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

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

   function File return String with
     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
   --  Return the name of the current file, not including the path information.
   --  The result is considered to be a static string constant.

   function Line return Positive with
     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
   --  Return the current input line number. The result is considered to be a
   --  static expression.

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

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

   function Compilation_Date return String with
     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
   --  Returns date of compilation as a static string "mmm dd yyyy". This is
   --  in local time form, and is exactly compatible with C macro __DATE__.

   function Compilation_Time return String with
     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
   --  Returns GMT time of compilation as a static string "hh:mm:ss". This is
   --  in local time form, and is exactly compatible with C macro __TIME__.
