Help needed to write bindings

Help needed to write bindings

[Roger Sheldon]

Has there been any documentation of how to write Ada bindings?

I'm working on a project to write Ada bindings to a library
of C structures and functions.

Thanks

Unfortunately Roger, bindings tend to be compiler dependent, so your best
bet is to read the compiler manuals.

These packages

  Interfaces.C
  Interfaces.C.Strings
  Interfaces.C.Pointers

are described in the RM (I think this is annex M). So bindings should
tend to be compiler independent :)

O.K., so I assumed Roger was refering to Ada 83, not Ada 95, perhaps
incorrectly.
