33-- sequences of Character and Wide_Character. Wide_Wide_Character values
34-- are also handled, but represented using integer range types defined in
35-- this package, so that this package can be used from applications that
36-- are restricted to Ada 95 compatibility (such as the compiler itself).
37
38-- All the algorithms for encoding and decoding are isolated in this package
39-- and in System.WCh_JIS and should not be duplicated elsewhere. The only
40-- exception to this is that GNAT.Decode_String and GNAT.Encode_String have
41-- their own circuits for UTF-8 conversions, for improved efficiency.

64 -- C is the first character of a sequence of one or more characters which
65 -- represent a wide character sequence. Calling the function In_Char for
66 -- additional characters as required, Char_To_Wide_Char returns the

69 -- sequence for the given encoding method.

71 -- Note on the use of brackets encoding (WCEM_Brackets). The brackets
72 -- encoding method is ambiguous in the context of this function, since
73 -- there is no way to tell if ["1234"] is eight unencoded characters or
74 -- one encoded character. In the context of Ada sources, any sequence
75 -- starting [" must be the start of an encoding (since that sequence is
76 -- not valid in Ada source otherwise). The routines in this package use
77 -- the same approach. If the input string contains the sequence [" then
78 -- this is assumed to be the start of a brackets encoding sequence, and
79 -- if it does not match the syntax, an error is raised.
