26 -- This package provides support for numerical systems with dimensions. A
27 -- "dimension" is a compile-time property of a numerical type which represents
28 -- a relation between various quantifiers such as length, velocity, etc.
30 -- Package System.Dim.Mks offers a ready-to-use system of SI base units. In
31 -- addition, the implementation of this feature offers the ability to define
32 -- an arbitrary system of units through the use of Ada 2012 aspects.
34 -- Dimensionality checking is part of type analysis performed by the compiler.
35 -- It ensures that manipulation of quantified numeric values is sensible with
36 -- respect to the system of units.
38 -----------------------------
39 -- Aspect_Dimension_System --
40 -----------------------------
42 -- In order to enable the user to create their own dimension system, a new
43 -- aspect: Aspect_Dimension_System has been created.
45 -- Note that this aspect applies for type declaration of type derived from any
48 -- It defines the names of each dimension
50 ----------------------
51 -- Aspect_Dimension --
52 ----------------------
54 -- This new aspect applies for subtype and object declarations in order to
55 -- define new dimensions.
57 -- Using this aspect, the user is able to create new subtype/object with any
60 -- Note that the base type of the subtype/object must be the type that defines
61 -- the corresponding dimension system.
63 -- The expression of this aspect is an aggregate of rational values for each
64 -- dimension in the corresponding dimension system.
66 -------------------------------------------
67 -- Dimensionality checking & propagation --
68 -------------------------------------------
70 -- For each node (when needed), a dimension analysis (Analyze_Dimension) is
71 -- performed as part of the Resolution routine or the Analysis routine if no
74 -- The dimension analysis is divided into two phases:
76 -- Phase 1: dimension checking
78 -- Phase 2: propagation of dimensions
80 -- Depending on the node kind, either none, one phase or two phases are
83 -- Phase 2 is called only when the node allows a dimension (see body of
84 -- Sem_Dim to get the list of nodes that permit dimensions).
