I sort of know it in that I can kinda sort follow well commented C cod= e. Earlier I posted about thick SDL bindings, and another person asked if i= t were possible to utilize C2Ada without knowing C, my question is sort of = in between. Is it possible to write thick bindings from auto-generated C bi= ndings (using GNAT) without really knowing C very well?
