Thanks Gautier,

however, judging from the documentation it seems that Gnavi is pretty dated: I see a lot of 32 bit and 95/NT references.

Also, the foot line on 
http://www.gnavi.org/index.php?Command=classes&Title=The+GNAVI+Project
reads:
(c) 1999-2004

Thus I doubt that Gnavi is still maintained, or do I err?

I am just beginning to dvelve into Ada and am working through Barnes' "Programming in Ada 2012", but target systems are 64 bitters using Win 8.1+, so I need a "modern access". 

How would I access Windows API functions on their own?
