34 -- This package contains routines for scanning decimal values where the size
35 -- of the type is greater than Standard.Integer'Size, for use in Text_IO.
36 -- Decimal_IO, and the Value attribute for such decimal types.
38 package System.Val_LLD is
39 pragma Pure (Val_LLD);
41 function Scan_Long_Long_Decimal
42 (Str : String;
43 Ptr : access Integer;
44 Max : Integer;
45 Scale : Integer)
46 return Long_Long_Integer;
47 -- This function scans the string starting at Str (Ptr.all) for a valid
48 -- real literal according to the syntax described in (RM 3.5(43)). The
49 -- substring scanned extends no further than Str (Max). There are three
50 -- cases for the return:
52 -- If a valid real literal is found after scanning past any initial spaces,
53 -- then Ptr.all is updated past the last character of the literal (but
54 -- trailing spaces are not scanned out). The value returned is the value
55 -- Long_Long_Integer'Integer_Value (decimal-literal-value), using the given
56 -- Scale to determine this value.
58 -- If no valid real literal is found, then Ptr.all points either to an
59 -- initial non-digit character, or to Max + 1 if the field is all spaces
60 -- and the exception Constraint_Error is raised.
62 -- If a syntactically valid integer is scanned, but the value is out of
63 -- range, or, in the based case, the base value is out of range or there
64 -- is an out of range digit, then Ptr.all points past the integer, and
65 -- Constraint_Error is raised.
67 -- Note: these rules correspond to the requirements for leaving the
68 -- pointer positioned in Text_Io.Get
70 -- Note: if Str is null, i.e. if Max is less than Ptr, then this is a
71 -- special case of an all-blank string, and Ptr is unchanged, and hence
72 -- is greater than Max as required in this case.
74 function Value_Long_Long_Decimal
75 (Str : String;
76 Scale : Integer)
77 return Long_Long_Integer;
78 -- Used in computing X'Value (Str) where X is a decimal types whose size
79 -- exceeds Standard.Integer'Size. Str is the string argument of the
80 -- attribute. Constraint_Error is raised if the string is malformed
81 -- or if the value is out of range, otherwise the value returned is the
82 -- value Long_Long_Integer'Integer_Value (decimal-literal-value), using
83 -- the given Scale to determine this value.
