32 -- This package contains the declaration of the basic file control block
33 -- shared between Text_IO, Sequential_IO, Direct_IO and Streams.Stream_IO.
34 -- The actual control blocks are derived from this block by extension. The
35 -- control block is itself derived from Ada.Streams.Root_Stream_Type which
36 -- facilitates implementation of Stream_IO.Stream and Text_Streams.Stream.

42 package System.File_Control_Block is
44 ----------------------------
45 -- Ada File Control Block --
46 ----------------------------
48 -- The Ada file control block is an abstract extension of the root
49 -- stream type. This allows a file to be treated directly as a stream
50 -- for the purposes of Stream_IO, or stream operations on a text file.
51 -- The individual I/O packages extend this type with package specific
52 -- fields to create the concrete types to which the routines in this
53 -- package can be applied.
55 -- The type File_Type in the individual packages is an access to the
56 -- extended file control block. The value is null if the file is not
57 -- open, and a pointer to the control block if the file is open.
59 type Pstring is access all String;
60 -- Used to hold name and form strings
62 type File_Mode is (In_File, Inout_File, Out_File, Append_File);
63 -- File mode (union of file modes permitted by individual packages,
64 -- the types File_Mode in the individual packages are declared to
65 -- allow easy conversion to and from this general type.
67 type Shared_Status_Type is (Yes, No, None);
68 -- This type is used to define the sharing status of a file. The default
69 -- setting of None is used if no "shared=xxx" appears in the form string
70 -- when a file is created or opened. For a file with Shared_Status set to
71 -- None, Use_Error will be raised if any other file is opened or created
72 -- with the same full name. Yes/No are set in response to the presence
73 -- of "shared=yes" or "shared=no" in the form string. In either case it
74 -- is permissible to have multiple files opened with the same full name.
75 -- All files opened simultaneously with "shared=yes" will share the same
76 -- stream with the semantics specified in the RM for file sharing. All
77 -- files opened with "shared=no" will have their own stream.
79 type AFCB is tagged;
80 type AFCB_Ptr is access all AFCB'Class;
82 type AFCB is abstract new Ada.Streams.Root_Stream_Type with record
84 Stream : Interfaces.C_Streams.FILEs;
85 -- The file descriptor
87 Name : Pstring;
88 -- A pointer to the file name. The file name is null for temporary
89 -- files, and also for standard files (stdin, stdout, stderr). The
90 -- name is always null-terminated if it is non-null.
92 Encoding : System.CRTL.Filename_Encoding;
93 -- Encoding used to specified the filename
95 Form : Pstring;
96 -- A pointer to the form string. This is the string used in the
97 -- fopen call, and must be supplied by the caller (there are no
98 -- defaults at this level). The string is always null-terminated.
100 Mode : File_Mode;
101 -- The file mode. No checks are made that the mode is consistent
102 -- with the form used to fopen the file.
104 Is_Regular_File : Boolean;
105 -- A flag indicating if the file is a regular file
107 Is_Temporary_File : Boolean;
108 -- A flag set only for temporary files (i.e. files created using the
109 -- Create function with a null name parameter, using tmpfile). This
110 -- is currently not used since temporary files are deleted by the
111 -- operating system, but it is set properly in case some systems
112 -- need this information in the future.
114 Is_System_File : Boolean;
115 -- A flag set only for system files (stdin, stdout, stderr)
117 Is_Text_File : Boolean;
118 -- A flag set if the file was opened in text mode
120 Shared_Status : Shared_Status_Type;
121 -- Indicates sharing status of file, see description of type above
123 Access_Method : Character;
124 -- Set to 'Q', 'S', 'T, 'D' for Sequential_IO, Stream_IO, Text_IO
125 -- Direct_IO file (used to validate file sharing request).
127 Next : AFCB_Ptr;
128 Prev : AFCB_Ptr;
129 -- All open files are kept on a doubly linked chain, with these
130 -- pointers used to maintain the next and previous pointers.

135 -- Primitive Operations of AFCB --
136 ----------------------------------
138 -- Note that we inherit the abstract operations Read and Write from
139 -- the base type. These must be overridden by the individual file
140 -- access methods to provide Stream Read/Write access.
142 function AFCB_Allocate (Control_Block : AFCB) return AFCB_Ptr is abstract;
143 -- Given a control block, allocate space for a control block of the same
144 -- type on the heap, and return the pointer to this allocated block. Note
145 -- that the argument Control_Block is not used other than as the argument
146 -- that controls which version of AFCB_Allocate is called.
148 procedure AFCB_Close (File : not null access AFCB) is abstract;
149 -- Performs any specialized close actions on a file before the file is
150 -- actually closed at the system level. This is called by Close, and
151 -- the reason we need the primitive operation is for the automatic
152 -- close operations done as part of finalization.
154 procedure AFCB_Free (File : not null access AFCB) is abstract;
155 -- Frees the AFCB referenced by the given parameter. It is not necessary
156 -- to free the strings referenced by the Form and Name fields, but if the
157 -- extension has any other heap objects, they must be freed as well. This
158 -- procedure must be overridden by each individual file package.
