The ActivAda release note does specify which specific C compiler you can 
interface to. If you are building a DOS program, you need to use the MetaWare
High C/C++ V3.x for DOS. If you are building a Windows (Win32s) program, you
need to use the Microsoft Visual C++ 32-bit edition. Interface to Borland C++
is not supported. Visual C++ 1.5 is a 16-bit compiler and therefore would not
work either.
