I have asked several people about this, but
haven't received the answer I need.  I am
using GNAT 3.10p, and know how to use a
pragma to import from another language.

The problem I am having is figuring out
how to actually (physically) link my
object file, from say, an assembler, to
my Ada program.

Do I need to convert my OBJ file to an
Ada library file?  If so, how could I
go about doing that?

For clarity, let me run this down real quick.
I have an assembler object (OBJ) file that I
need to import a few functions from into my
Ada program.  How do I like that object file
with my Ada program?  I know how to import the
functions using "pragma import..."

Also, if anyone has any clues about how to use
interrupts or output data to a port using Ada,
please let me know.

Thanks
