package String_Pkg is

    --| Overview:
    --| Package string_pkg exports an abstract data type, string_type.  A
    --| string_type value is a sequence of characters.  The values have arbitrary
    --| length.  For a value, s, with length, l, the individual characters are
    --| numbered from 1 to l.  These values are immutable; characters cannot be
    --| replaced or appended in a destructive fashion.
    --|
    --| In the documentation for this package, we are careful to distinguish
    --| between string_type objects, which are Ada objects in the usual sense,
    --| and string_type values, the members of this data abstraction as described
    --| above.  A string_type value is said to be associated with, or bound to,
    --| a string_type object after an assignment (:=) operation.
    --|
    --| The operations provided in this package fall into three categories:
    --|
    --| 1. Constructors:  These functions typically take one or more string_type
    --|      objects as arguments.  They work with the values associated with
    --|      these objects, and return new string_type values according to
    --|      specification.  By a slight abuse of language, we will sometimes
    --|      coerce from string_type objects to values for ease in description.
    --|
    --| 2. Heap Management:
    --|      These operations (make_persistent, flush, mark, release) control the
    --|      management of heap space.  Because string_type values are
    --|      allocated on the heap, and the type is not limited, it is necessary
    --|      for a user to assume some responsibility for garbage collection.
    --|      String_type is not limited because of the convenience of
    --|      the assignment operation, and the usefulness of being able to
    --|      instantiate generic units that contain private type formals.
    --|      ** Important: To use this package properly, it is necessary to read
    --|      the descriptions of the operations in this section.
    --|
    --| 3. Queries:  These functions return information about the values
    --|      that are associated with the argument objects.  The same conventions
    --|      for description of operations used in (1) is adopted.
    --|
    --| A note about design decisions...  The decision to not make the type
    --| limited causes two operations to be carried over from the representation.
    --| These are the assignment operation, :=, and the "equality" operator, "=".
    --| See the discussion at the beginning of the Heap Management section for a
    --| discussion of :=.
    --| See the spec for the first of the equal functions for a discussion of "=".
    --|
    --| The following is a complete list of operations, written in the order
    --| in which they appear in the spec.  Overloaded subprograms are followed
    --| by (n), where n is the number of subprograms of that name.
    --|
    --| 1. Constructors:
    --|        create
    --|        "&" (3)
    --|        substr
    --|        splice
    --|        insert (3)
    --| t (2)
    --|        flush
    --|        mark, release
    --| 3. Queries:
    --|        is_empty
    --|        length
    --|        value
    --|        fetch
    --|        equal (3)
    --|        "<" (3),
    --|ot_c
    --|        match_s (2)

    -- Heap Management (including object/value binding):
    --
    -- Two forms of heap management are provided.  The general scheme is to "mark"
    -- the current state of heap usage, and to "release" in order to reclaim all
    -- space that has been used since the last mark.  However, this alone is
    -- insufficient because it is frequently desirable for objects to remain
    -- associated with values for longer periods of time, and this may come into
    -- conflict with the need to clean up after a period of "string hacking."
    -- To deal with this problem, we introduce the notions of "persistent" and
    -- "nonpersistent" values.
    --
    -- The nonpersistent values are those that are generated by the constructors
    -- in the previous section.  These are claimed by the release procedure.
    -- Persistent values are generated by the two make_persistent functions
    -- described below.  These values must be disposed of individually by means of
    -- the flush procedure.
    --
    -- This allows a description of the meaning of the ":=" operation.  For a
    -- statement of the form, s := expr, where expr is a string_type expression,
    -- the result is that the value denoted/created by expr becomes bound to the
    -- the object, s.  Assignment in no way affects the persistence of the value.
    -- If expr happens to be an object, then the value associated  with it will be
    -- shared.  Ideally, this sharing would not be visible, since values are
    -- immutable.  However, the sharing may be visible because of the memory
    -- management, as described below.  Programs which depend on such sharing are
    -- erroneous.

    function Make_Persistent (S : in String_Type) return String_Type;

    --| Effects:
    --| Returns a persistent value, v, containing exactly those characters in
    --| value(s).  The value v will not be claimed by any subsequent release.
    --| Only an invocation of flush will claim v.  After such a claiming
    --| invocation of flush, the use (other than :=) of any other object to
    --| which v was bound is erroneous, and program_error may be raised for
    --| such a use.

    function Make_Persistent (S : in String) return String_Type;

    --| Effects:
    --| Returns a persistent value, v, containing exactly those chars in s.
    --| The value v will not be claimed by any subsequent release.
    --| Only an invocation of flush will reclaim v.  After such a claiming
    --| invocation of flush, the use (other than :=) of any other object to
    --| which v was bound is erroneous, and program_error may be raised for
    --| such a use.

    procedure Flush (S : in out String_Type);

    --| Effects:
    --| Return heap space used by the value associated with s, if any, to
    --| the heap.  s becomes associated with the empty value.  After an
    --| invocation of flush claims the value, v, then any use (other than :=)
    --| of an object to which v was bound is erroneous, and program_error
    --| may be raised for such a use.
    --|
    --| This operation should be used only for persistent values.  The mark
    --| and release operations are used to deallocate space consumed by other
    --| values.  For example, flushing a nonpersistent value implies that a
    --| release that tries to claim this value will be erroneous, and
    --| program_error may be raised for such a use.

    procedure Mark;

    --| Effects:
    --| Marks the current state of heap usage for use by release.
    --| An implicit mark is performed at the beginning of program execution.

    procedure Release;

    --| Raises: illegal_dealloc
    --| Effects:
    --| Releases all heap space used by nonpersistent values that have been
    --| allocated since the last mark.  The values that are claimed include
    --| those bound to objects as well as those produced and discarded during
    --| the course of general "string hacking."  If an invocation of release
    --| claims a value, v, then any subsequent use (other than :=) of any
    --| other object to which v is bound is erroneous, and program_error may
    --| be raised for such a use.
    --|
    --| Raises illegal_dealloc if the invocation of release does not balance
    --| an invocation of mark.  It is permissible to match the implicit
    --| initial invocation of mark.  However, subsequent invocations of
    --| constructors will raise the illegal_alloc exception until an
    --| additional mark is performed.  (Anyway, there is no good reason to
    --| do this.)  In any case, a number of releases matching the number of
    --| currently active marks is implicitly performed at the end of program
    --| execution.
    --|
    --| Good citizens generally perform their own marks and releases
    --| explicitly.  Extensive string hacking without cleaning up will
    --| cause your program to run very slowly, since the heap manager will
    --| be forced to look hard for chunks of space to allocate.

    -- Queries:

    function Is_Empty (S : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Return true iff s is the empty sequence of characters.

    function Length (S : in String_Type) return Natural;

    --| Effects:
    --| Return number of characters in s.

    function Value (S : in String_Type) return String;

    --| Effects:
    --| Return a string, s2, that contains the same characters that s
    --| contains.  The properties, s2'first = 1 and s2'last = length(s),
    --| are satisfied.  This implies that, for a given string, s3,
    --| value(create(s3))'first may not equal s3'first, even though
    --| value(create(s3)) = s3 holds.  Thus, "content equality" applies
    --| although the string objects may be distinguished by the use of
    --| the array attributes.

    function Fetch (S : in String_Type; I : in Positive) return Character;

    --| Raises: bounds
    --| Effects:
    --| Return the ith character in s.  Characters are numbered from
    --| 1 to length(s).  Raises bounds if i not in 1..length(s).

    function Equal (S1, S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Value equality relation; return true iff length(s1) = length(s2)
    --| and, for all i in 1..length(s1), fetch(s1, i) = fetch(s2, i).
    --| The "=" operation is carried over from the representation.
    --| It allows one to distinguish among the heap addresses of
    --| string_type values.  Even "equal" values may not be "=", although
    --| s1 = s2 implies equal(s1, s2).
    --| There is no reason to use "=".

    function Equal (S1 : in String_Type; S2 : in String) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Return equal(s1, create(s2)).

    function Equal (S1 : in String; S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Return equal(create(s1), s2).

    function "<" (S1 : in String_Type; S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Lexicographic comparison; return value(s1) < value(s2).

    function "<" (S1 : in String_Type; S2 : in String) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Lexicographic comparison; return value(s1) < s2.

    function "<" (S1 : in String; S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Lexicographic comparison; return s1 < value(s2).

    function "<=" (S1 : in String_Type; S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:

    function "<=" (S1 : in String_Type; S2 : in String) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:
    --| Lexicographic comparison; return value(s1) <= s2.

    function "<=" (S1 : in String; S2 : in String_Type) return Boolean;

    --| Effects:

                (S : in String_Type; C : in Character; Start : in Positive := 1)
