package Asis.Data_Decomposition is
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  Asis.Data_Decomposition
--
--  This package is optional.
--
--  Operations to decompose data values using the ASIS type information and a
--  Portable_Data stream, representing a data value of that type.
--
--  An application can write data, using the
--  Asis.Data_Decomposition.Portable_Transfer package to an external medium
--  for later retrieval by another application.  The second application reads
--  that data and then uses this package to convert that data into useful
--  information.  Simple discrete scalar types can be converted directly into
--  useful information.  Composite types, such as records and arrays,
--  shall first be broken into their various discriminants and components.
--
--  A data stream representing a record value can be decomposed into a group
--  of discriminant and component data streams by extracting those streams
--  from the record's data stream.  This extraction is performed by applying
--  any of the Record_Components which describe the discriminants and
--  components of the record type.  Each discriminant and each component of a
--  record type is described by a Record_Component value.  Each value
--  encapsulates the information needed, by the implementation, to efficiently
--  extract the associated field from a data stream representing a record
--  value of the correct type.
--
--  A data stream representing an array value can be decomposed into a group
--  of component data streams by extracting those streams from the array's
--  data stream.  This extraction is performed by applying the single
--  Array_Component which describes the components of the array type.  One
--  Array_Component value is used to describe all array components.  The value
--  encapsulates the information needed, by the implementation, to efficiently
--  extract any of the array components.
--
--  Assumptions and Limitations of this Interface:
--
--  a) The data stream is appropriate for the ASIS host machine.  For example,
--     the implementation of this interface will not need to worry about
--     byte flipping or reordering of bits caused by movement of data between
--     machine architectures.
--
--  b) Records, arrays, and their components may be packed.
--
--  c) Records, array components, enumerations, and scalar types may have
--     representation and length clauses applied to them.  This includes scalar
--     types used as record discriminants and array indices.
--
--  d) This specification supports two of the three type models discussed
--     below.  Models A and B are supported.  Model C is not supported.
--
--     1) Simple "static" types contain no variants, have a single fixed 'Size,
--        and all components and attributes are themselves static and/or fully
--        constrained.  The size and position for any component of the type
--        can be determined without regard to constraints.  For example:
--
--           type Static_Record is
--               record
--                   F1, F2 : Natural;
--                   C1     : Wide_Character;
--                   A1     : Wide_String (1..5);
--               end record;
--
--           type Static_Discriminated (X : Boolean) is
--               record
--                   F1, F2 : Natural;
--                   C1     : Wide_Character;
--               end record;
--
--           type Static_Array   is array (Integer range 1 .. 100) of Boolean;
--           type Static_Enum    is (One, Two, Three);
--           type Static_Integer is range 1 .. 512;
--           type Static_Float   is digits 15 range -100.0 .. 100.0;
--           type Static_Fixed   is delta 0.1 range -100.0 .. 100.0;
--
--     2) Simple "dynamic" types contain one or more components or attributes
--        whose size, position, or value depends on the value of one or more
--        constraints computed at execution time.  This means that the size,
--        position, or number of components within the data type cannot be
--        determined without reference to constraint values.
--
--        Records containing components, whose size depends on discriminants
--        of the record, can be handled because the discriminants for a record
--        value are fully specified by the data stream form of the record
--        value. For example:
--
--            type Dynamic_Length (Length : Natural) is
--                record
--                    S1 : Wide_String (1 .. Length);
--                end record;
--
--            type Dynamic_Variant (When : Boolean) is
--                record
--                    case When is
--                        when True =>
--                            C1 : Wide_Character;
--                        when False =>
--                            null;
--                    end case;
--                end record;
--
--        Arrays with an unconstrained subtype, whose 'Length, 'First, and
--        'Last depend on dynamic index constraints, can be handled because
--        these attributes can be queried and stored when the data stream is
--        written. For example:
--
--             I : Integer := Some_Function;
--             type Dynamic_Array is
--                 array (Integer range I .. I + 10) of Boolean;
--
--             type Heap_Array   is array (Integer range <>) of Boolean;
--             type Access_Array is access Heap_Array;
--             X : Access_Array := new Heap_Array (1 .. 100);
--
--     3) Complex, externally "discriminated" records, contain one or more
--        components whose size or position depends on the value of one or
--        more non-static external values (values not stored within instances
--        of the type) at execution time.  The size for a value of the type
--        cannot be determined without reference to these external values,
--        whose runtime values are not known to the ASIS Context and cannot be
--        automatically recorded by the
--        Asis.Data_Decomposition.Portable_Transfer generics. For example:
--
--            N : Natural := Function_Call();
--            ....
--            declare
--                type Complex is
--                    record
--                        S1 : Wide_String (1 .. N);
--                    end record;
--            begin
--                ....
--            end;
--
--
--  General Usage Rules:
--
--  All operations in this package will attempt to detect the use of invalid
--  data streams.  A data stream is "invalid" if an operation determines that
--  the stream could not possibly represent a value of the expected variety.
--  Possible errors are: stream is of incorrect length, stream contains bit
--  patterns which are illegal, etc.  The exception ASIS_Inappropriate_Element
--  is raised in these cases.  The Status value is Data_Error.  The
--  Diagnosis string will indicate the kind of error detected.
--
--  All implementations will handle arrays with a minimum of 16 dimensions,
--  or the number of dimensions allowed by their compiler, whichever is
--  smaller.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.1 type Record_Component
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  Record_Component
--
--  Describes one discriminant or component of a record type.  Implementation
--  is highly implementation dependent.  The "=" operator is not meaningful
--  between Record_Component values unless one of them is the
--  Nil_Record_Component value.
--
--  A record type describes composite values which contain zero or more
--  discriminant and component fields.  A_Record_Type_Definition can be
--  queried to obtain a list of Record_Components.  Each Record_Component
--  contains the information necessary to extract one discriminant or
--  component field of the record.
--
--  Record_Components are intended for use with data stream extraction
--  operations.  An extraction operation is performed using a Record_Component,
--  in conjunction with a data stream representing a value of the record type.
--  The record data stream contains data for all fields of the record.  The
--  result is an extracted data stream representing just the value of the one
--  field.  Record_Components are implemented so as to allow for efficient
--  extraction of field values.
--
--  An extracted field data stream is suitable for all uses.  If the field is a
--  scalar type, it can be converted directly into useful information.  If the
--  field is, in turn, another composite value, it can be further decomposed
--  into its own component values.
--
--  There are two ways to obtain the Record_Components or the Array_Component
--  needed to further decompose an embedded composite field.  First, if the
--  type of the field is known, the type definition can be directly queried to
--  obtain the Record_Components or the Array_Component that describe its
--  internal structure.  Second, the Record_Component used to extract the field
--  can be queried to obtain the same Record_Components or the same
--  Array_Component.  Both methods return identical information.
--
--  This kind of nested decomposition can be carried to any required level.
--
--  Record_Components become invalid when the Context, from which they
--  originate, is closed.  All Record_Components are obtained by referencing a)
--  an Element, which has an associated Context, b) another Record_Component,
--  or c) an Array_Component.  Ultimately, all component values originate from
--  a A_Type_Definition Element; that Element determines their Context of
--  origin.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.2 type Record_Component_List
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   type Record_Component_List is
      array (Asis.List_Index range <>) of Record_Component;


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.3 type Array_Component
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  Array_Component
--
--  Describes the components of an array valued field for a record type.
--  Implementation is highly implementor dependent.  The "=" operator is not
--  meaningful between Array_Component values unless one of them is the
--  Nil_Array_Component value.
--
--  An array type describes composite values which contain zero or more indexed
--  components. Both An_Unconstrained_Array_Definition or
--  A_Constrained_Array_Definition can be queried to obtain a single
--  Array_Component. The Array_Component contains the information necessary to
--  extract any arbitrary component of the array.
--
--  Array_Components are intended for use with data stream extraction
--  operations.  An extraction operation is performed using an Array_Component,
--  in conjunction with a data stream representing a value of the array type.
--  The array data stream contains data for all components of the array.  The
--  result is an extracted data stream representing just the value of the one
--  component.  Array_Components are implemented so as to allow for efficient
--  extraction of array component values.
--
--  An extracted component data stream is suitable for all uses.  If the
--  component is a scalar type, it can be converted directly into useful
--  information.  If the component is, in turn, another composite value, it can
--  be further decomposed into its own component values.
--
--  There are two ways to obtain the Record_Components or the Array_Component
--  needed to further decompose an embedded composite component.  First, if the
--  type of the component is known, the type definition can be directly queried
--  to obtain the Record_Components or the Array_Component that describe its
--  internal structure.  Second, the Array_Component used to extract the
--  component can be queried to obtain the same Record_Components or the same
--  Array_Component.  Both methods return identical information.
--
--  This kind of nested decomposition can be carried to any required level.
--
--  Array_Components become invalid when the Context, from which they
--  originate, is closed.  All Record_Components are obtained by referencing a)
--  an Element, which has an associated Context, b) a Record_Component, or c)
--  another Array_Component.  Ultimately, all component values originate from a
--  A_Type_Definition Element; that Element determines their Context of origin.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.4 type Array_Component_List
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   type Array_Component_List is
      array (Asis.List_Index range <>) of Array_Component;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.5 type Dimension_Indexes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  Dimension_Indexes - an array of index values used to access an array stream
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   type Dimension_Indexes is
      array (Asis.ASIS_Positive range <>) of Asis.ASIS_Positive;


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.6 type Array_Component_Iterator
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  Array_Component_Iterator - Used to iterate over successive components of an
--  array.  This can be more efficient than using individual index values when
--  extracting array components from a data stream because it substitutes two
--  subroutine calls (Next and Done) for the multiplications and divisions
--  implicit in indexing an N dimensional array with a single index value.
--
--  Iterators can be copied.  The copies operate independently (have separate
--  state).
--
--  An example:
--
--   declare
--       Component        : Array_Component := ...;
--       Iter             : Array_Component_Iterator;
--       Array_Stream     : Portable_Data (...) := ...;
--       Component_Stream : Portable_Data (...);
--   begin
--       Iter := Array_Iterator (Component);
--       while not Done (Iter) loop
--           Component_Stream := Component_Data_Stream (Iter, Array_Stream);
--           Next (Iter);
--       end loop;
--   end;

   Nil_Array_Component_Iterator : constant Array_Component_Iterator;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--  22.7 type Portable_Data
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
--  Portable Data Representation - an ordered "stream" of data values
--
--  The portable representation for application data is an array of data
--  values.  This portable data representation is guaranteed to be valid when
--  written, and later read, on the same machine architecture, using the same
--  implementor's compiler and runtime system.  Portability of the data
--  values, across implementations and architectures, is not guaranteed.
--  Some implementors may be able to provide data values which are portable
--  across a larger subset of their supported machine architectures.
--
--  Some of the problems encountered when changing architectures are: bit
--  order, byte order, floating point representation, and alignment
--  constraints.  Some of the problems encountered when changing runtime
--  systems or implementations are: type representation, optimization,
--  record padding, and other I/O subsystem implementation variations.
--
--  The nature of these data values is deliberately unspecified.  An
--  implementor will choose a data value type that is suitable for the
--  expected uses of these arrays and data values.  Arrays and data
--  values have these uses:
--
--   a) Array values are used in conjunction with the
--      Asis.Data_Decomposition interface.  The data value type should be
--      readily decomposable, by that package, so that array and record
--      components can be efficiently extracted from a data stream represented
--      by this array type.  The efficiency of that interface is a priority.
--
--   b) The data value type is read and written by applications.  It
--      should have a size that makes efficient I/O possible.  Applications can
--      be expected to perform I/O in any or all of these ways:
--
--       1) Ada.Sequential_Io or Ada.Direct_Io could be used to read or write
--          these values.
--
--       2) Individual values may be placed inside other types and those types
--          may be read or written.
--
--       3) The 'Address of a data value, plus the 'Size of the data value
--          type, may be used to perform low level system I/O.  Note: This
--          requires the 'Size of the type and the 'Size of a variable of that
--          type to be the same for some implementations.
--
--       4) Individual values may be passed through Unchecked_Conversion in
--          order to obtain a different value type, of the same 'Size, suitable
--          for use with some user I/O facility.  This usage is non-portable
--          across implementations.
--
--   c) Array values are read and written by applications.  The data value
--      type should have a size that makes efficient I/O possible.
--      Applications can be expected to perform I/O in any or all of these
--      ways:
--
--       1) Ada.Sequential_Io or Ada.Direct_Io could be used to read or write a
--          constrained array subtype.
--
--       2) Array values may be placed inside other types and those types may
--          be read and written.
--
--       3) The 'Address of the first array value, plus the 'Length of the
--          array times the 'Size of the values, may be used to perform low
--          level system I/O.  Note: This implies that the array type is
--          unpacked, or, that the packed array type has no "padding" (e.g.,
--          groups of five 6-bit values packed into 32-bit words with 2 bits
--          of padding every 5 elements).
--
--       4) Array values may be passed through Unchecked_Conversion in order to
--          obtain an array value, with a different value type, suitable for
--          use with some user I/O facility.  This usage is non-portable across
--          implementations.
--
--  The data value type should be chosen so that the 'Address of the first
--  array data value is also the 'Address of the first storage unit containing
--  array data.  This is especially necessary for target architectures where
--  the "bit" instructions address bits in the opposite direction as that used
--  by normal machine memory (or array component) indexing.  A recommended
--  'Size is System.Storage_Unit (or a multiple of that size).
--
--  Implementations that do not support Unchecked_Conversion of array values,
--  or which do not guarantee that Unchecked_Conversion of array values will
--  always "do the right thing" (convert only the data, and not the dope vector
--  information), should provide warnings in their ASIS documentation that
--  detail possible consequences and work-arounds.
--
--  The index range for the Portable_Data type shall be a numeric type whose
--  range is large enough to encompass the Portable_Data representation for all
--  possible runtime data values.
--
--  All conversion interfaces always return Portable_Data array values with a
--  'First of one (1).
--
--  The Portable_Value type may be implemented in any way
--  whatsoever.  It need not be a numeric type.
