Hello,

I have started to make a binding to POSIX 1003.5 under Windows-NT in
Ada95 with GNAT. The binding is build on top of the Win32Ada binding
from Intermetrics.

If I remember somebody have asked (some time ago) if such a binding
existed and if not was thinking to do it. Please contact me as we
could join our effort into this binding.

Some functionality are really hard to implement like

	POSIX_Process_Primitives.Start_Process[_Search]
	POSIX_Process_Primitives.Wait_For_Child_Process

Some functionality are without counterpart under NT :

	POSIX_Signals

If you have idea that could help, please feel free to send
me a mail.

What is done :

	POSIX (not tested)
	POSIX_Files (some part tested)
	POSIX_IO (not tested)
	POSIX_File_Status (some part tested)
	POSIX_Calendar (not tested)
	POSIX_Process_Identification (some part tested)

The error code is not implemented for the moment. 

The binding sources will be freely available.


Pascal.

PS : I'll be out of my office until Monday Jully 15.
