This raises a few immediate questions. Do you mean ANSI C, or do you mean ANSI C++ (as it evolves)? Must the converter be able to cope with any Ada 95 source text, or could certain things (such as representation clauses, for example) be excused? It would probably be helpful to know about your application in a little more detail, also. Essentially, this is a task which should be quite feasible, as long as a moderately pragmatic approach is taken (IMHO!). Nick.
