--  This package implements a light expansion which is used in formal
--  verification mode. Instead of a complete expansion of nodes for code
--  generation, this Alfa expansion targets generation of intermediate code
--  for formal verification.

--  Expand_Alfa is called directly by Expander.Expand.

--  Alfa expansion has three main objectives:

--    1. Perform limited expansion to explicit some Ada rules and constructs
--       (translate 'Old and 'Result, replace renamings by renamed, insert
--        conversions, expand actuals in calls to introduce temporaries)

--    2. Facilitate treatment for the formal verification back-end (fully
--       qualify names, set membership)

--    3. Avoid the introduction of low-level code that is difficult to analyze
--       formally, as typically done in the full expansion for high-level
--       constructs (tasking, dispatching)

package Exp_Alfa is
