Sure it's not a magic bullet. Even for C code -fdump-ada-spec does at
times generate sub-optimal code. You always have to - at the least -
check the generated code or clean it by hand. I Just wanted to give you
a pointer to some example code that shows how the Ada code for binding
to C++ looks like.
