3.14. Input-Output

The packages Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Sequential_IO and Ada.Direct_IO require support from the system call interface. When running on the target simulator, the system call interface is supported using the host operating system, and, for example, a call to open a file will open a host file. When the application is running on the target computer, a system call handler may be supplied that supports the calls with an IO system. An example of such a handler is included in the run-time system.

The package Ada.Storage_IO is supported as described in the Ada 95 Reference Manual.
