GNAT IMPLEMENTED FEATURES LIST
|
|
Current as of 01/26/95
|
|
|
|
Here is the list of implemented and not implemented features. A more precise
|
|
description of the GNAT system is provided in the file 'gnatinfo.txt', which
|
|
is part of the GNAT distribution.
|
|
|
|
Latest features in GNAT version 2.02
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
Extension aggregates are implemented (not much tested so far)
|
|
The Storage_Pool mechanism is in place
|
|
Functions returning unconstrained values shouldn't leak anymore
|
|
Enumeration representation clauses are fully implemented
|
|
Record representation clauses are implemented (currently there is
|
|
a restriction that all fields must be given a position and tagged
|
|
records cannot yet be given representation clauses)
|
|
The constrained attribute is implemented
|
|
Conformance checking is fully implemented
|
|
Shared variables (pragmas Shared, Atomic, Atomic_Components,
|
|
Volatile, and Volatile_Components) are implemented
|
|
User-defined Initialize/Adjust/Finalize is now almost complete for
|
|
controlled types as well as for types containing controlled components.
|
|
(aggregates involving controlled types and functions returning objects
|
|
with controlled components may still cause trouble).
|
|
Alignment attribute and attribute definition clause are implemented
|
|
Pred and Succ for fixed-point types are implemented
|
|
Discard_Names pragma is implemented
|
|
Arrays are passed properly to convention C routines
|
|
Pragma Inspection_Point is implemented
|
|
Pragma Locking_Policy is implemented
|
|
Pragma Task_Dispatching_Policy is implemented
|
|
Pragma Memory_Size is implemented (it is ignored anyway)
|
|
Derived types from private types are impelmented
|
|
Floating-point attribute functions are implemented:
|
|
Adjacent, Ceiling, Compose, Copy_Sign, Exponent, Floor, Fraction,
|
|
Leading_Part, Machine, Model, Pred, Remainder, Rounding, Scaling, Succ,
|
|
Truncation, Unbiased_Rounding
|
|
Pragma Optimize is implemented (checks that GCC optimization level is
|
|
consistent)
|
|
Pragma Reviewable is implemented (checks that GCC debug option "-g" is set)
|
|
Pragma Controlled is implemented (but ignored so far)
|
|
The attributes Version and Body_Version are implemented
|
|
Pragma Linker_Options is implemented
|
|
Attribute Max_Size_In_Storage_Elements is implemented
|
|
The attribute Valid is implemented
|
|
Requeue without abort is implemented
|
|
Delay statement on OS/2 is now working correctly.
|
|
The attribute Bit_Order is implemented
|
|
Range checking for modular types
|
|
Length checks are now implemented
|
|
Pragma Import Fortran and COBOL are implemented
|
|
Pragma Convention is now fully implemented (for C, Fortran, COBOL),
|
|
Pragma Convention for Fortran correctly maps multi-dimensional arrays
|
|
|

|
implementation uses floating-point to represent Delay).
