35 package Stringt is
37 -- This package contains routines for handling the strings table which is
38 -- used to store string constants encountered in the source, and also those
39 -- additional string constants generated by compile time concatenation and
40 -- other similar processing.
42 -- A string constant in this table consists of a series of Char_Code values,
43 -- so that 16-bit character codes can be properly handled if this feature
44 -- is implemented in the scanner.
46 -- There is no guarantee that hashing is used in the implementation, although
47 -- it maybe. This means that the caller cannot count on having the same Id
48 -- value for two identical strings stored separately and also cannot count on
49 -- the two Id values being different.

55 procedure Initialize;
56 -- Initializes the strings table for a new compilation. Note that

60 -- Lock internal tables before calling back end
62 procedure Unlock;
63 -- Unlock internal tables, in case back end needs to modify them
65 procedure Mark;

67 -- when computing temporary string values that need not be preserved.

82 -- new string is initialized to be a copy of the given string. A test is

152 -- the code. Codes greater than 16#FF# are output as ["hhhh"] where hhhh

160 -- of strings specified by pragma Linker Option to the ali file. 7-bit
161 -- ASCII graphics (except for double quote) are output literally.
162 -- The double quote appears as two successive double quotes.
163 -- All other codes, are output as described for Write_Char_Code. For
164 -- example, the string created by folding "A" & ASCII.HT & "Hello" will
165 -- print as "A["09"]Hello". A No_String value prints simply as "no string"
166 -- without surrounding quote marks.
