Thomas Koenig asks
<<I'd like to know how good GNAT is for systems programming under
Unix, especially for networking.
Is there any standard for interfacing with the Berkeley socket
interface and auxiliary routines (inet_ntoa and all the rest)?
Is this standard implemented anywhere?
Or should I just give up, and continue writing in C?>>
The implementation of GLADE uses this interface, so you can look there
for ideas. it is even possible that you should think at a higher level,
and wonder whether you can use the distributed systems annex facilities
directly to replace low level socket mumbling!
