using a web service from Ada

using a web service from Ada

[tonyg]

I want to access a web service from ada (specifically the 5 day
prediction from the weather channel). I am reading trough the
documentation of aws and I would really appreciate an example from the
http client point of view. I've looked at the examples of aws and I'm
a bit overwhelmed. Anyone got an example?

Here is one:

with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO;

with AWS.Client;
with AWS.Response;

procedure HTTP_Request is
begin
   Put_Line (AWS.Response.Message_Body (AWS.Client.Get (URL => "http://
gautiersblog.blogspot.com/")));
end HTTP_Request;

I know its lazy but its a one off job so I'm using the above aws
http_request method and the ada.strings.fix index function to locate
my data. I had some trouble understanding how to use the adaxml
library to do what I wanted.
