This library gather all reusable packages written by Natasha Kerensikova that are too small to fit in a project by themselves.

It contains the following package hierarchy:

• Accumulators: an interface for string accumulator objects and stacks of accumulators
  • String_Accumulator_Linked_Lists: a basic implementation of an accumulator stack using a reference accumulator
• Chunked_Strings: an implementation of unbounded strings backed by non-contiguous fixed-size chunks of memory
• Cron: a simple low-precision service of periodic events
• Getopt_Long: command-line argument processing similar to C getopt_long
• GNAT_HMAC: instances of HMAC using GNAT hash primitives
• HMAC: generic HMAC implementation using a formal hash function
• Indefinite_Holders: simple Ada 2005 implementation of the Ada 2012 container
• References: generic simple reference-counter implementation
• S-expressions: library for dealing with S-expressions
  • Atom_Buffers: dynamic buffer for S-expression atoms
  • Atom_Refs: common reference-counted atoms
  • Dynamic_Interpreters: S-expression interpreter with mutable commands and callbacks
  • Encodings: translators to and from official S-expression encodings
  • File_Readers: objects reading a file to an atom or a S-expression
  • File_Writers: file-backed S-expression printer
  • Generic_Caches: memory container for S-expressions
  • Interpeter_Loop: inner loop of S-expression interpreters, typically used in static interpreters
  • Interpreters: callback-based S-expressions interpreter
  • Lockable: interface for S-expressions descriptors that can be temporarily restricted to a given nesting level
  • Parsers: S-expression descriptor from a byte stream
  • Printers: interface for objects to which S-expressions are written
    • Pretty: human-friendly S-expression pretty printer
      • Config: serialization and deserialization of pretty printer parameters to and from S-expressions
• Static_Hash_Maps: code generator around GNAT Perfect_Hash_Generators to build a static hash map
  • S_Expressions: read S-expression description of static hash map
• Storage_Pools: helper objects with dynamic memory management
• String_Slices: objects hold slices of reference-counted shared strings
  • Slice_Sets: sets of aforementionned slices
• Tests: very simple test framework
  • Text_IO: test output using standard Ada.Text_IO
