What about GNAT.Expect?

Pascal.

Thanks, it looks exactly what I need. Just need to use it correctly.
Fortunately there is an example there:
http://www.adacore.com/2008/11/24/gem-54/
Just need to find how pipe the process' output to a string buffer.
An idea ? I guess it is a 1-liner with GNAT.Expect.
Thanks again

I used to do something like this to get a directory listing in Ada 95: Using
GNAT.OS_Lib I spawned cmd and redirected the output to a file, then read the
file from my program. Not nearly as complex as what you're after, but it worked
for my purposes and only took a few minutes to get working.

For same purpose (launching gprbuild and catching the output and error
streams) I used GTK+ bindings.

I considered GNAT.OS_Lib, but dropped that for various reasons. Since GTK+
API are quite tricky when it comes to process spawning, I built thicker
bindings on top. Spawning a process with pipes:

and with text buffers instead of pipes

QProcess class from Qt (and QtAda) can be used for that.
