Ada to C/C++ conversion

Ada to C/C++ conversion

[hornsbyk]

Hello

I'm interested in converting my Ada83 to C/C++.
Our processing systems are reaching end of life,
and our Ada vendor(s) are withdrawing support for
them.  Therefore, we have to replace all hardware
(expensive) or convert from Ada83 to C/C++ and
use the supported compilers for these platforms.
The C/C++ compilers still exist.

Question:
1.  Is there a freeware/shareware Ada83->C/C++
translator available?
2.  If no #1, are there any commercial companies
that supply a tool (metered or otherwise) that do
these conversions?
3.  If not #1 and #2, is there a commercial
company that converts Ada to C/C++ for a fee?

Any information will be useful.

Reply via email to hornsbyk@att.net because I
don't montitor this newsgroup regularly.

The third "therefore" is of course

   Get a new (Ada95) compiler ported to your hardware.

If there is a gcc port to your hardware then it would be
reasonably cheap ( I would think).


Otherwise you could use the Intermetrics Ada-> C compiler.

For interest, what hardware are you talking about here?
