-- Operating system interface facilities
-- This package contains types and procedures for interfacing to the
-- underlying OS. It is used by the GNAT compiler and by tools associated
-- with the GNAT compiler, and therefore works for the various operating
-- systems to which GNAT has been ported. This package will undoubtedly grow
-- as new services are needed by various tools.
-- This package tends to use fairly low-level Ada in order to not bring in
-- large portions of the RTL. For example, functions return access to string
-- as part of avoiding functions returning unconstrained types.
-- Except where specifically noted, these routines are portable across all
-- GNAT implementations on all supported operating systems.
-- Note: this package is in the System hierarchy so that it can be directly
-- be used by other predefined packages. User access to this package is via
-- a renaming of this package in GNAT.OS_Lib (file g-os_lib.ads).

-- similar subprograms in package Calendar) are provided for extracting
-- information from a value of this type. Although these are called GM, the

-- File Stuff --
----------------
-- These routines give access to the open/creat/close/read/write level of

-- the ANSI C standard, but are typically available in all systems). See
-- also package Interfaces.C_Streams for access to the stream level
-- routines.
-- Note on file names. If a file name is passed as type String in any of
-- the following specifications, then the name is a normal Ada string and
-- need not be NUL-terminated. However, a trailing NUL character is
-- permitted, and will be ignored (more accurately, the NUL and any
-- characters that follow it will be ignored).

Standin : constant File_Descriptor := 0;

-- File descriptor returned when error in opening/creating file
procedure Close (FD : File_Descriptor; Status : out Boolean);
-- Close file referenced by FD. Status is False if the underlying service
-- failed. Reasons for failure include: disk full, disk quotas exceeded
-- and invalid file descriptor (the file may have been closed twice).
procedure Close (FD : File_Descriptor);
-- Close file referenced by FD. This form is used when the caller wants to
-- ignore any possible error (see above for error cases).

-- access.
function Is_Regular_File (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Determines if the given string, Name, is the name of an existing

function Is_Writable_File (Name : String) return Boolean;
-- Determines if the given string, Name, is the name of an existing file

function Locate_Exec_On_Path (Exec_Name : String) return String_Access;
-- Try to locate an executable whose name is given by Exec_Name in the

-- the File_Name given is a simple file name, the Path argument is parsed
-- according to OS conventions, and for each directory in the Path a check
-- is made if File_Name is a relative pathname of a regular file from that

function Normalize_Pathname

-- interpreted relative to Directory, or to the current directory if
-- Directory is the empty string (the default). The result returned is
-- the normalized name of the file, containing no "." or ".." components,
-- and no duplicated directory separators. For most cases, if two file
-- names designate the same file through different paths,
-- Normalize_Pathname will return the same canonical name in both cases.
-- However, there are cases when this is not true; for example, this is
-- not true in Unix for two hard links designating the same file.
--
-- On Windows, the returned path will start with a drive letter. If
-- Directory is empty (the default) and Name is a relative path or an
-- absolute path without drive letter, the letter of the current drive
-- will start the returned path. If Case_Sensitive is True (the default),
-- then this drive letter will be forced to upper case ("C:\...").
--
-- If Resolve_Links is set to True, then the symbolic links, on systems
-- that support them, will be fully converted to the name of the file or
-- directory pointed to. This is slightly less efficient, since it
-- requires system calls.
--
-- If Name cannot be resolved, is invalid (for example if it is too big) or
-- is null on entry (for example if there is symbolic link circularity,
-- e.g. A is a symbolic link for B, and B is a symbolic link for A), then
-- Normalize_Pathname returns an empty string.
--
-- For case-sensitive file systems, the value of Case_Sensitive parameter
-- is ignored. For file systems that are not case-sensitive, such as
-- Windows, if this parameter is set to False, then the file and directory
-- names are folded to lower case. This allows checking whether two files
-- are the same by applying this function to their names and comparing the
-- results. If Case_Sensitive is set to True, this function does not change
-- the casing of file and directory names.

-- if the named program could not be spawned or its execution completed
-- unsuccessfully. Note that the caller will be blocked until the
-- execution of the spawned program is complete. For maximum portability,
-- use a full path name for the Program_Name argument. On some systems
-- (notably Unix systems) a simple file name may also work (if the
-- executable can be located in the path).
--
-- Spawning processes from tasking programs is not recommended. See
-- "NOTE: Spawn in tasking programs" below.
--
-- Note: Arguments in Args that contain spaces and/or quotes such as
-- "--GCC=gcc -v" or "--GCC=""gcc -v""" are not portable across all
-- operating systems, and would not have the desired effect if they were
-- passed directly to the operating system. To avoid this problem, Spawn
-- makes an internal call to Normalize_Arguments, which ensures that such
-- arguments are modified in a manner that ensures that the desired effect
-- is obtained on all operating systems. The caller may call
-- Normalize_Arguments explicitly before the call (e.g. to print out the
-- exact form of arguments passed to the operating system). In this case
-- the guarantee a second call to Normalize_Arguments has no effect
-- ensures that the internal call will not affect the result. Note that
-- the implicit call to Normalize_Arguments may free and reallocate some
-- of the individual arguments.
--
-- This function will always set Success to False under VxWorks and other
-- similar operating systems which have no notion of the concept of
-- dynamically executable file. Otherwise Success is set True if the exit
-- status of the spawned process is zero.

procedure Wait_Process (Pid : out Process_Id; Success : out Boolean);

-- these processes terminates (normally or abnormally). If any of these
-- subprocesses terminates prior to the call to Wait_Process (and has not
-- been returned by a previous call to Wait_Process), then the call to
-- Wait_Process is immediate. Pid identifies the process that has
-- terminated (matching the value returned from Non_Blocking_Spawn).
-- Success is set to True if this sub-process terminated successfully. If
-- Pid = Invalid_Pid, there were no subprocesses left to wait on.
--
-- This function will always set success to False under VxWorks, since

-------------------------------------
-- NOTE: Spawn in Tasking Programs --
-------------------------------------
-- Spawning processes in tasking programs using the above Spawn and
-- Non_Blocking_Spawn subprograms is not recommended, because there are
-- subtle interactions between creating a process and signals/locks that
-- can cause trouble. These issues are not specific to Ada; they depend
-- primarily on the operating system.
-- If you need to spawn processes in a tasking program, you will need to
-- understand the semantics of your operating system, and you are likely to
-- write non-portable code, because operating systems differ in this area.
-- The Spawn and Non_Blocking_Spawn subprograms call the following
-- operating system functions:
-- On Windows: spawnvp (blocking) or CreateProcess (non-blocking)
-- On Solaris: fork1, followed in the child process by execv
-- On other Unix-like systems: fork, followed in the child
-- process by execv.
-- On vxworks, spawning of processes is not supported
-- For details, look at the functions __gnat_portable_spawn and
-- __gnat_portable_no_block_spawn in adaint.c.
-- You should read the operating-system-specific documentation for the
-- above functions, paying special attention to subtle interactions with
-- threading, signals, locks, and file descriptors. Most of the issues are
-- related to the fact that on Unix, there is a window of time between fork
-- and execv; Windows does not have this problem, because spawning is done
-- in a single operation.
-- On Posix-compliant systems, such as Linux, fork duplicates just the
-- calling thread. (On Solaris, fork1 is the Posix-compliant version of
-- fork.)
-- You should avoid using signals while spawning. This includes signals
-- used internally by the Ada run-time system, such as timer signals used
-- to implement delay statements.
-- It is best to spawn any subprocesses very early, before the parent
-- process creates tasks, locks, or installs signal handlers. Certainly
-- avoid doing simultaneous spawns from multiple threads of the same
-- process.
-- There is no problem spawning a subprocess that uses tasking: the
-- problems are caused only by tasking in the parent.
-- If the parent is using tasking, and needs to spawn subprocesses at
-- arbitrary times, one technique is for the parent to spawn (very early)
-- a particular spawn-manager subprocess whose job is to spawn other
-- processes. The spawn-manager must avoid tasking. The parent sends
-- messages to the spawn-manager requesting it to spawn processes, using
-- whatever inter-process communication mechanism you like, such as
-- sockets.
-- In short, mixing spawning of subprocesses with tasking is a tricky
-- business, and should be avoided if possible, but if it is necessary,
-- the above guidelines should be followed, and you should beware of
-- portability problems.
