Ada interface to Jave network socket

Ada interface to Jave network socket

I am doing Software Engineering at university. Currently I am working on
an
elevator control project which require writing Ada code to interface
with Java.
The interface is through a tcp socket connection. The Ada code is to
connect with
a network socket created in Java then pass messages across. Enclosed
sample Java code which creates the socket.  Anyone with some ideas how
this is done
would be appreciated.

You can use Berkeley sockets from Ada. There is a Ada package
for that call AdaSockets.

http://www-inf.enst.fr/ANC/

If the Ada program is the client, and if you are using TCP (not UDP),
simply create a socket() using Java socket address (IP/port), then
call connect() on the socket, then use write() to send data.

for UDP, slightly different calls needs to be used (sendto(), no connection,
see your TCP/IP book for more info).
