pragma Source_Reference

Name

Source_Reference -- 

Synopsis

pragma Source_Reference (INTEGER_Literal, STRING_Literal);

Description

This pragma typically appears as the first line of a source file. integer_literal is the logical line number of the line following the pragma line (for use in error messages and debugging information). string_literal is a static string constant that specifies the file name to be used in error messages and debugging information. This is most notably used for the output of gnatchop with the "-r" switch, to make sure that the original unchopped source file is the one referred to.

The second argument must be a string literal, it cannot be a static string expression other than a string literal. This is because its value is needed for error messages issued by all phases of the compiler.
