Socket programming

Socket programming

[Gary Foster]

Ok, maybe this is a stupid question, but I'd really like to do some 
socket programming under gnat on my linux box instead of using c/c++.  
Are there any packages to support this?  Is this supported or possible 
under the os/2 emx version, also?  Also, does anyone know of any 
way to bind tk widgets from Ada?  Again, I can do this using C, but I'd 
much prefer a cleaner language.

Any pointers to any FM's to RT would be gratefully appreciated.

Checkout Adatcl7.3 at
  ftp://www.cs.colorado.edu/homes/arcadia/public_html/adatcl.html
  ftp://ftp.cs.colorado.edu/pub/cs/distribs/arcadia/adatcl.tar.Z

I have not tried it but did note the location when I encountered it while
browsing.

I believe the first site should be:

You may want to ask this question by e-mail to Laurent
(pautet@enst.fr) who is very knowledgable about this kind of stuff. 
You can also wait for the distributed annex to be implemented (should
come soon, now). It will do all the low-level communication for you...
