  35 --  other layered utilities.

  46    --  representation of an unbounded string as well as the actual current
  47    --  length (which may be less than S.all'Length because in general there
  48    --  can be extra space assigned). The characters of this string may be
  49    --  not be modified via the returned pointer,  and are valid only as
  50    --  long as the original unbounded string is not accessed or modified.
  51    --
  52    --  This procedure is more efficient than the use of To_Wide_Wide_String
  53    --  since it avoids the need to copy the string. The lower bound of the
  54    --  referenced string returned by this call is always one, so the actual
  55    --  string data is always accessible as S (1 .. L).

  63    --  than the use of To_Unbounded_Wide_Wide_String with an assignment, since
  64    --  it avoids the necessity of messing with finalization chains. The lower
  65    --  bound of the string S is not required to be one.
