+ -- Error Message Text and Message Insertion Characters --
+ ---------------------------------------------------------
+
+ -- Error message text strings are composed of lower case letters, digits
+ -- and the special characters space, comma, period, colon and semicolon,
+ -- apostrophe and parentheses. Special insertion characters can also
+ -- appear which cause the error message circuit to modify the given
+ -- string as follows:
+
+ -- Ignored insertion characters: the following characters, used as
+ -- insertion characters by Errout are ignored: '$', '&', and '}'.
+ -- If present in an error message, they are not output and are not
+ -- replaced by any text.
+
+ -- Insertion character % (Percent: insert name from Names table)
+ -- The character % is replaced by the text for the name specified by
+ -- the Name_Id value stored in Error_Msg_Name_1. A blank precedes
+ -- the name if it is preceded by a non-blank character other than a
+ -- left parenthesis. The name is enclosed in quotes unless manual
+ -- quotation mode is set. If the Name_Id is set to No_Name, then
+ -- no insertion occurs; if the Name_Id is set to Error_Name, then
+ -- the string <error> is inserted. A second and third % may appear
+ -- in a single message, similarly replaced by the names which are
+ -- specified by the Name_Id values stored in Error_Msg_Name_2 and
+ -- Error_Msg_Name_3. The names are decoded and cased according to
+ -- the current identifier casing mode.
+
+ -- Insertion character { (Left brace: insert literally from names table)
+ -- The character { is treated similarly to %, except that the
+ -- name is output literally as stored in the names table without
+ -- adjusting the casing. This can be used for file names and in
+ -- other situations where the name string is to be output unchanged.
+
+ -- Insertion character * (Asterisk, insert reserved word name)
+ -- The insertion character * is treated exactly like % except that
+ -- the resulting name is cased according to the default conventions
+ -- for reserved words (see package Scans).
+
+ -- Insertion character # (Pound: insert line number reference)
+ -- The character # is replaced by the string indicating the source
+ -- position stored in Error_Msg_Sloc. There are two cases:
+ --
+ -- for locations in current file: at line nnn:ccc
+ -- for locations in other files: at filename:nnn:ccc
+ --
+ -- By convention, the # insertion character is only used at the end
+ -- of an error message, so the above strings only appear as the last
+ -- characters of an error message.
+
+ -- Insertion character @ (At: insert column number reference)
+ -- The character @ is replaced by null if the RM_Column_Check mode is
+ -- off (False). If the switch is on (True), then @ is replaced by the
+ -- text string " in column nnn" where nnn is the decimal representation
+ -- of the column number stored in Error_Msg_Col plus one (the plus one
+ -- is because the number is stored 0-origin and displayed 1-origin).
+
+ -- Insertion character ^ (Carret: insert integer value)
+ -- The character ^ is replaced by the decimal conversion of the Uint
+ -- value stored in Error_Msg_Uint_1, with a possible leading minus.
+ -- A second ^ may occur in the message, in which case it is replaced
+ -- by the decimal conversion of the Uint value in Error_Msg_Uint_2.
+
+ -- Insertion character ! (Exclamation: unconditional message)
+ -- The character ! appearing as the last character of a message makes
+ -- the message unconditional which means that it is output even if it
+ -- would normally be suppressed.
+
+ -- Insertion character ? (Question: warning message)
+ -- The character ? appearing anywhere in a message makes the message
+ -- a warning instead of a normal error message, and the text of the
+ -- message will be preceded by "Warning:" instead of "Error:" The
+ -- handling of warnings if further controlled by the Warning_Mode
+ -- option (-w switch), see package Opt for further details, and
+ -- also by the current setting from pragma Warnings. This pragma
+ -- applies only to warnings issued from the semantic phase (not
+ -- the parser), but currently all relevant warnings are posted
+ -- by the semantic phase anyway. Messages starting with (style)
+ -- are also treated as warning messages.
+
+ -- Insertion character A-Z (Upper case letter: Ada reserved word)
+ -- If two or more upper case letters appear in the message, they are
+ -- taken as an Ada reserved word, and are converted to the default
+ -- case for reserved words (see Scans package spec). Surrounding
+ -- quotes are added unless manual quotation mode is currently set.
+
+ -- Insertion character ` (Backquote: set manual quotation mode)
+ -- The backquote character always appears in pairs. Each backquote
+ -- of the pair is replaced by a double quote character. In addition,
+ -- Any reserved keywords, or name insertions between these backquotes
+ -- are not surrounded by the usual automatic double quotes. See the
+ -- section below on manual quotation mode for further details.
+
+ -- Insertion character ' (Quote: literal character)
+ -- Precedes a character which is placed literally into the message.
+ -- Used to insert characters into messages that are one of the
+ -- insertion characters defined here.
+
+ -- Insertion character \ (Backslash: continuation message)
+ -- Indicates that the message is a continuation of a message
+ -- previously posted. This is used to ensure that such groups
+ -- of messages are treated as a unit. The \ character must be
+ -- the first character of the message text.
+
+ -----------------------------------------------------
+ -- Format of Messages and Manual Quotation Control --
+ -----------------------------------------------------
+
+ -- Messages are generally all in lower case, except for inserted names
+ -- and appear in one of the following two forms:
+
+ -- error: text
+ -- warning: text
+
+ -- The prefixes error and warning are supplied automatically (depending
+ -- on the use of the ? insertion character), and the call to the error
+ -- message routine supplies the text. The "error: " prefix is omitted
+ -- in brief error message formats.
+
+ -- Reserved keywords in the message are in the default keyword case
+ -- (determined from the given source program), surrounded by quotation
+ -- marks. This is achieved by spelling the reserved word in upper case
+ -- letters, which is recognized as a request for insertion of quotation
+ -- marks by the error text processor. Thus for example:
+
+ -- Error_Msg_AP ("IS expected");
+
+ -- would result in the output of one of the following:
+
+ -- error: "is" expected
+ -- error: "IS" expected
+ -- error: "Is" expected
+
+ -- the choice between these being made by looking at the casing convention
+ -- used for keywords (actually the first compilation unit keyword) in the
+ -- source file.
+
+ -- In the case of names, the default mode for the error text processor
+ -- is to surround the name by quotation marks automatically. The case
+ -- used for the identifier names is taken from the source program where
+ -- possible, and otherwise is the default casing convention taken from
+ -- the source file usage.
+
+ -- In some cases, better control over the placement of quote marks is
+ -- required. This is achieved using manual quotation mode. In this mode,
+ -- one or more insertion sequences is surrounded by backquote characters.
+ -- The backquote characters are output as double quote marks, and normal
+ -- automatic insertion of quotes is suppressed between the double quotes.
+ -- For example:
+
+ -- Error_Msg_AP ("`END &;` expected");
+
+ -- generates a message like
+
+ -- error: "end Open_Scope;" expected
+
+ -- where the node specifying the name Open_Scope has been stored in
+ -- Error_Msg_Node_1 prior to the call. The great majority of error
+ -- messages operates in normal quotation mode.
+
+ -- Note: the normal automatic insertion of spaces before insertion
+ -- sequences (such as those that come from & and %) is suppressed in
+ -- manual quotation mode, so blanks, if needed as in the above example,
+ -- must be explicitly present.

+
+ procedure Initialize;
+ -- Initializes for output of error messages. Must be called for each
+ -- file before using any of the other routines in the package.
+
+ procedure Finalize (Source_Type : String := "project");
+ -- Finalize processing of error messages for one file and output message
+ -- indicating the number of detected errors.
+ -- Source_Type is used in verbose mode to indicate the type of the source
+ -- being parsed (project file, definition file or input file for the
+ -- preprocessor).
+
+ procedure Error_Msg (Msg : String; Flag_Location : Source_Ptr);
+ -- Output a message at specified location.
+
+ procedure Error_Msg_S (Msg : String);
+ -- Output a message at current scan pointer location.
+
+ procedure Error_Msg_SC (Msg : String);
+ -- Output a message at the start of the current token, unless we are at
+ -- the end of file, in which case we always output the message after the
+ -- last real token in the file.
+
+ procedure Error_Msg_SP (Msg : String);
+ -- Output a message at the start of the previous token.
+
+ procedure Set_Ignore_Errors (To : Boolean);
+ -- Indicate, when To = True, that all reported errors should
+ -- be ignored. By default reported errors are not ignored.
