Is there a product available that provides a platform-independent
interface to the file system and sockets?  In my particular case I just
need to list the files in a directory and do the standard open, bind,
listen, and read on the socket.

At this time I am just looking to target WinNT and Sun Solaris.  I'm
using Aonix's ObjectAda 7.1.2 on NT and they have an NT-specific
interface that I am using successfully for these purposes.

I'll probably purchase ObjectAda for Sun Solaris, but their tech.
support indicates that the interface provided for Solaris would be
different than for NT, thus my question to this group.  I'd like my code
to be the same on both platforms.

Thanks for any references provided.
