If T'Class'Input is called on a stream containing data that does not look like it comes from T'Class'Output, it could crash. This patch fixes that bug by making sure it raises an exception.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk 2017-09-08 Bob Duff <d...@adacore.com> * a-tags.adb (Internal_Tag): Unsuppress checks, so we get exceptions instead of crashes. Check for absurdly long strings and empty strings. Empty strings cause trouble because they can have super-null ranges (e.g. 100..10), which causes Ext_Copy to be empty, which causes an array index out of bounds. * s-ststop.adb (Input): Unsuppress checks, so we get exceptions instead of crashes.
