Yes, although depending on the GNAT version you may have to get
bindings for the Microsoft libraries from elsewhere. Someone
will be along on this list shortly giving exact version numbers
(I predict).

I have ObjectAda from Aonix. There are various prices for various
feature sets, some of which count as inexpensive by any measure
and all of which count as inexpensive by at least some folks' measure.
There are other vendors too. If you have access to the World
Wide Web, try www.adahome.com for pointers to everything Ada.
