The Ada idiom for
  char str[20];
  sprintf(&str, "variable %s = %d", name, x);
would be something like:
declare
  str:constant string := "variable " & name & " =" & integer'image(x);
begin
 ...
Or, since you can return whole strings from functions, you can have
 ... return "variable " & name & " =" & integer'image(x);
