-- This package contains routines for scanning signed Long_Long_Integer
-- values for use in Text_IO.Integer_IO, and the Value attribute.

function Scan_Long_Long_Integer
(Str : String;
Ptr : access Integer;
45 Max : Integer)
return Long_Long_Integer;
-- This function scans the string starting at Str (Ptr.all) for a valid
-- integer according to the syntax described in (RM 3.5(43)). The substring
-- scanned extends no further than Str (Max). There are three cases for the
50 -- return:
--
-- If a valid integer is found after scanning past any initial spaces, then
-- Ptr.all is updated past the last character of the integer (but trailing
-- spaces are not scanned out).
55 --
-- If no valid integer is found, then Ptr.all points either to an initial
-- non-digit character, or to Max + 1 if the field is all spaces and the
-- exception Constraint_Error is raised.
--
60 -- If a syntactically valid integer is scanned, but the value is out of
-- range, or, in the based case, the base value is out of range or there
-- is an out of range digit, then Ptr.all points past the integer, and
-- Constraint_Error is raised.
--
65 -- Note: these rules correspond to the requirements for leaving the pointer
-- positioned in Text_Io.Get
--
-- Note: if Str is null, i.e. if Max is less than Ptr, then this is a
-- special case of an all-blank string, and Ptr is unchanged, and hence
70 -- is greater than Max as required in this case.
function Value_Long_Long_Integer (Str : String) return Long_Long_Integer;
-- Used in computing X'Value (Str) where X is a signed integer type whose
-- base range exceeds the base range of Integer. Str is the string argument
75 -- of the attribute. Constraint_Error is raised if the string is malformed,
-- or if the value is out of range.
