is
39 procedure Normalize_String
42 -- This procedure scans the string S setting F to be the index of the first
43 -- non-blank character of S and L to be the index of the last non-blank
44 -- character of S. Any lower case characters present in S will be folded
45 -- to their upper case equivalent except for character literals. If S
46 -- consists of entirely blanks then Constraint_Error is raised.
48 -- Note: if S is the null string, F is set to S'First, L to S'Last
55 Start
: out Positive);
56 -- The Str, Ptr, Max parameters are as for the scan routines (Str is the
57 -- string to be scanned starting at Ptr.all, and Max is the index of the
58 -- last character in the string). Scan_Sign first scans out any initial
59 -- blanks, raising Constraint_Error if the field is all blank. It then
60 -- checks for and skips an initial plus or minus, requiring a non-blank
61 -- character to follow (Constraint_Error is raised if plus or minus
62 -- appears at the end of the string or with a following blank). Minus is
63 -- set True if a minus sign was skipped, and False otherwise. On exit
64 -- Ptr.all points to the character after the sign, or to the first
65 -- non-blank character if no sign is present. Start is set to the point
66 -- to the first non-blank character (sign or digit after it).
68 -- Note: if Str is null, i.e. if Max is less than Ptr, then this is a
69 -- special case of an all-blank string, and Ptr is unchanged, and hence
70 -- is greater than Max as required in this case. Constraint_Error is
71 -- also raised in this case.
73 procedure Scan_Plus_Sign
77 Start
: out Positive);
78 -- Same as Scan_Sign, but allows only plus, not minus.
79 -- This is used for modular types.
81 function Scan_Exponent
85 Real
: Boolean := False) return Integer;
86 -- Called to scan a possible exponent. Str, Ptr, Max are as described above
87 -- for Scan_Sign. If Ptr.all < Max and Str (Ptr.all) = 'E' or 'e', then an
88 -- exponent is scanned out, with the exponent value returned in Exp, and
89 -- Ptr.all updated to point past the exponent. If the exponent field is
90 -- incorrectly formed or not present, then Ptr.all is unchanged, and the
91 -- returned exponent value is zero. Real indicates whether a minus sign
92 -- is permitted (True = permitted). Very large exponents are handled by
93 -- returning a suitable large value. If the base is zero, then any value
94 -- is allowed, and otherwise the large value will either cause underflow
95 -- or overflow during the scaling process which is fine.
97 procedure Scan_Trailing_Blanks
(Str
: String; P
: Positive);
98 -- Checks that the remainder of the field Str (P .. Str'Last) is all
99 -- blanks. Raises Constraint_Error if a non-blank character is found.
101 procedure Scan_Underscore
104 Ptr
: access Integer;
107 -- Called if an underscore is encountered while scanning digits. Str (P)
108 -- contains the underscore. Ptr it the pointer to be returned to the
109 -- ultimate caller of the scan routine, Max is the maximum subscript in
110 -- Str, and Ext indicates if extended digits are allowed. In the case
111 -- where the underscore is invalid, Constraint_Error is raised with Ptr
112 -- set appropriately, otherwise control returns with P incremented past
