No, not really.  There appears to be very little interest in this
matter.  Ada "purists" will simply tell you to rewrite the code to
take advantage of Ada features, and "integrators" will simply suggest
you link the code in with any new Ada code you're writing.  The latter
approach is generally the more cost-effective one :-)

There are excellent examples at www.adahome.com/Ammo/cpp2ada.html

I personally suggest buying Simon Johnston's "Ada95 for C and C++
programmers" and "Ada As A Second Language" by Norm Cohen.  Those two
books are the most important!

(I hope this was more helpful than Robert's rather acerbic reply)
