You could try cbind http://members.tripod.com/vagul/ which has been ported to win32. If the C/C++ or other code you are interested in is on Windows, often (not always) it has a COM interface. I have had a lot better luck with getting Ada bindings from GNATCOM than from any automated header file interface http://www.gnavi.org/gnatcom/ A while ago, someone here claimed to be working on Ada support for SWIG. http://www.swig.org/ I see various hits on google about swig/ada but still have not seen anything real.
