The comparison is -- in the normal Ada semantic sense of array comparison. The result is -1, -- 0, +1 for Left < Right, Left = Right, Left > Right respectively. This -- function works with 4 byte words if the operands are aligned on 4-byte -- boundaries and long enough. function Compare_Array_U8_Unaligned (Left : System.Address; Right : System.Address; Left_Len : Natural; Right_Len : Natural) return Integer; -- Same functionality as Compare_Array_U8 but always proceeds by bytes. -- Used when the caller knows that the operands are unaligned, or short -- enough that it makes no sense to go by words. end System.Compare_Array_Unsigned_8;
