  32 --  This package provides some useful utility subprograms that provide access
  33 --  to source code information known at compile time. These subprograms are
  34 --  intrinsic operations that provide information known to the compiler in
  35 --  a form that can be embedded into the source program for identification
  36 --  and logging purposes. For example, an exception handler can print out
  37 --  the name of the source file in which the exception is handled.

  39 package GNAT.Source_Info is
  40    pragma Preelaborate;
  41    --  Note that this unit is Preelaborate, but not Pure, that's because the
  42    --  functions here such as Line are clearly not pure functions, and normally
  43    --  we mark intrinsic functions in a Pure unit as Pure, even though they are
  44    --  imported.
  45    --
  46    --  Historical note: this used to be Pure, but that was when we marked all
  47    --  intrinsics as not Pure, even in Pure units, so no problems arose.

  50      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;

  53
  54    function Line return Positive with
  55      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;

  57    --  static expression.

  59    function Source_Location return String with
  60      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
  61    --  Return a string literal of the form "name:line", where name is the
  62    --  current source file name without path information, and line is the
  63    --  current line number. In the event that instantiations are involved,
  64    --  additional suffixes of the same form are appended after the separating
  65    --  string " instantiated at ". The result is considered to be a static
  66    --  string constant.

  69      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
  70    --  Return the name of the current subprogram, package, task, entry or
  71    --  protected subprogram. The string is in exactly the form used for the
  72    --  declaration of the entity (casing and encoding conventions), and is
  73    --  considered to be a static string constant. The name is fully qualified
  74    --  using periods where possible (this is not always possible, notably in
  75    --  the case of entities appearing in unnamed block statements.)
  76    --
  77    --  Note: if this function is used at the outer level of a generic package,
  78    --  the string returned will be the name of the instance, not the generic
  79    --  package itself. This is useful in identifying and logging information
  80    --  from within generic templates.

  83      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;

  88      Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
