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).
