ADA packages for access to PostgreSQL and for web interface

ADA packages for access to PostgreSQL and for web interface

[Jiri Navratil]

Hi,

I'm new to ADA. I would like to write a application, which will
listen on a port and will use http for input and output. The application
will receive via web browser some input and will put back the results as
html page. For the result a SQL command to PostgreSQL will be used.

I will welcome recommendations about reading and packages.

Thank you,
Jiri

check for AWS (Ada Web Server), it could help a lot for the server 
side HTTP handling.

you will find more info here:
http://libre.act-europe.fr/aws/

Personally I'd recommend using stuff inside a web server like Perl or
PHP since these languages have very good integration of both Web and
SQL interfaces. 

However there is Ada Web Framework: http://libre.act-europe.fr/aws/
But I've never used it.

PS It's Ada not ADA.

To connect to Postgres I recommend Pgsql at

    http://www.liacc.up.pt/~maa/files/

For the web part try AWS (Ada Web Server).

To access a data base you could use:

GNADE (it has native bindings to various data bases and also ODBC bindings)

APQ (it has PostgreSQL bindings and a data base independent layer)

If you can rely on an ordinary webserver (i.e. apache) you could
use a BUSH-cgi-Script.

For Web based applications, be sure to have a look at AWS.

http://libre.act-europe.fr/aws

For SQL the best binding around is GNADE.
