TYPE
   String ;


(*
   InitString - creates and returns a String type object.
                Initial contents are, a.
*)

PROCEDURE InitString (a: ARRAY OF CHAR) : String ;


(*
   KillString - frees String, s, and its contents.
                NIL is returned.
*)

PROCEDURE KillString (s: String) : String ;


(*
   Fin - finishes with a string, it calls KillString with, s.
         The purpose of the procedure is to provide a short cut
         to calling KillString and then testing the return result.
*)

PROCEDURE Fin (s: String) ;


(*
   InitStringCharStar - initializes and returns a String to contain
                        the C string.
*)

PROCEDURE InitStringCharStar (a: ADDRESS) : String ;


(*
   InitStringChar - initializes and returns a String to contain the
                    single character, ch.
*)

PROCEDURE InitStringChar (ch: CHAR) : String ;


(*
   Mark - marks String, s, ready for garbage collection.
*)

PROCEDURE Mark (s: String) : String ;


(*
   Length - returns the length of the String, s.
*)

PROCEDURE Length (s: String) : CARDINAL ;


(*
   ConCat - returns String, a, after the contents of, b,
            have been appended.
*)

PROCEDURE ConCat (a, b: String) : String ;


(*
   ConCatChar - returns String, a, after character, ch,
                has been appended.
*)

PROCEDURE ConCatChar (a: String; ch: CHAR) : String ;


(*
   Assign - assigns the contents of, b, into, a.
            String, a, is returned.
*)

PROCEDURE Assign (a, b: String) : String ;


(*
   ReplaceChar - returns string s after it has changed all
                 occurances of from to to.
*)

PROCEDURE ReplaceChar (s: String; from, to: CHAR) : String ;


(*
   Dup - duplicate a String, s, returning the copy of s.
*)

PROCEDURE Dup (s: String) : String ;


(*
   Add - returns a new String which contains the contents of a and b.
*)

PROCEDURE Add (a, b: String) : String ;


(*
   Equal - returns TRUE if String, a, and, b, are equal.
*)

PROCEDURE Equal (a, b: String) : BOOLEAN ;


(*
   EqualCharStar - returns TRUE if contents of String, s, is
                   the same as the string, a.
*)

PROCEDURE EqualCharStar (s: String; a: ADDRESS) : BOOLEAN ;


(*
   EqualArray - returns TRUE if contents of String, s, is the
                same as the string, a.
*)

PROCEDURE EqualArray (s: String; a: ARRAY OF CHAR) : BOOLEAN ;


(*
   Mult - returns a new string which is n concatenations of String, s.
          If n<=0 then an empty string is returned.
*)

PROCEDURE Mult (s: String; n: CARDINAL) : String ;


(*
   Slice - returns a new string which contains the elements
           low..high-1

           strings start at element 0
           Slice(s, 0, 2)  will return elements 0, 1 but not 2
           Slice(s, 1, 3)  will return elements 1, 2 but not 3
           Slice(s, 2, 0)  will return elements 2..max
           Slice(s, 3, -1) will return elements 3..max-1
           Slice(s, 4, -2) will return elements 4..max-2
*)

PROCEDURE Slice (s: String; low, high: INTEGER) : String ;


(*
   Index - returns the indice of the first occurance of, ch, in
           String, s. -1 is returned if, ch, does not exist.
           The search starts at position, o.
*)

PROCEDURE Index (s: String; ch: CHAR; o: CARDINAL) : INTEGER ;


(*
   RIndex - returns the indice of the last occurance of, ch,
            in String, s.  The search starts at position, o.
            -1 is returned if ch is not found.  The search
            is performed left to right.
*)

PROCEDURE RIndex (s: String; ch: CHAR; o: CARDINAL) : INTEGER ;


(*
   ReverseIndex - returns the indice of the last occurance of ch
                  in String s.  The search starts at position o
                  and searches from right to left.  The start position
                  may be indexed negatively from the right (-1 is the
                  last index).
                  The return value if ch is found will always be positive.
                  -1 is returned if ch is not found.
*)

PROCEDURE ReverseIndex (s: String; ch: CHAR; o: INTEGER) : INTEGER ;


(*
   RemoveComment - assuming that, comment, is a comment delimiter
                   which indicates anything to its right is a comment
                   then strip off the comment and also any white space
                   on the remaining right hand side.
                   It leaves any white space on the left hand side
                   alone.
*)

PROCEDURE RemoveComment (s: String; comment: CHAR) : String ;


(*
   RemoveWhitePrefix - removes any leading white space from String, s.
                       A new string is returned.
*)

PROCEDURE RemoveWhitePrefix (s: String) : String ;


(*
   RemoveWhitePostfix - removes any leading white space from String, s.
                        A new string is returned.
*)

PROCEDURE RemoveWhitePostfix (s: String) : String ;


(*
   ToUpper - returns string, s, after it has had its lower case
             characters replaced by upper case characters.
             The string, s, is not duplicated.
*)

PROCEDURE ToUpper (s: String) : String ;


(*
   ToLower - returns string, s, after it has had its upper case
             characters replaced by lower case characters.
             The string, s, is not duplicated.
*)

PROCEDURE ToLower (s: String) : String ;


(*
   CopyOut - copies string, s, to a.
*)

PROCEDURE CopyOut (VAR a: ARRAY OF CHAR; s: String) ;


(*
   char - returns the character, ch, at position, i, in String, s.
          As Slice the index can be negative so:

          char(s, 0) will return the first character
          char(s, 1) will return the second character
          char(s, -1) will return the last character
          char(s, -2) will return the penultimate character

          a nul character is returned if the index is out of range.
*)

PROCEDURE char (s: String; i: INTEGER) : CHAR ;


(*
   string - returns the C style char * of String, s.
*)

PROCEDURE string (s: String) : ADDRESS ;


(*
   to easily debug an application using this library one could use
   use the following macro processing defines:

   #define InitString(X) InitStringDB(X, __FILE__, __LINE__)
   #define InitStringCharStar(X) InitStringCharStarDB(X, \
     __FILE__, __LINE__)
   #define InitStringChar(X) InitStringCharDB(X, __FILE__, __LINE__)
   #define Mult(X,Y) MultDB(X, Y, __FILE__, __LINE__)
   #define Dup(X) DupDB(X, __FILE__, __LINE__)
   #define Slice(X,Y,Z) SliceDB(X, Y, Z, __FILE__, __LINE__)

   and then invoke gm2 with the -fcpp flag.
*)

   SliceDB - debug version of Slice.
*)

PROCEDURE SliceDB (s: String; low, high: INTEGER;
                   file: ARRAY OF CHAR; line: CARDINAL) : String ;

(*
   PushAllocation - pushes the current allocation/deallocation lists.
*)

PROCEDURE PushAllocation ;


(*
   PopAllocation - test to see that all strings are deallocated since
                   the last push.  Then it pops to the previous
                   allocation/deallocation lists.

                   If halt is true then the application terminates
                   with an exit code of 1.

                            deallocated, except string e since
                            the last push.
                            Post-condition: it pops to the previous
                            allocation/deallocation lists.

                            If halt is true then the application
                            terminates with an exit code of 1.

                            The string, e, is returned unmodified,
