36 -- This version of Ada.Exceptions is a full Ada 95 version. It omits Ada 2005
37 -- features such as the additional definitions of Exception_Name returning
38 -- Wide_[Wide_]String.
40 -- It is used for building the compiler and the basic tools, since these
41 -- builds may be done with bootstrap compilers that cannot handle these
42 -- additions. The full version of Ada.Exceptions can be found in the files
43 -- a-except-2005.ads/adb, and is used for all other builds where full Ada
44 -- 2005 functionality is required. In particular, it is used for building
45 -- run times on all targets.
50 -- We must turn polling off for this unit, because otherwise we get
51 -- elaboration circularities with ourself.

222 -- Polling Interface --
223 -----------------------
225 -- The GNAT compiler has an option to generate polling calls to the Poll
226 -- routine in this package. Specifying the -gnatP option for a compilation
227 -- causes a call to Ada.Exceptions.Poll to be generated on every subprogram
228 -- entry and on every iteration of a loop, thus avoiding the possibility of
229 -- a case of unbounded time between calls.
231 -- This polling interface may be used for instrumentation or debugging
232 -- purposes (e.g. implementing watchpoints in software or in the debugger).
234 -- In the GNAT technology itself, this interface is used to implement
235 -- immediate asynchronous transfer of control and immediate abort on
236 -- targets which do not provide for one thread interrupting another.
238 -- Note: this used to be in a separate unit called System.Poll, but that
239 -- caused horrible circular elaboration problems between System.Poll and
240 -- Ada.Exceptions. One way of solving such circularities is unification!
243 -- Check for asynchronous abort. Note that we do not inline the body.
244 -- This makes the interface more useful for debugging purposes.
