Example Of Sockets Programming In Ada

Example Of Sockets Programming In Ada

[Marin D. Condic]

In the "For What Its Worth" category, I have put a small client/server
application on my web page which illustrates how to use the
Win32.Winsock interface to establish TCP/IP communication. It is a
simple enough application that it may be helpful to you if you have not
used this interface before and would like to learn how to make it work.
You can find a link to the code on:
http://www.mcondic.com/Ada_Programming.html

If you look it over and have some suggestions for improvements, drop me
a line. This example handles only one client and uses blocking calls. I
would like to put together examples that handle multiple clients and
non-blocking calls (possibly using tasks?) so if you have any thoughts
on this e-mail me.

Also, many thanks to Jerry van Dijk for helping me sort out the linking
issues and to Tom Moran for getting my mind right about the WSAStartup
calls.
