In particular, it is -- required that the global variable "gnat_argc" contain the number of -- arguments, and that the global variable "gnat_argv" points to an -- array of null-terminated strings, the first entry being the command -- name, and the remaining entries being the command arguments. -- These correspond to the normal argc/argv variables passed to a C -- main program, and the following is an example of a complete C main -- program that stores the required information: -- main(int argc, char **argv, char **envp) -- { -- extern int gnat_argc; -- extern char **gnat_argv; -- extern char **gnat_envp; -- gnat_argc = argc; -- gnat_argv = argv; -- gnat_envp = envp; -- adainit(); -- adamain(); -- adafinal(); -- } -- The assignment statements ensure that the necessary information is -- available for finding the command name and command line arguments. private Success : constant Exit_Status := 0; Failure : constant Exit_Status := 1; -- The following locations support the operation of the package -- Ada.Command_Line.Remove, whih provides facilities for logically -- removing arguments from the command line.
