35 -- This procedure implements file name crunching
37 -- First, the name is divided into segments separated by minus signs and
38 -- underscores, then all minus signs and underscores are eliminated. If
39 -- this leaves the name short enough, we are done.
41 -- If not, then the longest segment is located (left-most if there are
42 -- two of equal length), and shortened by dropping its last character.
43 -- This is repeated until the name is short enough.
45 -- As an example, consider the krunch of our-strings-wide_fixed.adb
46 -- to fit the name into 8 characters as required by DOS:
48 -- our-strings-wide_fixed 22
49 -- our strings wide fixed 19
50 -- our string wide fixed 18
51 -- our strin wide fixed 17
52 -- our stri wide fixed 16
53 -- our stri wide fixe 15
54 -- our str wide fixe 14
55 -- our str wid fixe 13
56 -- our str wid fix 12
57 -- ou str wid fix 11
58 -- ou st wid fix 10
59 -- ou st wi fix 9
60 -- ou st wi fi 8
62 -- Final file name: OUSTWIFX.ADB
64 -- A special rule applies for children of System, Ada, Gnat, and Interfaces.
65 -- In these cases, the following special prefix replacements occur:
67 -- ada- replaced by a-
68 -- gnat- replaced by g-
69 -- interfaces- replaced by i-
70 -- system- replaced by s-
72 -- The rest of the name is krunched in the usual manner described above.
73 -- In addition, these names, as well as the names of the renamed packages
74 -- from the obsolescent features annex, are always krunched to 8 characters
75 -- regardless of the setting of Maxlen.
77 -- As an example of this special rule, consider ada-strings-wide_fixed.adb
78 -- which gets krunched as follows:
80 -- ada-strings-wide_fixed 22
81 -- a- strings wide fixed 18
82 -- a- string wide fixed 17
83 -- a- strin wide fixed 16
84 -- a- stri wide fixed 15
85 -- a- stri wide fixe 14
86 -- a- str wide fixe 13
87 -- a- str wid fixe 12
88 -- a- str wid fix 11
89 -- a- st wid fix 10
90 -- a- st wi fix 9
91 -- a- st wi fi 8
93 -- Final file name: A-STWIFX.ADB
95 -- Since children of units named A, G, I or S might conflict with the names
96 -- of predefined units, the naming rule in that case is that the first hyphen
97 -- is replaced by a tilde sign.
99 -- Note: as described below, this special treatment of predefined library
100 -- unit file names can be inhibited by setting the No_Predef flag.
102 -- Of course there is no guarantee that this algorithm results in uniquely
103 -- crunched names (nor, obviously, is there any algorithm which would do so)
104 -- In fact we run into such a case in the standard library routines with
105 -- children of Wide_Text_IO, so a special rule is applied to deal with this
106 -- clash, namely the prefix ada-wide_text_io- is replaced by a-wt- and then
107 -- the normal crunching rules are applied, so that for example, the unit:
109 -- Ada.Wide_Text_IO.Float_IO
111 -- has the file name
113 -- a-wtflio
115 -- This is the only irregularity required (so far!) to keep the file names
116 -- unique in the standard predefined libraries.
118 procedure Krunch
119 (Buffer : in out String;
120 Len : in out Natural;
121 Maxlen : Natural;
122 No_Predef : Boolean);
123 pragma Elaborate_Body (Krunch);
124 -- The full file name is stored in Buffer (1 .. Len) on entry. The file
125 -- name is crunched in place and on return Len is updated, so that the
126 -- resulting krunched name is in Buffer (1 .. Len) where Len <= Maxlen.
127 -- Note that Len may be less than or equal to Maxlen on entry, in which
128 -- case it may be possible that Krunch does not modify Buffer. The fourth
129 -- parameter, No_Predef, is a switch which, if set to True, disables the
130 -- normal special treatment of predefined library unit file names.
132 -- Note: the string Buffer must have a lower bound of 1, and may not
133 -- contain any blanks (in particular, it must not have leading blanks).
