Under Win32, you use the FindFirstFile, FindNextFile, and FindClose API
functions to get the information you require.  You will need Win32
documentation to see how to bind and use these functions, and documentation
for your Ada compiler on binding _stdcall functions (all Win32 API calls
use the _stdcall convention).

To get portability, you could write a package with a general specification,
and two bodies (one for Windows, and one for UNIX).
