pragma Pure;
function Scan_Raw_Unsigned
(Str : String;
Ptr : access Integer;
Max : Integer) return System.Unsigned_Types.Unsigned;
-- 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). Note: this does not scan
-- leading or trailing blanks, nor leading sign.
--
-- There are three cases for the return:
--
-- If a valid integer is found, then Ptr.all is updated past the last
-- character of the integer.
--
-- 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.
--
-- 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.
--
-- Note: these rules correspond to the requirements for leaving the pointer
-- positioned in Text_IO.Get
--
-- Note: if Str is empty, 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
-- is greater than Max as required in this case.
function Scan_Unsigned
(Str : String;
Ptr : access Integer;
Max : Integer) return System.Unsigned_Types.Unsigned;
-- Same as Scan_Raw_Unsigned, except scans optional leading
-- blanks, and an optional leading plus sign.
-- Note: if a minus sign is present, Constraint_Error will be raised.
-- Note: trailing blanks are not scanned.
function Value_Unsigned
(Str : String) return System.Unsigned_Types.Unsigned;
-- Used in computing X'Value (Str) where X is a modular integer type whose
-- modulus does not exceed the range of System.Unsigned_Types.Unsigned. Str
-- is the string argument of the attribute. Constraint_Error is raised if
-- the string is malformed, or if the value is out of range.
