Hi! Greetings to All! :-)
  I don't know anything regarding Claw.Sockets or Gnat.sockets, but I 
love a lot AdaSockets that has been helping me enough ! ^_^!!!
  AdaSockets possesses very good characteristics same, as 'Orientation 
to Object' (if you want, you for instance can extend the socket - that 
of the type tagged -), and the use of Stream Types in a simple, 
efficient and powerful way directly through the socket.  AdaSockets does 
allow to Ada programmer to use sockets to the style BSD in platform 
Win32, what is already for me a good miracle.   Practically you will 
have the same source code - relative of course to the sockets: -) - for 
all the platforms win32 and Unix in general, including Linux.  you can 
use in a simple and transparent way, characteristics of the Ada language 
such as Tasking and Objects Protected with AdaSockets without larger 
concerns. another very good characteristic is the speed with that the 
authors implement corrections and new resources, many of the which are 
suggested by your users through the mailing list of the project. The 
license of the AdaSockets is GPL lightly modified, or be you can also 
use AdaSockets in Software proprietary without contaminating your code. 
It's good! It's is free! and you don't need to pay to be heard and nor 
you needs to pay to be taken in consideration in the mailing list of the 
main project.
.
for those that use win32 a link it especially exists with a complete and 
updated subset ready for win32 (there is not need of tools Unix 
for Win32 ). the link is:

       http://vagul.tripod.com         -- search for 'AdaSockets' ;-)


the homepage of main project is:

      http://www.rfc1149.net/devel/adasockets.html.en    -- English
      http://www.rfc1149.net/devel/adasockets.html.fr    -- Francais or
      http://www.rfc1149.net/devel/adasockets

for those that don't know what is a net socket or they would like to 
learn, I found a very good link called  "Beej's Guide to Network 
Programming"  that in spite of using C (as example, to use Task in the 
fork place:-) it is an excellent starting point. :-)

  Well...:-),install adasockets, run the examples and mainly use the 
Christis' Force! Read the sources!^_^!!!!

Affectionate []'s of seven turns, c.h.Daniel Norte de Moraes.^_^!

p.s.:  :-) thank you for understanding my bad English :-)
