package Erroutc is

   Class_Flag : Boolean := False;
   --  This flag is set True when outputting a reference to a class-wide
   --  type, and is used by Add_Class to insert 'Class at the proper point

   Continuation : Boolean := False;
   --  Indicates if current message is a continuation. Intialized from the
   --  Msg_Cont parameter in Error_Msg_Internal and then set True if a \
   --  insertion character is encountered.

   Flag_Source : Source_File_Index;
   --  Source file index for source file where error is being posted

   Is_Warning_Msg : Boolean := False;
   --  Set True to indicate if current message is warning message

   Is_Style_Msg : Boolean := False;
   --  Set True to indicate if the current message is a style message

   Is_Serious_Error : Boolean := False;
   --  Set by Set_Msg_Text to indicate if current message is serious error

   Is_Unconditional_Msg : Boolean := False;
   --  Set by Set_Msg_Text to indicate if current message is unconditional

   Kill_Message : Boolean := False;
   --  A flag used to kill weird messages (e.g. those containing uninterpreted
   --  implicit type references) if we have already seen at least one message
   --  already. The idea is that we hope the weird message is a junk cascaded
   --  message that should be suppressed.

   Last_Killed : Boolean := False;
   --  Set True if the most recently posted non-continuation message was
   --  killed. This is used to determine the processing of any continuation
   --  messages that follow.

   List_Pragmas_Index : Int := 0;
   --  Index into List_Pragmas table

   List_Pragmas_Mode : Boolean := False;
   --  Starts True, gets set False by pragma List (Off), True by List (On)

   Manual_Quote_Mode : Boolean := False;
   --  Set True in manual quotation mode

   Max_Msg_Length : constant := 1024 + 2 * Int (Column_Number'Last);
   --  Maximum length of error message. The addition of 2 * Column_Number'Last
   --  ensures that two insertion tokens of maximum length can be accomodated.
   --  The value of 1024 is an arbitrary value that should be more than long
   --  enough to accomodate any reasonable message (and for that matter, some
   --  pretty unreasonable messages!)

   Msg_Buffer : String (1 .. Max_Msg_Length);
   --  Buffer used to prepare error messages

   Msglen : Integer := 0;
   --  Number of characters currently stored in the message buffer

   Suppress_Message : Boolean;
   --  A flag used to suppress certain obviously redundant messages (i.e.
   --  those referring to a node whose type is Any_Type). This suppression
   --  is effective only if All_Errors_Mode is off.

   Suppress_Instance_Location : Boolean := False;
   --  Normally, if a # location in a message references a location within
   --  a generic template, then a note is added giving the location of the
   --  instantiation. If this variable is set True, then this note is not
   --  output. This is used for internal processing for the case of an
   --  illegal instantiation. See Error_Msg routine for further details.

   ----------------------------
   -- Message ID Definitions --
   ----------------------------

   type Error_Msg_Id is new Int;
   --  A type used to represent specific error messages. Used by the clients
   --  of this package only in the context of the Get_Error_Id and
   --  Change_Error_Text subprograms.

   No_Error_Msg : constant Error_Msg_Id := 0;
   --  A constant which is different from any value returned by Get_Error_Id.
   --  Typically used by a client to indicate absense of a saved Id value.

   Cur_Msg : Error_Msg_Id := No_Error_Msg;
   --  Id of most recently posted error message

   function Get_Msg_Id return Error_Msg_Id;
   --  Returns the Id of the message most recently posted using one of the
   --  Error_Msg routines.

   function Get_Location (E : Error_Msg_Id) return Source_Ptr;
   --  Returns the flag location of the error message with the given id E

   -----------------------------------
   -- Error Message Data Structures --
   -----------------------------------

   --  The error messages are stored as a linked list of error message objects
   --  sorted into ascending order by the source location (Sloc). Each object
   --  records the text of the message and its source location.

   --  The following record type and table are used to represent error
   --  messages, with one entry in the table being allocated for each message.

   type Error_Msg_Object is record
      Text : String_Ptr;
      --  Text of error message, fully expanded with all insertions

      Next : Error_Msg_Id;
      --  Pointer to next message in error chain

      Sfile : Source_File_Index;
      --  Source table index of source file. In the case of an error that
      --  refers to a template, always references the original template
      --  not an instantiation copy.

      Sptr : Source_Ptr;
      --  Flag pointer. In the case of an error that refers to a template,
      --  always references the original template, not an instantiation copy.
      --  This value is the actual place in the source that the error message
      --  will be posted. Note that an error placed on an instantiation will
      --  have Sptr pointing to the instantiation point.

      Optr : Source_Ptr;
      --  Flag location used in the call to post the error. This is normally
      --  the same as Sptr, except when an error is posted on a particular
      --  instantiation of a generic. In such a case, Sptr will point to
      --  the original source location of the instantiation itself, but
      --  Optr will point to the template location (more accurately to the
      --  template copy in the instantiation copy corresponding to the
      --  instantiation referenced by Sptr).

      Line : Physical_Line_Number;
      --  Line number for error message

      Col : Column_Number;
      --  Column number for error message

      Warn : Boolean;
      --  True if warning message (i.e. insertion character ? appeared)

      Style : Boolean;
      --  True if style message (starts with "(style)")

      Serious : Boolean;
      --  True if serious error message (not a warning and no | character)

      Uncond : Boolean;
      --  True if unconditional message (i.e. insertion character ! appeared)

      Msg_Cont : Boolean;
      --  This is used for logical messages that are composed of multiple
      --  individual messages. For messages that are not part of such a
      --  group, or that are the first message in such a group. Msg_Cont
      --  is set to False. For subsequent messages in a group, Msg_Cont
      --  is set to True. This is used to make sure that such a group of
      --  messages is either suppressed or retained as a group (e.g. in
      --  the circuit that deletes identical messages).

      Deleted : Boolean;
      --  If this flag is set, the message is not printed. This is used
      --  in the circuit for deleting duplicate/redundant error messages.
   end record;

   package Errors is new Table.Table (
     Table_Component_Type => Error_Msg_Object,
     Table_Index_Type     => Error_Msg_Id,
     Table_Low_Bound      => 1,
     Table_Initial        => 200,
     Table_Increment      => 200,
     Table_Name           => "Error");

   First_Error_Msg : Error_Msg_Id;
   --  The list of error messages, i.e. the first entry on the list of error
   --  messages. This is not the same as the physically first entry in the
   --  error message table, since messages are not always inserted in sequence.

   Last_Error_Msg : Error_Msg_Id;
   --  The last entry on the list of error messages. Note that this is not
   --  the same as the physically last entry in the error message table, since
   --  messages are not always inserted in sequence.

   --------------------------
   -- Warning Mode Control --
   --------------------------

   --  Pragma Warnings allows warnings to be turned off for a specified
   --  region of code, and the following tabl is the data structure used
   --  to keep track of these regions.

   --  It contains pairs of source locations, the first being the start
   --  location for a warnings off region, and the second being the end
   --  location. When a pragma Warnings (Off) is encountered, a new entry
   --  is established extending from the location of the pragma to the
   --  end of the current source file. A subsequent pragma Warnings (On)
   --  adjusts the end point of this entry appropriately.

   --  If all warnings are suppressed by comamnd switch, then there is a
   --  dummy entry (put there by Errout.Initialize) at the start of the
   --  table which covers all possible Source_Ptr values. Note that the
   --  source pointer values in this table always reference the original
   --  template, not an instantiation copy, in the generic case.

   type Warnings_Entry is record
      Start : Source_Ptr;
      Stop  : Source_Ptr;
   end record;

   package Warnings is new Table.Table (
     Table_Component_Type => Warnings_Entry,
     Table_Index_Type     => Natural,

     Table_Initial        => 100,

   procedure Check_Duplicate_Message (M1, M2 : Error_Msg_Id);
   --  This function is passed the Id values of two error messages. If
   --  either M1 or M2 is a continuation message, or is already deleted,

   procedure Output_Line_Number (L : Logical_Line_Number);
   --  Output a line number as six digits (with leading zeroes suppressed),
   --  followed by a period and a blank (note that this is 8 characters which
