-- insertion for the unit name.
- -- Insertion character { (Left brace: insert literally from names table)
- -- The character { is treated similarly to %, except that the name is

+ -- continuation messsages, except that \\ messages which always start
+ -- a new line end the sequence from the point of view of this rule.
+ -- The idea is that for any use of -gnatj, it will still be the case

-- Insertion character } (Right brace: insert type reference)
-- The character } is replaced by a string describing the type
-- the message unconditional which means that it is output even if it
-- would normally be suppressed. See section above for a description
-- of the cases in which messages are normally suppressed. Note that
- -- warnings are never suppressed, so the use of the ! character in a
- -- warning message is never useful.
+ -- in the case of warnings, the meaning is that the warning should not
+ -- be removed in dead code (that's the only time that the use of !
+ -- has any effect for a warning).
+ --
+ -- Note: the presence of ! is ignored in continuation messages (i.e.
+ -- messages starting with the \ insertion character). The effect of the
+ -- use of ! in a parent message automatically applies to all of its
+ -- continuation messages (since we clearly don't want any case in which
+ -- continuations are separated from the parent message. It is allowable
+ -- to put ! in continuation messages, and the usual style is to include
+ -- it, since it makes it clear that the continuation is part of an
+ -- unconditional message.

-- warning instead of a normal error message, and the text of the
-- message will be preceded by "Warning:" instead of "Error:" in the

-- semantic phase anyway. Messages starting with (style) are also

+ -- Note: the presence of ? is ignored in continuation messages (i.e.

+ -- status of continuations is determined only by the parent message
+ -- which is being continued. It is allowable to put ? in continuation

+ -- clear that the continuation is part of a warning message.

-- Insertion character ` (Backquote: set manual quotation mode)
-- The backquote character always appears in pairs. Each backquote of

+ -- the pair is replaced by a double quote character. In addition, any
-- reserved keywords, or name insertions between these backquotes are
-- not surrounded by the usual automatic double quotes. See the
-- section below on manual quotation mode for further details.
-- messages are treated as a unit. The \ character must be the first
-- character of the message text.
- -- Insertion character | (vertical bar, non-serious error)
+ -- Insertion character \\ (Two backslashes, continuation with new line)
+ -- This differs from \ only in -gnatjnn mode (Error_Message_Line_Length
+ -- set non-zero). This sequence forces a new line to start even when
+ -- continuations are being gathered into a single message.

-- By default, error messages (other than warning messages) are
-- considered to be fatal error messages which prevent expansion or
-- generation of code in the presence of the -gnatQ switch. If the

-- incremented (so expansion is not prevented by such a msg).
+ -- Insertion character ~ (Tilde: insert string)
+ -- Indicates that Error_Msg_String (1 .. Error_Msg_Strlen) is to be
+ -- inserted to replace the ~ character. The string is inserted in the
+ -- literal form it appears, without any action on special characters.
