-package Sem_Res is
-
- -- As described in Sem_Ch4, the type resolution proceeds in two phases.
- -- The first phase is a bottom up pass that is achieved during the
- -- recursive traversal performed by the Analyze procedures. This phase
- -- determines unambiguous types, and collects sets of possible types
- -- where the interpretation is potentially ambiguous.
-
- -- On completing this bottom up pass, which corresponds to a call to
- -- Analyze on a complete context, the Resolve routine is called which
- -- performs a top down resolution with recursive calls to itself to
- -- resolve operands.
-
- -- Since in practice a lot of semantic analysis has to be postponed until
- -- types are known (e.g. static folding, setting of suppress flags), the
- -- Resolve routines also complete the semantic analyze, and also call the
- -- expander for possibly expansion of the completely type resolved node.
-
- procedure Resolve (N : Node_Id; Typ : Entity_Id);
- procedure Resolve (N : Node_Id; Typ : Entity_Id; Suppress : Check_Id);
- -- Top level type-checking procedure, called in a complete context. The
- -- construct N, which is a subexpression, has already been analyzed, and
- -- is required to be of type Typ given the analysis of the context (which
- -- uses the information gathered on the bottom up phase in Analyze). The
- -- resolve routines do various other processing, e.g. static evaluation.
- -- If a Suppress argument is present, then the resolution is done with the
- -- specified check suppressed (can be All_Checks to suppress all checks).
-
- procedure Resolve_Discrete_Subtype_Indication
- (N : Node_Id;
- Typ : Entity_Id);
- -- Resolve subtype indications in choices (case statements and
- -- aggregates) and in index constraints. Note that the resulting Etype
- -- of the subtype indication node is set to the Etype of the contained
- -- range (i.e. an Itype is not constructed for the actual subtype).
-
- procedure Resolve_Entry (Entry_Name : Node_Id);
- -- Find name of entry being called, and resolve prefix of name with its
- -- own type. For now we assume that the prefix cannot be overloaded and
- -- the name of the entry plays no role in the resolution.
-
- procedure Analyze_And_Resolve (N : Node_Id);
- procedure Analyze_And_Resolve (N : Node_Id; Typ : Entity_Id);
- procedure Analyze_And_Resolve
- (N : Node_Id;
- Typ : Entity_Id;
- Suppress : Check_Id);
- procedure Analyze_And_Resolve
- (N : Node_Id;
- Suppress : Check_Id);
- -- These routines combine the effect of Analyze and Resolve. If a Suppress
- -- argument is present, then the analysis is done with the specified check
- -- suppressed (can be All_Checks to suppress all checks). These checks are
- -- suppressed for both the analysis and resolution. If the type argument
- -- is not present, then the Etype of the expression after the Analyze
- -- call is used for the Resolve.
-
- procedure Check_Parameterless_Call (N : Node_Id);
- -- Several forms of names can denote calls to entities without para-
- -- meters. The context determines whether the name denotes the entity
- -- or a call to it. When it is a call, the node must be rebuilt
- -- accordingly (deprocedured, in A68 terms) and renalyzed to obtain
- -- possible interpretations.
- --
- -- The name may be that of an overloadable construct, or it can be an
- -- explicit dereference of a prefix that denotes an access to subprogram.
- -- In that case, we want to convert the name into a call only if the
- -- context requires the return type of the subprogram. Finally, a
- -- parameterless protected subprogram appears as a selected component.
- --
- -- The parameter T is the Typ for the corresponding resolve call.
-
- procedure Pre_Analyze_And_Resolve (N : Node_Id; T : Entity_Id);
- -- Performs a pre-analysis of expression node N. During pre-analysis
- -- N is analyzed and then resolved against type T, but no expansion
- -- is carried out for N or its children. For more info on pre-analysis
- -- read the spec of Sem.
-
- procedure Pre_Analyze_And_Resolve (N : Node_Id);
- -- Same, but use type of node because context does not impose a single
- -- type.
