--  This is the root of the hierarchy that provides coded character sets.
--  These CCS can be used to convert from any encoding (like Iso/Latin-1)
--  to Unicode.

--  of the ISO 8859-*  character sets

package Unicode.CCS is

   --  Each of the child package shall have two public functions with
   --  the following profile:
   --    function Convert (Char : Unicode_Char) return Unicode_Char
   --  that converts from a code point representing an abstract character in
   --  the specific encoding to the code point for the same character in
   --  Unicode, or reverse

   type Conversion_Function is access
     function (Char : Unicode_Char) return Unicode_Char;

   type Character_Set is record
      To_Unicode : Conversion_Function;

   --  Get the character set associated with a given name
   --  The valid names are given in the packages Unicode.CCS.*.

   Invalid_Code : exception;

   --  is not available in the specific character set. This can never be
   --  raised when converting to Unicode, since it is universal by definition.

   --  unknown.
