I am trying to call an ADA-95 function from a main C program.
Can anybody give a step by step explanation about how to do it?
including how to invoke gcc, gnatbind, gnatlink
Yes, I did look at the GNAT User guide on the section
"Binding for Non-Ada main programs"
and did not have any luck.

Basically what I want to do is:
in Main C program:
result := ada_function();

In an ADa packagge, I would have
function ada_function return integer;
