-- This package provides a thread-safe asynchronous communication facility
-- in the form of mailboxes. Individual mailbox objects are bounded in size
-- to a value specified by their Capacity discriminants.
-- Mailboxes actually hold references to messages, not the message values
-- themselves.
-- Type Mailbox is defined explicitly as a protected type (via derivation
-- from a protected type) so that clients may treat them accordingly (for
-- example, by making conditional/timed entry calls).

with GNAT.Bounded_Buffers;

type Message (<>) is limited private;

package GNAT.Bounded_Mailboxes is

type Mailbox is new Message_Refs.Bounded_Buffer;
-- Type Mailbox has two inherited discriminants:
-- Capacity : Positive;
-- Capacity is the maximum number of Message references
-- possibly contained at any given instant.
-- Ceiling : System.Priority;
-- Users must specify the ceiling priority for the object.
-- If the Real-Time Systems Annex is not in use this value
-- is not important.
-- Protected type Mailbox has the following inherited interface:
-- entry Insert (Item : Message_Reference);
-- Insert Item into the Mailbox. Blocks caller
-- until space is available.
-- entry Remove (Item : out Message_Reference);
-- Remove next available Message_Reference from Mailbox.
-- Blocks caller until a Message_Reference is available.
-- function Empty return Boolean;
-- Returns whether the Mailbox contains any Message_References.
-- Note: State may change immediately after call returns.
-- function Full return Boolean;
-- Returns whether any space remains within the Mailbox.
-- Note: State may change immediately after call returns.
-- function Extent return Natural;
-- Returns the number of Message_Reference values currently held
-- within the Mailbox.
-- Note: State may change immediately after call returns.

-- A convenience value for the Ceiling discriminant
