No!
In GNAT the compiler generates assembly code. With one exception that is
"GNATBIND" program. Using the "-C" option, GNATBIND with produce its
binder program in C. But that does very little for what most people want.
A thesis, back in 1991 by Jeffrey Skinner, was in titled "Ada2C: An
ADA-To-C Program Translator" but it seams that today, most "Ada2C"
programs have more to do with homework assignments than actual working
programs.
