You're right. It could understand your scripts, you could even make him
to somehow understand compiled Ada code but never a custom serialized
object - without a binding language. And Ada, the language does not
provide it, as far as I'm informed. I'm only learning but the closest
thing I've seen so far is GnatCom. It would be nice if something like
that was built into Ada.
