I have a draft of the "Portable Operating System Environment"
(aka POSIX) from the IEEE P1003 working group, dated 15 November 1985.
I have three questions on this:
1) Is there a more recent version of the document? If so, how
can I get a copy?
2) I understand that a lot of companies signed a letter
expressing support for POSIX at least in theory (I think it
was presented at the last Uniforum?); has anyone gone beyond
that to implementing a conforming interface?
3) Anyone know of work being done on an Ada binding for POSIX?
Thanks for your help,
Chuck Howell

Hi, Does anyone know where I could get information about POSIX? I know it's basic purpose and that's about it. Thanks Denice parrish@NADC.ARPA

Hello! Remember me from Ada class in Washington? How have you been? Written much Ada code? In response to your request for information about POSIX, if you like I can send you a copy of draft 12 of the standard via snail-mail. Let me know if you want it... -- chris +-------------------------------------------------+ | Chris Walters Dept:W94 Rm:H6225 MS:Z665 | | (walters@mitre.arpa) | | The Mitre Corporation | | 7525 Colshire Drive | | McLean, Va 22102 | | (703) 883-6159 "No more jello for me, mom!" | | - Peggy Sue Got Married | +-------------------------------------------------+

I too would like to know more about POSIX. I'm particularly
interested in realtime features, POSIX IEEE P1003.4 (Realtime).

It says POSIX in big letters on the front cover. Also is says IEEE Std 1003.1-1988. Good luck. -- Maurice Suhre suhre@trwrb.dsd.trw.com

It was superseded by 1003.1-1990, which fixes several problems and clarifies many ambiguities in the original 1988 standard. The new version is also an ISO standard (ISO/IEC 9945-1). -- Geoff Clare <gwc@root.co.uk> (Dumb American mailers: ...!uunet!root.co.uk!gwc) UniSoft Limited, London, England.
