I will say that I think the intermediate C and Java representations are
brilliant for extending the marketing ability, though I can imagine some
of the battles with hard performance criteria prophets over layers of
abstraction.  My question though, If Ada 95 has such powerful interface
capabilities to other languages, why is translation even a question?
Is the interface between languages more of a concept, not actually been
realized in toolsets?

I am familiar of a great deal of success interfacing Ada 83 code with
Jovial, where the Ada code acts as the executive and the Jovial is the
legacy operations, but this is not accomplished using a commercial
compiler, or hardware platform.  The 'interfacability' is a big
advantage for the sellability for some of my customers, so it would be
nice to know if it is not all that realisitic in the large before a
benefit becomes a blemish if it does not live up to the promises.

Thanks

Tony
