These are older -- versions of this routine. In some cases GNAT.Bubble_Sort_G may be a -- little faster than GNAT.Bubble_Sort, at the expense of generic code -- duplication and a less convenient interface. The generic version also -- has the advantage of being Pure, while this unit can only be Preelaborate. package GNAT.Bubble_Sort is pragma Pure; -- The data to be sorted is assumed to be indexed by integer values from -- 1 to N, where N is the number of items to be sorted. type Xchg_Procedure is access procedure (Op1, Op2 : Natural); -- A pointer to a procedure that exchanges the two data items whose -- index values are Op1 and Op2. type Lt_Function is access function (Op1, Op2 : Natural) return Boolean; -- A pointer to a function that compares two items and returns True if -- the item with index value Op1 is less than the item with Index value -- Op2, and False if the Op1 item is greater than or equal to the Op2 -- item. procedure Sort (N : Natural; Xchg : Xchg_Procedure; Lt : Lt_Function); -- This procedures sorts items in the range from 1 to N into ascending -- order making calls to Lt to do required comparisons, and calls to -- Xchg to exchange items. The sort is stable, that is the order of -- equal items in the input is preserved. end GNAT.Bubble_Sort;
