GNAT/Interfacing C++/Dispatching

[Volkert.Barr@freenet.de (Volkert)]

Hello c.l.a.

Is this true, that dispatching works not across 
languages boundaries when interfacing Ada 95 with C++ 
(using C++ Interface mechanisms of GNAT 3.13p.)?


Example:

C++

class A {

  void f() {
     g();   
  };  

  virtual void g() {
     // do something
  }
}


Ada:

  package A_Type is

    -- corresponds to C++ Class A
    type A is tagged 
      record 
        ...
        Vptr : Interfacing.CPP.Vtable_Ptr;
     end record;

    pragma CPP_Class ...
    pragma CPP_Vtable ...

    procedure f (Self : in A'Class);
    pragma Import(CPP, f, ...);

    procedure g (Self: in A);
    pragma CPP_Virtual (g);
    pragma Import(CPP, ...) 
 
  end A_Type;


  -- extends A
  package B_Type is

    type B is new A with ...

    procedure g (Self : in B); -- redefines g of A.

    ...
    
  end B_Type;

  

  with ...
  procedure Main is
     Object : aliased B;
  begin
                -- ERROR (?)
     f(Object); -- calls c++ method g, 
                -- not the primitive g of the tagged type B.
  end; 


Any hints?
