pragma Assertion_Policy (Pre => Ignore);

--  This package provides an implementation of Ada.Strings.Unbounded that uses
--  reference counts to implement copy on modification (rather than copy on
--  assignment). This is significantly more efficient on many targets.

--  This version is supported on:
--    - all Alpha platforms
--    - all ia64 platforms
--    - all PowerPC platforms
--    - all SPARC V9 platforms
--    - all x86 platforms
--    - all x86_64 platforms

   --  This package uses several techniques to increase speed:

   --   - Implicit sharing or copy-on-write. An Unbounded_String contains only
   --     the reference to the data which is shared between several instances.
   --     The shared data is reallocated only when its value is changed and
   --     the object mutation can't be used or it is inefficient to use it.

   --   - Object mutation. Shared data object can be reused without memory
   --     reallocation when all of the following requirements are met:
   --      - the shared data object is no longer used by anyone else;
   --      - the size is sufficient to store the new value;
   --      - the gap after reuse is less than a defined threshold.

   --   - Memory preallocation. Most of used memory allocation algorithms
   --     align allocated segments on the some boundary, thus some amount of
   --     additional memory can be preallocated without any impact. Such
   --     preallocated memory can used later by Append/Insert operations
   --     without reallocation.

   --  Reference counting uses GCC builtin atomic operations, which allows safe
   --  sharing of internal data between Ada tasks. Nevertheless, this does not
   --  make objects of Unbounded_String thread-safe: an instance cannot be
   --  accessed by several tasks simultaneously.
