I am studying Ada and making progress. The C interface seems straight forwa=
rd enough for functions, strings pointers and such but I am having trouble =
finding any information on how to interface with stucts that contain functi=
ons.

I am not really a programmer and master of neither C or Ada but I don't min=
d writing a little C to initialize a library. I was hoping to then control =
this ADT from Ada.

Is there any documentation on how to do this? Do I need to write a full thi=
n binding to a library and interface each data type and function seperately=
? I am interested in gstreamer right now about there are several C librarie=
s I would like to interface with. At the moment I would like too create a g=
streamer instance and then play, pause and seek an audio recording.

Thanks for reading-Patrick
