Hello,
I'm trying to learn Ada95 since a couple of months, coming from C/C++.
I must say that I find Ada much more powerful for writing code that
works without hours of debugging like in C/C++ and that it is much
more readable than the latters.
I use GNAT compiler on Linux and I want to write an Ada program that
has to use the TCP/IP Socket API and maybe other POSIX API.
It's not clear to me which packages I have to use, because I have
heard of a library named Florist that would provide Sockets bindings (
and othe POSIX bindings while I also found a package Ada.Sockets in
GNAT.
My question is about when and why anyone should choose packages
provided by Florist instead than the ones by GNAT.
Thank you all in advance,
Fabio De Francesco.
