  64    -- Facilities Provided --
  65    -------------------------
  66
  67    --  The SPITBOL support in GNAT consists of this package together with
  68    --  several child packages. In this package, we have first a set of
  69    --  useful string functions, copied exactly from the corresponding
  70    --  SPITBOL functions, except that we had to rename REVERSE because
  71    --  reverse is a reserved word (it is now Reverse_String).
  72
  73    --  The second element of the parent package is a generic implementation
  74    --  of a table facility. In SPITBOL, the TABLE function allows general
  75    --  mappings from any datatype to any other datatype, and of course, as
  76    --  always, we can freely mix multiple types in the same table.
  77
  78    --  The Ada version of tables is strongly typed, so the indexing type and
  79    --  the range type are always of a consistent type. In this implementation
  80    --  we only provide VString as an indexing type, since this is by far the
  81    --  most common case. The generic instantiation specifies the range type
  82    --  to be used.
  83
  84    --  Three child packages provide standard instantiations of this table
  85    --  package for three common datatypes:
  86
  87    --    GNAT.Spitbol.Table_Boolean     (file g-sptabo.ads)
  88
  89    --      The range type is Boolean. The default value is False. This
  90    --      means that this table is essentially a representation of a set.
  91
  92    --    GNAT.Spitbol.Table_Integer     (file g-sptain.ads)
  93
  94    --      The range type is Integer. The default value is Integer'First.
  95    --      This provides a general mapping from strings to integers.
  96
  97    --    GNAT.Spitbol.Table_VString     (file g-sptavs.ads)
  98
  99    --      The range type is VString. The default value is the null string.
 100    --      This provides a general mapping from strings to strings.
 101
 102    --  Finally there is another child package:
 103
 104    --    GNAT.Spitbol.Patterns          (file g-spipat.ads)
 105
 106    --       This child package provides a complete implementation of SPITBOL
 107    --       pattern matching. The spec contains a complete tutorial on the
 108    --       use of pattern matching.
