DO NOT DO IT. I am at a site that translated PLM to Ada via a software
package thinking it would be cheaper. What a horrible mess that 100k
system turned out to be. Every parameter was passed as a
'System_Address. Strings were constructed using Char'Pos. Arg. Totally
unmaintainable code, even by the developers.
Save yourself a lot of trouble, rewrite the system in the new language.
