38 -- Handling of Actions Associated with Nodes --
39 -----------------------------------------------
41 -- The evaluation of certain expression nodes involves the elaboration
42 -- of associated types and other declarations, and the execution of
43 -- statement sequences. Expansion routines generating such actions must
44 -- find an appropriate place in the tree to hang the actions so that
45 -- they will be evaluated at the appropriate point.
47 -- Some cases are simple:
49 -- For an expression occurring in a simple statement that is in a list
50 -- of statements, the actions are simply inserted into the list before
51 -- the associated statement.
53 -- For an expression occurring in a declaration (declarations always
54 -- appear in lists), the actions are similarly inserted into the list
55 -- just before the associated declaration.
57 -- The following special cases arise:
59 -- For actions associated with the right operand of a short circuit
60 -- form, the actions are first stored in the short circuit form node
61 -- in the Actions field. The expansion of these forms subsequently
62 -- expands the short circuit forms into if statements which can then
63 -- be moved as described above.
65 -- For actions appearing in the Condition expression of a while loop,
66 -- or an elsif clause, the actions are similarly temporarily stored in
67 -- in the node (N_Elsif_Part or N_Iteration_Scheme) associated with
68 -- the expression using the Condition_Actions field. Subsequently, the
69 -- expansion of these nodes rewrites the control structures involved to
70 -- reposition the actions in normal statement sequence.
72 -- For actions appearing in the then or else expression of a conditional
73 -- expression, these actions are similarly placed in the node, using the
74 -- Then_Actions or Else_Actions field as appropriate. Once again the
75 -- expansion of the N_If_Expression node rewrites the node so that the
76 -- actions can be positioned normally.
78 -- For actions coming from expansion of the expression in an expression
79 -- with actions node, the action is appended to the list of actions.
81 -- Basically what we do is to climb up to the tree looking for the
82 -- proper insertion point, as described by one of the above cases,
83 -- and then insert the appropriate action or actions.
85 -- Note if more than one insert call is made specifying the same
86 -- Assoc_Node, then the actions are elaborated in the order of the
87 -- calls, and this guarantee is preserved for the special cases above.
89 procedure Insert_Action
90 (Assoc_Node : Node_Id;
91 Ins_Action : Node_Id);
92 -- Insert the action Ins_Action at the appropriate point as described
93 -- above. The action is analyzed using the default checks after it is
94 -- inserted. Assoc_Node is the node with which the action is associated.

132 -- the same node, they will each in turn be inserted just after the node.

142 -- the transient scope mechanism. This procedure must be used instead
143 -- of Insert_List_After if Assoc_Node may be in a transient scope.
145 -- Implementation limitation: Assoc_Node must be a statement. We can

149 procedure Insert_Declaration (N : Node_Id; Decl : Node_Id);
150 -- N must be a subexpression (Nkind in N_Subexpr). This is similar to
151 -- Insert_Action (N, Decl), but inserts Decl outside the expression in
152 -- which N appears. This is called Insert_Declaration because the intended
153 -- use is for declarations that have no associated code. We can't go
154 -- moving other kinds of things out of the current expression, since they
155 -- could be executed conditionally (e.g. right operand of short circuit,

173 procedure Activate_Atomic_Synchronization (N : Node_Id);
174 -- N is a node for which atomic synchronization may be required (it is
175 -- either an identifier, expanded name, or selected/indexed component or
176 -- an explicit dereference). The caller has checked the basic conditions
177 -- (atomic variable appearing and Atomic_Sync not disabled). This function
178 -- checks if atomic synchronization is required and if so sets the flag
179 -- and if appropriate generates a warning (in -gnatw.n mode).
181 procedure Adjust_Condition (N : Node_Id);
182 -- The node N is an expression whose root-type is Boolean, and which
183 -- represents a boolean value used as a condition (i.e. a True/False
184 -- value). This routine handles the case of C and Fortran convention
185 -- boolean types, which have zero/non-zero semantics rather than the normal
186 -- 0/1 semantics, and also the case of an enumeration rep clause that
187 -- specifies a non-standard representation. On return, node N always has
188 -- the type Standard.Boolean, with a value that is a standard Boolean
189 -- values of 0/1 for False/True. This procedure is used in two situations.
190 -- First, the processing for a condition field always calls
191 -- Adjust_Condition, so that the boolean value presented to the backend is
192 -- a standard value. Second, for the code for boolean operations such as
193 -- AND, Adjust_Condition is called on both operands, and then the operation
194 -- is done in the domain of Standard_Boolean, then Adjust_Result_Type is
195 -- called on the result to possibly reset the original type. This procedure
196 -- also takes care of validity checking if Validity_Checks = Tests.
198 procedure Adjust_Result_Type (N : Node_Id; T : Entity_Id);
199 -- The processing of boolean operations like AND uses the procedure
200 -- Adjust_Condition so that it can operate on Standard.Boolean, which is
201 -- the only boolean type on which the backend needs to be able to implement
202 -- such operators. This means that the result is also of type
203 -- Standard.Boolean. In general the type must be reset back to the original
204 -- type to get proper semantics, and that is the purpose of this procedure.
205 -- N is the node (of type Standard.Boolean), and T is the desired type. As
206 -- an optimization, this procedure leaves the type as Standard.Boolean in
207 -- contexts where this is permissible (in particular for Condition fields,
208 -- and for operands of other logical operations higher up the tree). The

301 -- component starts on a non-byte boundary, or does not occupy an integral
302 -- number of bytes (i.e. there are some bits possibly shared with fields
303 -- at the start or beginning of the component). The back end cannot handle

310 -- trouble using this function, and if so the assignment is generated
