Forgive me if this is just an FAQ. Look at IEEE Std 1003.5-1992 (soon to be an ISO standard, too) for the Ada interface to POSIX. The rationale is very good on the design decisions. I wrote a paper for Tri-Ada '90 on my implementation experience for POSIX/Ada, and there'll be a similar presentation at the POSIX/Real-Time conference in Bonn (FRG) November 14. dave -- --The preceeding opinions do not necessarily reflect the opinions of --The MITRE Corporation or its sponsors. -- "A good plan violently executed -NOW- is better than a perfect plan -- next week" George Patton -- "Any damn fool can write a plan.
