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

40   pragma Preelaborate;
41   --  Note that this unit is Preelaborate, but not Pure, that's because the
42   --  functions here such as Line are clearly not pure functions, and normally
43   --  we mark intrinsic functions in a Pure unit as Pure, even though they are
44   --  imported.
45   --
46   --  Historical note: this used to be Pure, but that was when we marked all
47   --  intrinsics as not Pure, even in Pure units, so no problems arose.

50     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
51   --  Return the name of the current file, not including the path information.
52   --  The result is considered to be a static string constant.
53
54   function Line return Positive with
55     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
56   --  Return the current input line number. The result is considered to be a
57   --  static expression.
58
59   function Source_Location return String with
60     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
61   --  Return a string literal of the form "name:line", where name is the
62   --  current source file name without path information, and line is the
63   --  current line number. In the event that instantiations are involved,
64   --  additional suffixes of the same form are appended after the separating
65   --  string " instantiated at ". The result is considered to be a static
66   --  string constant.

68   function Enclosing_Entity return String with
69     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;
70   --  Return the name of the current subprogram, package, task, entry or
71   --  protected subprogram. The string is in exactly the form used for the
72   --  declaration of the entity (casing and encoding conventions), and is
73   --  considered to be a static string constant. The name is fully qualified
74   --  using periods where possible (this is not always possible, notably in
75   --  the case of entities appearing in unnamed block statements.)
76   --
77   --  Note: if this function is used at the outer level of a generic package,
78   --  the string returned will be the name of the instance, not the generic
79   --  package itself. This is useful in identifying and logging information
80   --  from within generic templates.

82   function Compilation_Date return String with
83     Import, Convention => Intrinsic;

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