32 -- This package contains routines for scanning decimal values where the size
33 -- of the type is no greater than Standard.Integer'Size, for use in Text_IO.

39 function Scan_Decimal
40 (Str : String;
41 Ptr : not null access Integer;
42 Max : Integer;
43 Scale : Integer) return Integer;
44 -- This function scans the string starting at Str (Ptr.all) for a valid
45 -- real literal according to the syntax described in (RM 3.5(43)). The
46 -- substring scanned extends no further than Str (Max). There are three
47 -- cases for the return:
49 -- If a valid real literal is found after scanning past any initial spaces,
50 -- then Ptr.all is updated past the last character of the literal (but
51 -- trailing spaces are not scanned out). The value returned is the value
52 -- Integer'Integer_Value (decimal-literal-value), using the given Scale
53 -- to determine this value.
55 -- If no valid real literal is found, then Ptr.all points either to an
56 -- initial non-digit character, or to Max + 1 if the field is all spaces
57 -- and the exception Constraint_Error is raised.
59 -- If a syntactically valid integer is scanned, but the value is out of
60 -- range, or, in the based case, the base value is out of range or there
61 -- is an out of range digit, then Ptr.all points past the integer, and
62 -- Constraint_Error is raised.
64 -- Note: these rules correspond to the requirements for leaving the
65 -- pointer positioned in Text_Io.Get
67 -- Note: if Str is null, i.e. if Max is less than Ptr, then this is a
68 -- special case of an all-blank string, and Ptr is unchanged, and hence
69 -- is greater than Max as required in this case.
71 function Value_Decimal (Str : String; Scale : Integer) return Integer;
72 -- Used in computing X'Value (Str) where X is a decimal fixed-point type
73 -- whose size does not exceed Standard.Integer'Size. Str is the string
74 -- argument of the attribute. Constraint_Error is raised if the string
75 -- is malformed or if the value is out of range of Integer (not the
76 -- range of the fixed-point type, that check must be done by the caller.
77 -- Otherwise the value returned is the value Integer'Integer_Value
78 -- (decimal-literal-value), using Scale to determine this value.
