I have an interest in doing some network programming in Ada using UDP. I 
assumed I could use GNAT.Sockets but in reading the specification of 
that package it appears that it only supports TCP. I browsed around the 
various other GNAT packages but I didn't see anything for UDP and now 
I'm wondering what my options are.

I assume Florist probably would work on Unix-like systems and Win32Ada 
would work on Windows systems (haven't looked at them in detail), but I 
was hoping for something cross-platform "out of the box."

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what I see with GNAT.Sockets?
