hold the parent pointer for child
1969 -- unit (which might in any case need to use it for some other purpose as
1970 -- described above). Instead for a child unit, implicit with's are
1971 -- generated for all parents.
1973 -- Local_Raise_Statements
1974 -- This field is present in exception handler nodes. It is set to
1975 -- No_Elist in the normal case. If there is at least one raise statement
1976 -- which can potentially be handled as a local raise, then this field
1977 -- points to a list of raise nodes, which are calls to a routine to raise
1978 -- an exception. These are raise nodes which can be optimized into gotos
1979 -- if the handler turns out to meet the conditions which permit this
1980 -- transformation. Note that this does NOT include instances of the
1981 -- N_Raise_xxx_Error nodes since the transformation of these nodes is
1982 -- handled by the back end (using the N_Push/N_Pop mechanism).
1985 -- A list present in Component_Association nodes in array aggregates.
1986 -- Used to collect actions that must be executed within the loop because
1987 -- they may need to be evaluated anew each time through.
1989 -- Limited_View_Installed
1990 -- Present in With_Clauses and in package specifications. If set on
1991 -- with_clause, it indicates that this clause has created the current
1992 -- limited view of the designated package. On a package specification, it
1993 -- indicates that the limited view has already been created because the
1994 -- package is mentioned in a limited_with_clause in the closure of the
1995 -- unit being compiled.
1997 -- Local_Raise_Not_OK
1998 -- Present in N_Exception_Handler nodes. Set if the handler contains
1999 -- a construct (reraise statement, or call to subprogram in package
2000 -- GNAT.Current_Exception) that makes the handler unsuitable as a target
2001 -- for a local raise (one that could otherwise be converted to a goto).
2003 -- Must_Be_Byte_Aligned
2004 -- This flag is present in N_Attribute_Reference nodes. It can be set
2005 -- only for the Address and Unrestricted_Access attributes. If set it
2006 -- means that the object for which the address/access is given must be on
2007 -- a byte (more accurately a storage unit) boundary. If necessary, a copy
2008 -- of the object is to be made before taking the address (this copy is in
2009 -- the current scope on the stack frame). This is used for certain cases
2010 -- of code generated by the expander that passes parameters by address.
2012 -- The reason the copy is not made by the front end is that the back end
2013 -- has more information about type layout and may be able to (but is not
2014 -- guaranteed to) prevent making unnecessary copies.
2017 -- A flag present in all expression nodes. Normally expressions cause
2018 -- freezing as described in the RM. If this flag is set, then this is
2019 -- inhibited. This is used by the analyzer and expander to label nodes
2020 -- that are created by semantic analysis or expansion and which must not
2021 -- cause freezing even though they normally would. This flag is also
2022 -- present in an N_Subtype_Indication node, since we also use these in
2023 -- calls to Freeze_Expression.
2026 -- Present in defining identifiers, defining character literals, and
2027 -- defining operator symbols (i.e. in all entities). The entities of a
2028 -- scope are chained, and this field is used as the forward pointer for
2029 -- this list. See Einfo for further details.
2031 -- Next_Exit_Statement
2032 -- Present in N_Exit_Statement nodes. The exit statements for a loop are
2033 -- chained (in reverse order of appearance) from the First_Exit_Statement
2034 -- field of the E_Loop entity for the loop. Next_Exit_Statement points to
2035 -- the next entry on this chain (Empty = end of list).
2037 -- Next_Implicit_With
2038 -- Present in N_With_Clause. Part of a chain of with_clauses generated
2039 -- in rtsfind to indicate implicit dependencies on predefined units. Used
2040 -- to prevent multiple with_clauses for the same unit in a given context.
2041 -- A postorder traversal of the tree whose nodes are units and whose
2042 -- links are with_clauses defines the order in which CodePeer must
2043 -- examine a compiled unit and its full context. This ordering ensures
2044 -- that any subprogram call is examined after the subprogram declaration
2047 -- Next_Named_Actual
2048 -- Present in parameter association nodes. Set during semantic analysis
2049 -- to point to the next named parameter, where parameters are ordered by
2050 -- declaration order (as opposed to the actual order in the call, which
2051 -- may be different due to named associations). Not that this field
2052 -- points to the explicit actual parameter itself, not to the
2053 -- N_Parameter_Association node (its parent).
2056 -- Present in N_Pragma nodes. Used to create a linked list of pragma
2057 -- nodes. Currently used for two purposes:
2059 -- Create a list of linked Check_Policy pragmas. The head of this list
2060 -- is stored in Opt.Check_Policy_List (which has further details).
2062 -- Used by processing for Pre/Postcondition pragmas to store a list of
2063 -- pragmas associated with the spec of a subprogram (see Sem_Prag for
2066 -- Used by processing for pragma SPARK_Mode to store multiple pragmas
2067 -- the apply to the same construct. These are visible/private mode for
2068 -- a package spec and declarative/statement mode for package body.
2071 -- Present in pragma nodes, attribute definition nodes, enumeration rep
2072 -- clauses, record rep clauses, aspect specification and null statement
2073 -- nodes. Used to link representation items that apply to an entity. See
2074 -- full description of First_Rep_Item field in Einfo for further details.
2077 -- While use clauses are active during semantic processing, they are
2078 -- chained from the scope stack entry, using Next_Use_Clause as a link
2079 -- pointer, with Empty marking the end of the list. The head pointer is
2080 -- in the scope stack entry (First_Use_Clause). At the end of semantic
2081 -- processing (i.e. when Gigi sees the tree, the contents of this field
2082 -- is undefined and should not be read).
2085 -- Present in N_Assignment_Statement to indicate that neither Finalize
2086 -- nor Adjust should take place on this assignment even though the LHS
2087 -- and RHS are controlled. Also to indicate that the primitive _assign
2088 -- should not be used for a tagged assignment. This flag is used in init
2089 -- proc and aggregate expansion where the generated assignments are
2090 -- initializations, not real assignments. Note that it also suppresses
2091 -- the creation of transient scopes around the N_Assignment_Statement,
2092 -- in other words it disables all controlled actions for the assignment.
2094 -- No_Elaboration_Check
2095 -- NOTE: this flag is relevant only for the legacy ABE mechanism and
2096 -- should not be used outside of that context.
2098 -- Present in N_Function_Call and N_Procedure_Call_Statement. Indicates
2099 -- that no elaboration check is needed on the call, because it appears in
2100 -- the context of a local Suppress pragma. This is used on calls within
2101 -- task bodies, where the actual elaboration checks are applied after
2102 -- analysis, when the local scope stack is not present.
2104 -- No_Entities_Ref_In_Spec
2105 -- Present in N_With_Clause nodes. Set if the with clause is on the
2106 -- package or subprogram spec where the main unit is the corresponding
2107 -- body, and no entities of the with'ed unit are referenced by the spec
2108 -- (an entity may still be referenced in the body, so this flag is used
2109 -- to generate the proper message (see Sem_Util.Check_Unused_Withs for
2112 -- No_Finalize_Actions
2113 -- Present in N_Assignment_Statement to indicate that no Finalize should
2114 -- take place on this assignment even though the LHS is controlled. Also
2115 -- to indicate that the primitive _assign should not be used for a tagged
2116 -- assignment. This flag is only used in aggregates expansion where the
2117 -- generated assignments are initializations, not real assignments. Note
2118 -- that, unlike the No_Ctrl_Actions flag, it does *not* suppress the
2119 -- creation of transient scopes around the N_Assignment_Statement.
2121 -- No_Initialization
2122 -- Present in N_Object_Declaration and N_Allocator to indicate that the
2123 -- object must not be initialized (by Initialize or call to an init
2124 -- proc). This is needed for controlled aggregates. When the Object
2125 -- declaration has an expression, this flag means that this expression
2126 -- should not be taken into account (needed for in place initialization
2127 -- with aggregates, and for object with an address clause, which are
2128 -- initialized with an assignment at freeze time).
2130 -- No_Minimize_Eliminate
2131 -- This flag is present in membership operator nodes (N_In/N_Not_In).
2132 -- It is used to indicate that processing for extended overflow checking
2133 -- modes is not required (this is used to prevent infinite recursion).
2136 -- Present in N_Unchecked_Type_Conversion node. This flag has an effect
2137 -- only if the RM_Size of the source is greater than the RM_Size of the
2138 -- target for scalar operands. Normally in such a case we truncate some
2139 -- higher order bits of the source, and then sign/zero extend the result
2140 -- to form the output value. But if this flag is set, then we do not do
2141 -- any truncation, so for example, if an 8 bit input is converted to 5
2142 -- bit result which is in fact stored in 8 bits, then the high order
2143 -- three bits of the target result will be copied from the source. This
2144 -- is used for properly setting out of range values for use by pragmas
2145 -- Initialize_Scalars and Normalize_Scalars.
2147 -- Null_Excluding_Subtype
2148 -- Present in N_Access_To_Object_Definition. Indicates that the subtype
2149 -- indication carries a null-exclusion indicator, which is distinct from
2150 -- the null-exclusion indicator that may precede the access keyword.
2152 -- Original_Discriminant
2153 -- Present in identifiers. Used in references to discriminants that
2154 -- appear in generic units. Because the names of the discriminants may be
2155 -- different in an instance, we use this field to recover the position of
2156 -- the discriminant in the original type, and replace it with the
2157 -- discriminant at the same position in the instantiated type.
2160 -- Present in numeric literals. Used to denote the named number that has
2161 -- been constant-folded into the given literal. If literal is from
2162 -- source, or the result of some other constant-folding operation, then
2163 -- Original_Entity is empty. This field is needed to handle properly
2164 -- named numbers in generic units, where the Associated_Node field
2165 -- interferes with the Entity field, making it impossible to preserve the
2166 -- original entity at the point of instantiation.
2168 -- Others_Discrete_Choices
2169 -- When a case statement or variant is analyzed, the semantic checks
2170 -- determine the actual list of choices that correspond to an others
2171 -- choice. This list is materialized for later use by the expander and
2172 -- the Others_Discrete_Choices field of an N_Others_Choice node points to
2173 -- this materialized list of choices, which is in standard format for a
2174 -- list of discrete choices, except that of course it cannot contain an
2175 -- N_Others_Choice entry.
2178 -- For a library unit that is a child unit spec (package or subprogram
2179 -- declaration, generic declaration or instantiation, or library level
2180 -- rename) this field points to the compilation unit node for the parent
2181 -- package specification. This field is Empty for library bodies (the
2182 -- parent spec in this case can be found from the corresponding spec).
2185 -- Present in N_With_Clause nodes. The flag indicates that the clause
2186 -- was generated for an ancestor unit to provide proper visibility. A
2187 -- with clause for child unit A.B.C produces two implicit parent with
2188 -- clauses for A and A.B.
2191 -- Present in N_Incomplete_Type_Declaration node. Used for improved
2192 -- error diagnostics: if there is a premature usage of an incomplete
2193 -- type, a subsequently generated error message indicates the position
2194 -- of its full declaration.
2197 -- Present in an N_Variant node. This has a meaningful value only after
2198 -- Gigi has back annotated the tree with representation information. At
2199 -- this point, it contains a reference to a gcc expression that depends
2200 -- on the values of one or more discriminants. Given a set of
2201 -- discriminant values, this expression evaluates to False (zero) if
2202 -- variant is not present, and True (non-zero) if it is present. See
2203 -- unit Repinfo for further details on gigi back annotation. This field
2204 -- is used during back-annotation processing (for -gnatR -gnatc) to
2205 -- determine if a field is present or not.
2208 -- Present in both N_Use_Package_Clause and N_Use_Type_Clause. Used in
2209 -- detection of ineffective use clauses by allowing a chain of related
2210 -- clauses together to avoid traversing the current scope stack.
2213 -- Set on an N_Integer_Literal node to indicate that the value should be
2214 -- printed in hexadecimal in the sprint listing. Has no effect on
2215 -- legality or semantics of program, only on the displayed output. This
2216 -- is used to clarify output from the packed array cases.
2218 -- Procedure_To_Call
2219 -- Present in N_Allocator, N_Free_Statement, N_Simple_Return_Statement,
2220 -- and N_Extended_Return_Statement nodes. References the entity for the
2221 -- declaration of the procedure to be called to accomplish the required
2222 -- operation (i.e. for the Allocate procedure in the case of N_Allocator
2223 -- and N_Simple_Return_Statement and N_Extended_Return_Statement (for
2224 -- allocating the return value), and for the Deallocate procedure in the
2225 -- case of N_Free_Statement.
2227 -- Raises_Constraint_Error
2228 -- Set on an expression whose evaluation will definitely fail constraint
2229 -- error check. See Sem_Eval for details.
2232 -- Present in nodes that can appear as an operand in a use clause or use
2233 -- type clause (identifiers, expanded names, attribute references). Set
2234 -- to indicate that a use is redundant (and therefore need not be undone
2237 -- Renaming_Exception
2238 -- Present in N_Exception_Declaration node. Used to point back to the
2239 -- exception renaming for an exception declared within a subprogram.
2240 -- What happens is that an exception declared in a subprogram is moved
2241 -- to the library level with a unique name, and the original exception
2242 -- becomes a renaming. This link from the library level exception to the
2243 -- renaming declaration allows registering of the proper exception name.
2245 -- Return_Statement_Entity
2246 -- Present in N_Simple_Return_Statement and N_Extended_Return_Statement.
2247 -- Points to an E_Return_Statement representing the return statement.
2249 -- Return_Object_Declarations
2250 -- Present in N_Extended_Return_Statement. Points to a list initially
2251 -- containing a single N_Object_Declaration representing the return
2252 -- object. We use a list (instead of just a pointer to the object decl)
2253 -- because Analyze wants to insert extra actions on this list, before the
2254 -- N_Object_Declaration, which always remains last on the list.
2257 -- Present in N_Type_Conversion, N_Op_Divide, and N_Op_Multiply nodes.
2258 -- Used in the fixed-point cases to indicate that the result must be
2259 -- rounded as a result of the use of the 'Round attribute. Also used for
2260 -- integer N_Op_Divide nodes to indicate that the result should be
2261 -- rounded to the nearest integer (breaking ties away from zero), rather
2262 -- than truncated towards zero as usual. These rounded integer operations
2263 -- are the result of expansion of rounded fixed-point divide, conversion
2264 -- and multiplication operations.
2266 -- Save_Invocation_Graph_Of_Body
2267 -- Present in compilation unit nodes. Set when the elaboration mechanism
2268 -- must record all invocation constructs and invocation relations within
2269 -- the body of the compilation unit.
2272 -- Present in SCIL nodes. References the specific tagged type associated
2273 -- with the SCIL node (for an N_SCIL_Dispatching_Call node, this is
2274 -- the controlling type of the call; for an N_SCIL_Membership_Test node
2275 -- generated as part of testing membership in T'Class, this is T; for an
2276 -- N_SCIL_Dispatch_Table_Tag_Init node, this is the type being declared).
2278 -- SCIL_Controlling_Tag
2279 -- Present in N_SCIL_Dispatching_Call nodes. References the controlling
2280 -- tag of a dispatching call. This is usually an N_Selected_Component
2281 -- node (for a _tag component), but may be an N_Object_Declaration or
2282 -- N_Parameter_Specification node in some cases (e.g., for a call to
2283 -- a classwide streaming operation or a call to an instance of
2284 -- Ada.Tags.Generic_Dispatching_Constructor).
2287 -- Present in N_SCIL_Membership_Test nodes. Used to reference the tag
2288 -- of the value that is being tested.
2291 -- Present in N_SCIL_Dispatching_Call nodes. References the primitive
2292 -- operation named (statically) in a dispatching call.
2295 -- Present in defining identifiers, defining character literals, and
2296 -- defining operator symbols (i.e. in all entities). The entities of a
2297 -- scope all use this field to reference the corresponding scope entity.
2298 -- See Einfo for further details.
2301 -- A flag present in shift nodes to indicate that the shift count is
2302 -- known to be in range, i.e. is in the range from zero to word length
2303 -- minus one. If this flag is not set, then the shift count may be
2304 -- outside this range, i.e. larger than the word length, and the code
2305 -- must ensure that such shift counts give the appropriate result.
2308 -- Used in an N_Validate_Unchecked_Conversion node to point to the
2309 -- source type entity for the unchecked conversion instantiation
2310 -- which gigi must do size validation for.
2313 -- When a Pre or Post aspect specification is processed, it is broken
2314 -- into AND THEN sections. The leftmost section has Split_PPC set to
2315 -- False, indicating that it is the original specification (e.g. for
2316 -- posting errors). For other sections, Split_PPC is set to True.
2317 -- This flag is set in both the N_Aspect_Specification node itself,
2318 -- and in the pragma which is generated from this node.
2321 -- Present in N_Allocator, N_Free_Statement, N_Simple_Return_Statement,
2322 -- and N_Extended_Return_Statement nodes. References the entity for the
2323 -- storage pool to be used for the allocate or free call or for the
2324 -- allocation of the returned value from function. Empty indicates that
2325 -- the global default pool is to be used. Note that in the case
2326 -- of a return statement, this field is set only if the function returns
2327 -- value of a type whose size is not known at compile time on the
2330 -- Suppress_Assignment_Checks
2331 -- Used in generated N_Assignment_Statement nodes to suppress predicate
2332 -- and range checks in cases where the generated code knows that the
2333 -- value being assigned is in range and satisfies any predicate. Also
2334 -- can be set in N_Object_Declaration nodes, to similarly suppress any
2335 -- checks on the initializing value. In assignment statements it also
2336 -- suppresses access checks in the generated code for out- and in-out
2337 -- parameters in entry calls, as well as discriminant and length checks.
2339 -- Suppress_Loop_Warnings
2340 -- Used in N_Loop_Statement node to indicate that warnings within the
2341 -- body of the loop should be suppressed. This is set when the range
2342 -- of a FOR loop is known to be null, or is probably null (loop would
2343 -- only execute if invalid values are present).
2346 -- Present in call and variable reference marker nodes. References the
2347 -- entity of the original entity, operator, or subprogram being invoked,
2348 -- or the original variable being read or written.
2351 -- Used in an N_Validate_Unchecked_Conversion node to point to the target
2352 -- type entity for the unchecked conversion instantiation which gigi must
2353 -- do size validation for.
2356 -- This field is present in if expression nodes. During code expansion
2357 -- we use the Insert_Actions procedure (in Exp_Util) to insert actions
2358 -- at an appropriate place in the tree to get elaborated at the right
2359 -- time. For if expressions, we have to be sure that the actions for
2360 -- for the Then branch are only elaborated if the condition is True.
2361 -- The Then_Actions field is used as a temporary parking place for
2362 -- these actions. The final tree is always rewritten to eliminate the
2363 -- need for this field, so in the tree passed to Gigi, this field is
2364 -- always set to No_List.
2367 -- Present in N_Freeze_Entity nodes. Holds an element list containing
2368 -- entries for each TSS (type support subprogram) associated with the
2369 -- frozen type. The elements of the list are the entities for the
2370 -- subprograms (see package Exp_TSS for further details). Set to No_Elist
2371 -- if there are no type support subprograms for the type or if the freeze
2372 -- node is not for a type.
2374 -- Uneval_Old_Accept
2375 -- Present in N_Pragma nodes. Set True if Opt.Uneval_Old is set to 'A'
2376 -- (accept) at the point where the pragma is encountered (including the
2377 -- case of a pragma generated from an aspect specification). It is this
2378 -- setting that is relevant, rather than the setting at the point where
2379 -- a contract is finally analyzed after the delay till the freeze point.
2382 -- Present in N_Pragma nodes. Set True if Opt.Uneval_Old is set to 'W'
2383 -- (warn) at the point where the pragma is encountered (including the
2384 -- case of a pragma generated from an aspect specification). It is this
2385 -- setting that is relevant, rather than the setting at the point where
2386 -- a contract is finally analyzed after the delay till the freeze point.
2388 -- Unreferenced_In_Spec
2389 -- Present in N_With_Clause nodes. Set if the with clause is on the
2390 -- package or subprogram spec where the main unit is the corresponding
2391 -- body, and is not referenced by the spec (it may still be referenced by
2392 -- the body, so this flag is used to generate the proper message (see
2393 -- Sem_Util.Check_Unused_Withs for details)
2395 -- Uninitialized_Variable
2396 -- Present in N_Formal_Private_Type_Definition and in N_Private_
2397 -- Extension_Declarations. Indicates that a variable in a generic unit
2398 -- whose type is a formal private or derived type is read without being
2399 -- initialized. Used to warn if the corresponding actual type is not
2400 -- a fully initialized type.
2403 -- Present in N_Use_Type_Clause nodes. Holds the list of operations that
2404 -- are made potentially use-visible by the clause. Simplifies processing
2405 -- on exit from the scope of the use_type_clause, in particular in the
2406 -- case of Use_All_Type, when those operations several scopes.
2408 -- Was_Attribute_Reference
2409 -- Present in N_Subprogram_Body. Set to True if the original source is an
2410 -- attribute reference which is an actual in a generic instantiation. The
2411 -- instantiation prologue renames these attributes, and expansion later
2412 -- converts them into subprogram bodies.
2414 -- Was_Expression_Function
2415 -- Present in N_Subprogram_Body. True if the original source had an
2416 -- N_Expression_Function, which was converted to the N_Subprogram_Body
2417 -- by Analyze_Expression_Function.
2419 -- Was_Originally_Stub
2420 -- This flag is set in the node for a proper body that replaces stub.
2421 -- During the analysis procedure, stubs in some situations get rewritten
2422 -- by the corresponding bodies, and we set this flag to remember that
2423 -- this happened. Note that it is not good enough to rely on the use of
2424 -- Original_Node here because of the case of nested instantiations where
2425 -- the substituted node can be copied.
2427 --------------------------------------------------
2428 -- Note on Use of End_Label and End_Span Fields --
2429 --------------------------------------------------

2446 -- If Statement end if;
2447 -- Case Statement end case;
2449 -- Record Definition end record;
2450 -- Enumeration Definition );
2452 -- The End_Label and End_Span fields are used to mark the locations of
2453 -- these lines, and also keep track of the label in the case where a label
2456 -- For the first group above, the End_Label field of the corresponding node
2457 -- is used to point to the label identifier. In the case where there is no
2458 -- label in the source, the parser supplies a dummy identifier (with
2459 -- Comes_From_Source set to False), and the Sloc of this dummy identifier
2460 -- marks the location of the token following the END token.
2462 -- For the second group, the use of End_Label is similar, but the End_Label
2463 -- is found in the N_Handled_Sequence_Of_Statements node. This is done
2464 -- simply because in some cases there is no room in the parent node.
2466 -- For the third group, there is never any label, and instead of using
2467 -- End_Label, we use the End_Span field which gives the location of the
2468 -- token following END, relative to the starting Sloc of the construct,
2469 -- i.e. add Sloc (Node) + End_Span (Node) to get the Sloc of the IF or CASE
2470 -- following the End_Label.
2472 -- The record definition case is handled specially, we treat it as though
2473 -- it required an optional label which is never present, and so the parser
2474 -- always builds a dummy identifier with Comes From Source set False. The
2475 -- reason we do this, rather than using End_Span in this case, is that we
2476 -- want to generate a cross-ref entry for the end of a record, since it
2477 -- represents a scope for name declaration purposes.
2479 -- The enumeration definition case is handled in an exactly similar manner,
2480 -- building a dummy identifier to get a cross-reference.
2482 -- Note: the reason we store the difference as a Uint, instead of storing
2483 -- the Source_Ptr value directly, is that Source_Ptr values cannot be
2484 -- distinguished from other types of values, and we count on all general
2485 -- use fields being self describing. To make things easier for clients,
2486 -- note that we provide function End_Location, and procedure
2487 -- Set_End_Location to allow access to the logical value (which is the
2488 -- Source_Ptr value for the end token).

2899 -- attribute in all the parents of subtype_indication nodes to indicate

3943 --------------------------------
3945 -- ATTRIBUTE_REFERENCE ::= PREFIX ' ATTRIBUTE_DESIGNATOR
3947 -- Note: the syntax is quite ambiguous at this point. Consider:
3949 -- A'Length (X) X is part of the attribute designator
3950 -- A'Pos (X) X is an explicit actual parameter of function A'Pos
3951 -- A'Class (X) X is the expression of a type conversion
3953 -- It would be possible for the parser to distinguish these cases
3954 -- by looking at the attribute identifier. However, that would mean
3955 -- more work in introducing new implementation defined attributes,
3956 -- and also it would mean that special processing for attributes
3957 -- would be scattered around, instead of being centralized in the
3958 -- semantic routine that handles an N_Attribute_Reference node.
3959 -- Consequently, the parser in all the above cases stores the
3960 -- expression (X in these examples) as a single element list in
3961 -- in the Expressions field of the N_Attribute_Reference node.
3963 -- Similarly, for attributes like Max which take two arguments,
3964 -- we store the two arguments as a two element list in the
3965 -- Expressions field. Of course it is clear at parse time that
3966 -- this case is really a function call with an attribute as the
3967 -- prefix, but it turns out to be convenient to handle the two
3968 -- argument case in a similar manner to the one argument case,
3969 -- and indeed in general the parser will accept any number of
3970 -- expressions in this position and store them as a list in the
3971 -- attribute reference node. This allows for future addition of
3972 -- attributes that take more than two arguments.
3974 -- Note: named associates are not permitted in function calls where
3975 -- the function is an attribute (see RM 6.4(3)) so it is legitimate
3976 -- to skip the normal subprogram argument processing.
3978 -- Note: for the attributes whose designators are technically keywords,
3979 -- i.e. digits, access, delta, range, the Attribute_Name field contains
3980 -- the corresponding name, even though no identifier is involved.
3982 -- Note: the generated code may contain stream attributes applied to
3983 -- limited types for which no stream routines exist officially. In such
3984 -- case, the result is to use the stream attribute for the underlying
3985 -- full type, or in the case of a protected type, the components
3986 -- (including any discriminants) are merely streamed in order.
3988 -- See Exp_Attr for a complete description of which attributes are
3989 -- passed onto Gigi, and which are handled entirely by the front end.
3991 -- Gigi restriction: For the Pos attribute, the prefix cannot be
3992 -- a non-standard enumeration type or a nonzero/zero semantics
3993 -- boolean type, so the value is simply the stored representation.
3995 -- Gigi requirement: For the Mechanism_Code attribute, if the prefix
3996 -- references a subprogram that is a renaming, then the front end must
3997 -- rewrite the attribute to refer directly to the renamed entity.
3999 -- Note: syntactically the prefix of an attribute reference must be a
4000 -- name, and this (somewhat artificial) requirement is enforced by the
4001 -- parser. However, for many attributes, such as 'Valid, it is quite
4002 -- reasonable to apply the attribute to any value, and hence to any
4003 -- expression. Internally in the tree, the prefix is an expression which
4004 -- does not have to be a name, and this is handled fine by the semantic
4005 -- analysis and expansion, and back ends. This arises for the case of
4006 -- attribute references built by the expander (e.g. 'Valid for the case
4007 -- of an implicit validity check).
4009 -- Note: In generated code, the Address and Unrestricted_Access
4010 -- attributes can be applied to any expression, and the meaning is
4011 -- to create an object containing the value (the object is in the
4012 -- current stack frame), and pass the address of this value. If the
4013 -- Must_Be_Byte_Aligned flag is set, then the object whose address
4014 -- is taken must be on a byte (storage unit) boundary, and if it is
4015 -- not (or may not be), then the generated code must create a copy
4016 -- that is byte aligned, and pass the address of this copy.

4109 -- Note: gigi/gcc can handle array aggregates correctly providing that

4111 -- known at compile time length and is not bit packed, or a convention
4112 -- Fortran array with more than one dimension. If these conditions

4122 -- The other situation in which array aggregates and record aggregates

4124 -- components itself needs expansion, e.g. in the case of an assignment

4364 -- Sloc points to NULL
4365 -- plus fields for expression
4367 -- Second, the case of (EXPRESSION) is handled specially. Ada requires
4368 -- that the parser keep track of which subexpressions are enclosed
4369 -- in parentheses, and how many levels of parentheses are used. This
4370 -- information is required for optimization purposes, and also for
4371 -- some semantic checks (e.g. (((1))) in a procedure spec does not
4372 -- conform with ((((1)))) in the body).
4374 -- The parentheses are recorded by keeping a Paren_Count field in every
4375 -- subexpression node (it is actually present in all nodes, but only
4376 -- used in subexpression nodes). This count records the number of
4377 -- levels of parentheses. If the number of levels in the source exceeds
4378 -- the maximum accommodated by this count, then the count is simply left
4379 -- at the maximum value. This means that there are some pathological
4380 -- cases of failure to detect conformance failures (e.g. an expression
4381 -- with 500 levels of parens will conform with one with 501 levels),
4382 -- but we do not need to lose sleep over this.
4384 -- Historical note: in versions of GNAT prior to 1.75, there was a node
4385 -- type N_Parenthesized_Expression used to accurately record unlimited
4386 -- numbers of levels of parentheses. However, it turned out to be a
4387 -- real nuisance to have to take into account the possible presence of
4388 -- this node during semantic analysis, since basically parentheses have
4389 -- zero relevance to semantic analysis.
4391 -- Note: the level of parentheses always present in things like
4392 -- aggregates does not count, only the parentheses in the primary

4631 -- Note on overflow handling: When the overflow checking mode is set to

4635 -- and we are running in ELIMINATED mode, the operator node will be
4636 -- changed to be a call to the appropriate routine in System.Bignums.
4638 -- Note: In Modify_Tree_For_C mode, we do not generate an N_Op_Mod node

6590 -- The N_Compilation_Unit node itself represents the above syntax.
6591 -- However, there are two additional items not reflected in the above
6592 -- syntax. First we have the global declarations that are added by the
6593 -- code generator. These are outer level declarations (so they cannot
6594 -- be represented as being inside the units). An example is the wrapper
6595 -- subprograms that are created to do ABE checking. As always a list of
6596 -- declarations can contain actions as well (i.e. statements), and such
6597 -- statements are executed as part of the elaboration of the unit. Note
6598 -- that all such declarations are elaborated before the library unit.
6600 -- Similarly, certain actions need to be elaborated at the completion
6601 -- of elaboration of the library unit (notably the statement that sets
6602 -- the Boolean flag indicating that elaboration is complete).
6604 -- The third item not reflected in the syntax is pragmas that appear
6605 -- after the compilation unit. As always pragmas are a problem since
6606 -- they are not part of the formal syntax, but can be stuck into the
6607 -- source following a set of ad hoc rules, and we have to find an ad
6608 -- hoc way of sticking them into the tree. For pragmas that appear
6609 -- before the library unit, we just consider them to be part of the
6610 -- context clause, and pragmas can appear in the Context_Items list
6611 -- of the compilation unit. However, pragmas can also appear after
6612 -- the library item.

6883 -- The AT END phrase is a GNAT extension to provide for cleanups. It is

6885 -- At the moment, the only cleanup action allowed is a single call to a
6886 -- parameterless procedure; this restriction could be lifted if we make
6887 -- some changes in gigi. The At_End_Proc field is an N_Identifier node
6888 -- that denotes the procedure to be called. The cleanup action occurs
6889 -- whenever the sequence of statements is left for any reason. The
6890 -- possible reasons are:
6892 -- 1. reaching the end of the sequence
6893 -- 2. exit, return, or goto
6894 -- 3. exception or abort
6896 -- The cleanup action also occurs whenever the exception handlers are
6899 -- The AT END cleanup handler protects only the sequence of statements
6900 -- and the exception handlers (not the associated declarations of
6901 -- the parent), just like exception handlers do not protect the
6902 -- declarations. The big difference is that the cleanup actions occur
6903 -- on either a normal or an abnormal exit from the statement sequence.
6905 -- At_End_Proc is also a field of various nodes that can contain
6906 -- both Declarations and Handled_Statement_Sequence, such as subprogram
6907 -- bodies and block statements. In that case, the At_End_Proc
6908 -- protects the Declarations as well as the Handled_Statement_Sequence.
6910 -- Note: the list of Exception_Handlers can contain pragmas as well
6911 -- as actual handlers. In practice these pragmas can only occur at
6912 -- the start of the list, since any pragmas occurring later on will
6913 -- be included in the statement list of the corresponding handler.
6915 -- Note: although in the Ada syntax, the sequence of statements in
6916 -- a handled sequence of statements can only contain statements, we
6917 -- allow free mixing of declarations and statements in the resulting

6920 -- statements of a block.
6922 -- Note: the cleanup_procedure_call does not go through the common
6923 -- processing for calls, which in particular means that it will not be
6924 -- automatically inlined in all cases, even though the procedure to be
6925 -- called is marked inline. More specifically, if the procedure comes
6926 -- from another unit than the main source unit, for example a run-time

8051 -- Expression With Actions --
8052 -----------------------------
8054 -- This node is created by the analyzer/expander to handle some
8055 -- expansion cases, notably short-circuit forms where there are
8056 -- actions associated with the right-hand side operand.
8058 -- The N_Expression_With_Actions node represents an expression with
8059 -- an associated set of actions (which are executable statements and
8060 -- declarations, as might occur in a handled statement sequence).
8062 -- The required semantics is that the set of actions is executed in
8063 -- the order in which it appears just before the expression is
8064 -- evaluated (and these actions must only be executed if the value
8065 -- of the expression is evaluated). The node is considered to be
8066 -- a subexpression, whose value is the value of the Expression after
8067 -- executing all the actions.
8069 -- If the actions contain declarations, then these declarations may
8070 -- be referenced within the expression.
8072 -- (AI12-0236-1): In Ada 2022, for a declare_expression, the parser
8073 -- generates an N_Expression_With_Actions. Declare_expressions have
8074 -- various restrictions, which we do not enforce on
8075 -- N_Expression_With_Actions nodes that are generated by the
8076 -- expander. The two cases can be distinguished by looking at
8077 -- Comes_From_Source.
8079 -- ???Perhaps we should change the name of this node to
8080 -- N_Declare_Expression, and perhaps we should change the Sprint syntax
8081 -- to match the RM syntax for declare_expression.
8083 -- Sprint syntax: do
8088 -- in expression end
8090 -- N_Expression_With_Actions
8093 -- plus fields for expression
8095 -- Note: In the final generated tree presented to the code generator,
8096 -- the actions list is always non-null, since there is no point in this
8097 -- node if the actions are Empty. During semantic analysis there are
8098 -- cases where it is convenient to temporarily generate an empty actions
8099 -- list. This arises in cases where we create such an empty actions
8100 -- list, and it may or may not end up being a place where additional
8101 -- actions are inserted. The expander removes such empty cases after
8102 -- the expression of the node is fully analyzed and expanded, at which
8103 -- point it is safe to remove it, since no more actions can be inserted.
8105 -- Note: In Modify_Tree_For_C, we never generate any declarations in
8106 -- the action list, which can contain only non-declarative statements.
8108 --------------------
8109 -- Free Statement --
8110 --------------------
8112 -- The N_Free_Statement node is generated as a result of a call to an
8113 -- instantiation of Unchecked_Deallocation. The instantiation of this
8114 -- generic is handled specially and generates this node directly.
8116 -- Sprint syntax: free expression
8119 -- Sloc is copied from the unchecked deallocation call
8120 -- Expression argument to unchecked deallocation call
8122 -- Procedure_To_Call
8123 -- Actual_Designated_Subtype
8125 -- Note: in the case where a debug source file is generated, the Sloc
8126 -- for this node points to the FREE keyword in the Sprint file output.
8132 -- This node marks the point in a declarative part at which an entity
8133 -- declared therein becomes frozen. The expander places initialization
8134 -- procedures for types at those points. Gigi uses the freezing point
8135 -- to elaborate entities that may depend on previous private types.
8137 -- See the section in Einfo "Delayed Freezing and Elaboration" for
8138 -- a full description of the use of this node.
8140 -- The Entity field points back to the entity for the type (whose
8141 -- Freeze_Node field points back to this freeze node).
8143 -- The Actions field contains a list of declarations and statements
8144 -- generated by the expander which are associated with the freeze
8145 -- node, and are elaborated as though the freeze node were replaced
8146 -- by this sequence of actions.
8148 -- Note: the Sloc field in the freeze node references a construct
8149 -- associated with the freezing point. This is used for posting
8150 -- messages in some error/warning situations, e.g. the case where
8151 -- a primitive operation of a tagged type is declared too late.
8153 -- Sprint syntax: freeze entity-name [
8158 -- Sloc points near freeze point (see above special note)
8160 -- Access_Types_To_Process (set to No_Elist if none)
8161 -- TSS_Elist (set to No_Elist if no associated TSS's)
8162 -- Actions (set to No_List if no freeze actions)
8163 -- First_Subtype_Link (set to Empty if no link)
8165 -- The Actions field holds actions associated with the freeze. These
8166 -- actions are elaborated at the point where the type is frozen.
8168 -- Note: in the case where a debug source file is generated, the Sloc
8169 -- for this node points to the FREEZE keyword in the Sprint file output.
8171 ---------------------------
8172 -- Freeze Generic Entity --
8173 ---------------------------
8175 -- The freeze point of an entity indicates the point at which the
8176 -- information needed to generate code for the entity is complete.
8177 -- The freeze node for an entity triggers expander activities, such as
8178 -- build initialization procedures, and backend activities, such as
8179 -- completing the elaboration of packages.
8181 -- For entities declared within a generic unit, for which no code is
8182 -- generated, the freeze point is not equally meaningful. However, in
8183 -- Ada 2012 several semantic checks on declarations must be delayed to
8184 -- the freeze point, and we need to include such a mark in the tree to
8185 -- trigger these checks. The Freeze_Generic_Entity node plays no other
8186 -- role, and is ignored by the expander and the back-end.

8191 -- Sloc points near freeze point
8194 --------------------------------
8195 -- Implicit Label Declaration --
8196 --------------------------------
8198 -- An implicit label declaration is created for every occurrence of a
8199 -- label on a statement or a label on a block or loop. It is chained
8200 -- in the declarations of the innermost enclosing block as specified
8201 -- in RM section 5.1 (3).
8203 -- The Defining_Identifier is the actual identifier for the statement
8204 -- identifier. Note that the occurrence of the label is a reference, NOT
8205 -- the defining occurrence. The defining occurrence occurs at the head
8206 -- of the innermost enclosing block, and is represented by this node.
8208 -- Note: from the grammar, this might better be called an implicit
8209 -- statement identifier declaration, but the term we choose seems
8210 -- friendlier, since at least informally statement identifiers are
8211 -- called labels in both cases (i.e. when used in labels, and when
8212 -- used as the identifiers of blocks and loops).
8214 -- Note: although this is logically a semantic node, since it does not
8215 -- correspond directly to a source syntax construction, these nodes are
8216 -- actually created by the parser in a post pass done just after parsing
8217 -- is complete, before semantic analysis is started (see Par.Labl).
8219 -- Sprint syntax: labelname : label;
8221 -- N_Implicit_Label_Declaration
8222 -- Sloc points to the << token for a statement identifier, or to the
8223 -- LOOP, DECLARE, or BEGIN token for a loop or block identifier
8224 -- Defining_Identifier
8227 -- Note: in the case where a debug source file is generated, the Sloc
8228 -- for this node points to the label name in the generated declaration.
8230 ---------------------
8231 -- Itype Reference --
8232 ---------------------
8234 -- This node is used to create a reference to an Itype. The only purpose
8235 -- is to make sure the Itype is defined if this is the first reference.
8237 -- A typical use of this node is when an Itype is to be referenced in
8238 -- two branches of an IF statement. In this case it is important that
8239 -- the first use of the Itype not be inside the conditional, since then
8240 -- it might not be defined if the other branch of the IF is taken, in
8241 -- the case where the definition generates elaboration code.
8243 -- The Itype field points to the referenced Itype
8245 -- Sprint syntax: reference itype-name
8247 -- N_Itype_Reference
8248 -- Sloc points to the node generating the reference
8251 -- Note: in the case where a debug source file is generated, the Sloc
8252 -- for this node points to the REFERENCE keyword in the file output.
8254 ---------------------
8255 -- Raise xxx Error --
8256 ---------------------
8258 -- One of these nodes is created during semantic analysis to replace
8259 -- a node for an expression that is determined to definitely raise
8260 -- the corresponding exception.
8262 -- The N_Raise_xxx_Error node may also stand alone in place
8263 -- of a declaration or statement, in which case it simply causes
8264 -- the exception to be raised (i.e. it is equivalent to a raise
8265 -- statement that raises the corresponding exception). This use
8266 -- is distinguished by the fact that the Etype in this case is
8267 -- Standard_Void_Type; in the subexpression case, the Etype is the
8268 -- same as the type of the subexpression which it replaces.
8270 -- If Condition is empty, then the raise is unconditional. If the
8271 -- Condition field is non-empty, it is a boolean expression which is
8272 -- first evaluated, and the exception is raised only if the value of the
8273 -- expression is True. In the unconditional case, the creation of this
8274 -- node is usually accompanied by a warning message (unless it appears
8275 -- within the right operand of a short-circuit form whose left argument
8276 -- is static and decisively eliminates elaboration of the raise
8277 -- operation). The condition field can ONLY be present when the node is
8278 -- used as a statement form; it must NOT be present in the case where
8279 -- the node appears within an expression.
8281 -- The exception is generated with a message that contains the
8282 -- file name and line number, and then appended text. The Reason
8283 -- code shows the text to be added. The Reason code is an element
8284 -- of the type Types.RT_Exception_Code, and indicates both the
8285 -- message to be added, and the exception to be raised (which must
8286 -- match the node type). The value is stored by storing a Uint which
8287 -- is the Pos value of the enumeration element in this type.
8289 -- Gigi restriction: This expander ensures that the type of the
8290 -- Condition field is always Standard.Boolean, even if the type
8291 -- in the source is some non-standard boolean type.

8321 ---------------------------------------------
8322 -- Optimization of Exception Raise to Goto --
8323 ---------------------------------------------
8325 -- In some cases, the front end will determine that any exception raised
8326 -- by the back end for a certain exception should be transformed into a
8329 -- There are three kinds of exceptions raised by the back end (note that
8330 -- for this purpose we consider gigi to be part of the back end in the
8333 -- 1. Exceptions resulting from N_Raise_xxx_Error nodes
8334 -- 2. Exceptions from checks triggered by Do_xxx_Check flags
8335 -- 3. Other cases not specifically marked by the front end
8337 -- Normally all such exceptions are translated into calls to the proper
8338 -- Rcheck_xx procedure, where xx encodes both the exception to be raised
8339 -- and the exception message.
8341 -- The front end may determine that for a particular sequence of code,
8342 -- exceptions in any of these three categories for a particular builtin
8343 -- exception should result in a goto, rather than a call to Rcheck_xx.
8344 -- The exact sequence to be generated is:
8346 -- Local_Raise (exception'Identity);
8349 -- The front end marks such a sequence of code by bracketing it with
8350 -- push and pop nodes:
8352 -- N_Push_xxx_Label (referencing the label)
8354 -- (code where transformation is expected for exception xxx)
8358 -- The use of push/pop reflects the fact that such regions can properly
8359 -- nest, and one special case is a subregion in which no transformation
8360 -- is allowed. Such a region is marked by a N_Push_xxx_Label node whose
8361 -- Exception_Label field is Empty.
8363 -- N_Push_Constraint_Error_Label
8364 -- Sloc references first statement in region covered

8388 -- For a number of purposes, we need to construct references to objects.
8389 -- These references are subsequently treated as normal access values.
8390 -- An example is the construction of the parameter block passed to a
8391 -- task entry. The N_Reference node is provided for this purpose. It is
8392 -- similar in effect to the use of the Unrestricted_Access attribute,
8393 -- and like Unrestricted_Access can be applied to objects which would
8394 -- not be valid prefixes for the Unchecked_Access attribute (e.g.
8395 -- objects which are not aliased, and slices). In addition it can be
8396 -- applied to composite type values as well as objects, including string
8397 -- values and aggregates.
8399 -- Note: we use the Prefix field for this expression so that the
8400 -- resulting node can be treated using common code with the attribute
8401 -- nodes for the 'Access and related attributes. Logically it would make
8402 -- more sense to call it an Expression field, but then we would have to
8403 -- special case the treatment of the N_Reference node.
8405 -- Note: evaluating a N_Reference node is guaranteed to yield a non-null
8406 -- value at run time. Therefore, it is valid to set Is_Known_Non_Null on

8517 -----------------------------------
8519 -- The front end does most of the validation of unchecked conversion,

8521 -- to take advantage of back-annotation of calculated sizes).
8523 -- The front end also deals with specific cases that are not allowed
8524 -- e.g. involving unconstrained array types.
8526 -- For the case of the standard gigi backend, this means that all
