IEEE 1003.5-1998 pdf download IEEE Standard for Information Technology— POSIX ® Ada Language Interfaces— Part 1: Binding for System Application Program Interface (API)
The following areas are outside the scope of this standard:
(1) User interface (shell) and commands associated with Ada program development.
(2) Ada bindings to the archive/interchange file formats for tar and cpio.
(3) Network protocols.
(4) Graphics and windowing interfaces.
(5) Database management system interfaces.
(6) Object or binary code portability.
(7) System configuration and resource availability.
(8) Interfaces to the Ada runtime system.
When the XTI Detailed Network Interface option and/or the Sockets Detailed Network Inter- face option are supported, then a set of DNI’s (see 2.2.3.26) are also within the scope of this standard. A DNI is intended to provide access to protocol-specific features of the underlying network for highly portable applications that need access to sophisti- cated network features. The DNI’s are based on the SPG4 XTI and 4.4 BSD socket specifications.
The following areas are outside of the scope of the DNI’s:
— Interface to manipulate underlying protocol implementations
— Network management interface
— Interface to manipulate performance-specific features
— Definition for protocol address formats
This standard describes the external characteristics and facilities that are of impor- tance to applications developers, rather than the implementation approaches that may be employed to achieve them. Special emphasis is placed on those facilities and capabilities needed for the broad spectrum of applications. This standard has been defined exclusively at the source code level. The objective is that a Strictly Conforming POSIX.5 Application can be compiled to execute on any conforming implementation, within the portability of the application Ada code itself.
