-- This package provides arithmetic and logical operations on type Address.
-- It is intended for use by other packages in the System hierarchy. For
-- applications requiring this capability, see System.Storage_Elements or
-- the operations introduced in System.Aux_DEC;
-- The reason we need this package is that arithmetic operations may not
-- be available in the case where type Address is non-private and the
-- operations have been made abstract in the spec of System (to avoid
-- inappropriate use by applications programs). In addition, the logical
-- operations may not be available if type Address is a signed integer.
package System.Address_Operations is
pragma Pure;
-- The semantics of the arithmetic operations are those that apply to
-- a modular type with the same length as Address, i.e. they provide
-- twos complement wrap around arithmetic treating the address value
-- as an unsigned value, with no overflow checking.
-- Note that we do not use the infix names for these operations to
-- avoid problems with ambiguities coming from declarations in package
-- Standard (which may or may not be visible depending on the exact
-- form of the declaration of type System.Address).
function AddA (Left, Right : Address) return Address;
function SubA (Left, Right : Address) return Address;
function MulA (Left, Right : Address) return Address;
function DivA (Left, Right : Address) return Address;
function ModA (Left, Right : Address) return Address;
-- The semantics of the logical operations are those that apply to
-- a modular type with the same length as Address, i.e. they provide
-- bit-wise operations on all bits of the value (including the sign
-- bit if Address is a signed integer type).
