List of strings as an argument of a RCI function?

List of strings as an argument of a RCI function?

[Tomas Hlavaty]

I'm trying to define a RCI function with an output argument of my type
List_Of_Strings. But, there is a problem with the unit categorization,
because all useful string packages (as Ada.Strings.Unbounded) has no
categorization. Could anybody suggest me a solution? Should I define my
own string type? Why have string packages no categorization, e.g.
Remote_Types?

Thaks,

Tomas

You can use Variable_String, from Adalog's components page:

Yes use an access to string type. Then you'll have to provide you're own
read/write rountine to serialize the list and rebuild it at the other side. I
could dig out a simple distributed list of strings implementation if you want.

Pascal.

Could you? Thanks.

I have my own list implementation and it works except with the access to
(String?) type. There might be the problem.

I've sent my distribued string list implementation directly to Tomas. If
somebody else want to have a look let me know.

Pascal.
