+
+-- This package is intended to be used in conjunction with its parent unit,
+-- Ada.Command_Line. It provides facilities for logically removing arguments
+-- from the command line, so that subsequent calls to Argument_Count and
+-- Argument will reflect the removals.
+
+-- For example, if the original command line has three arguments A B C, so
+-- that Argument_Count is initially three, then after removing B, the second
+-- argument, Argument_Count will be 2, and Argument (2) will return C.
+
+package Ada.Command_Line.Remove is
+pragma Preelaborate (Remove);
+
+ procedure Remove_Argument (Number : in Positive);
+ -- Removes the argument identified by Number, which must be in the
+ -- range 1 .. Argument_Count (i.e. an in range argument number which
+ -- reflects removals). If Number is out of range Constraint_Error
+ -- will be raised.
+ --
+ -- Note: the numbering of arguments greater than Number is affected
+ -- by the call. If you need a loop through the arguments, removing
+ -- some as you go, run the loop in reverse to avoid confusion from
+ -- this renumbering:
+ --
+ -- for J in reverse 1 .. Argument_Count loop
+ -- if Should_Remove (Arguments (J)) then
+ -- Remove_Argument (J);
+ -- end if;
+ -- end loop;
+ --
+ -- Reversing the loop in this manner avoids the confusion.
+
+ procedure Remove_Arguments (From : Positive; To : Natural);
+ -- Removes arguments in the given From..To range. From must be in the
+ -- range 1 .. Argument_Count and To in the range 0 .. Argument_Count.
+ -- Constraint_Error is raised if either argument is out of range. If
+ -- To is less than From, then the call has no effect.
+
+ procedure Remove_Argument (Argument : String);
+ -- Removes the argument which matches the given string Argument. Has
+ -- no effect if no argument matches the string. If more than one
+ -- argument matches the string, all are removed.
+
+ procedure Remove_Arguments (Argument_Prefix : String);
+ -- Removes all arguments whose prefix matches Argument_Prefix. Has
+ -- no effect if no argument matches the string. For example a call
+ -- to Remove_Arguments ("--") removes all arguments starting with --.
