Interfacing Alsys with Borland C++

[oucsboss!oucsace!jgleason@sun.com (John E. Gleason)]

I have a little problem. I am using Alsys 5.1.1 and I am trying to
create a graphical interface for an application I have written. The
problem is that the graphics routines are in C compiled with Borland's
C++ compiler. Well I HAVE READ the manuals and the procedure the manual
describes does not work.
                1. I declare the external procedure
                2. I use pragma INTERFACE ( <language>, <ada proc-name>)
                3. I use pragma INTERFACE_NAME ( <ada-proc-name>,
                                                 <lang-proc-name>)
 The probelm is not the compiling, but the binding !!! I get an Alsys
.OBJ file and a Borland-C .OBJ file. I call the binder after setting my
library, module=C.OBJ, and the search=INTERF.LIB. Well the INTERF>LIB
(the Alsys C-interface library) is not compatible with Borland C++ and I
get the foolowing map file from the linker....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, either I am doing something wrong or Alsys is not compatible with
Borland C++. Whatever the reason, I know there is a way to do it and
someone out there knows the answer.Pleas help!!!


P.S. I've tried not including INTERF.LIB..., including extra
     C-LIB's,....building an assembler-code bridge to call the C program
     NOTHING WORKS.

P.S.S. My co-programmer MBOYER posted mail about this but wasn't
specific in defing the problem. I appreciate the responses from the
people who weren't smart-asses and didn't just say read the manual or
retype the manual's example.... thank you.
