34 -- This unit defines the packed decimal format used by GNAT in response to
35 -- a specication of Machine_Radix 10 for a decimal fixed-point type. The
36 -- format and operations are completely encapsulated in this unit, so all
37 -- that is necessary to compile using different packed decimal formats is
38 -- to replace this single unit.
40 -- Note that the compiler access the spec of this unit during compilation
41 -- to obtain the data length that needs allocating, so the correct version
42 -- of the spec must be available to the compiler, and must correspond to
43 -- the spec and body made available to the linker, and all units of a given
44 -- program must be compiled with the same version of the spec and body.
45 -- This consistency will be enforced automatically using the normal binder
46 -- consistency checking, since any unit declaring Machine_Radix 10 types or
47 -- containing operations on such data will implicitly with Packed_Decimal.

54 -- Format Description --
55 ------------------------
57 -- IBM Mainframe packed decimal format uses a byte string of length one
58 -- to 10 bytes, with the most significant byte first. Each byte contains
59 -- two decimal digits (with the high order digit in the left nibble, and
60 -- the low order four bits contain the sign, using the following code:
62 -- 16#A# 2#1010# positive
63 -- 16#B# 2#1011# negative
64 -- 16#C# 2#1100# positive (preferred representation)
65 -- 16#D# 2#1101# negative (preferred representation)
66 -- 16#E# 2#1110# positive
67 -- 16#F# 2#1011# positive
69 -- In this package, all six sign representations are interpreted as
70 -- shown above when an operand is read, when an operand is written,
71 -- the preferred representations are always used. Constraint_Error
72 -- is raised if any other bit pattern is found in the sign nibble,
73 -- or if a digit nibble contains an invalid digit code.
75 -- Some examples follow:
79 -- 00 04 4E +44 (non-standard sign)
80 -- 00 00 00 invalid (incorrect sign nibble)
81 -- 0A 01 1C invalid (bad digit)
87 -- The following array must be declared in exactly the form shown, since
88 -- the compiler accesses the associated tree to determine the size to be
89 -- allocated to a machine radix 10 type, depending on the number of digits.
