GNAT subunit naming

GNAT subunit naming

[xorquewasp]

Hi.

We have these files:

-- hello.ads
package hello_device is
  procedure func1;
  procedure func2;
  procedure func3;
end;

-- hello.adb
package body hello_device is
  procedure func1 is separate;
  procedure func2 is separate;
  procedure func3 is separate;
end;

-- hello_f1.adb
with ada.text_io;

separate(hello_device)

procedure func1 is
begin
  ada.text_io.put("func1");
  ada.text_io.new_line;
end func1;

-- hello_f2.adb
with ada.text_io;

separate(hello_device)

procedure func2 is
begin
  ada.text_io.put("func2");
  ada.text_io.new_line;
end func2;

-- hello_f3.adb
with ada.text_io;

separate(hello_device)

procedure func3 is
begin
  ada.text_io.put("func3");
  ada.text_io.new_line;
end func3;

Now, I can tell GNAT that the files hello.ads and hello.adb
provide the package 'hello_device' just fine with a
couple of Source_File_Name pragmas but I can't seem to
work out how to tell GNAT that hello_f[123].adb provide
the subunits of this package.

Any help would be appreciated.

hello_device-func1.adb
hello_device-func2.adb
hello_device-func3.adb ?

Hi.

Those are the files that GNAT looks for by default, yes,
however I would like to know how to tell it to use the
filenames I specify (hello_f1.adb, hello_f2.adb, etc...).

thanks.

Hello.

I assume you mean section 2.4 "Using other file names".
I also assume that I need to use the Subunit_File_Name
parameter to the Source_File_Name pragma. Unfortunately
it seem no matter how I specify the pragma with a
Subunit_File_Name parameter, the compiler rejects it.

What I would like to be able to do is to specify each subunit
filename explicitly:

pragma source_file_name (hello_device,
  subunit_file_name => "hello_f1.adb");
pragma source_file_name (hello_device,
  subunit_file_name => "hello_f2.adb");
pragma source_file_name (hello_device,
  subunit_file_name => "hello_f3.adb");

If I actually try to do this, however, the compiler simply
gives me an "incorrect argument" error.

What is the correct way to specify filenames for subunits?

thanks.

Your subunits are named Hello_Device.Func1 and the like. Those are the names to 
give to pragma Source_File_Name.

Hi.

Thanks! I have it now. GNAT accepts the following:

pragma source_file_name
  (hello_device, spec_file_name => "hello.ads");
pragma source_file_name
  (hello_device, body_file_name => "hello.adb");

pragma source_file_name
  (hello_device.func1, body_file_name => "hello_f1.adb");
pragma source_file_name
  (hello_device.func2, body_file_name => "hello_f2.adb");
pragma source_file_name
  (hello_device.func3, body_file_name => "hello_f3.adb");

Thanks very much.

An advice on the road, breaking the gcc/gnat naming conventions may look 
like a good idea in the beginning but I could guarantee that I will give 
you plenty of headache down the road.
So even if the component I was building contained 100+ files and they 
was stored i a VC system where renaming was a real pain in ass (it takes 
16 hours just for the renaming) I would take that pain front up without 
hesitating instead of having a lot of pain down the road (been there 
done that).
