<<   Reuse of C++ is all but impossible if the code requires any other
compiler, whether for C, Ada, C++, or COBOL.  Note that this is a
compiler issue--using g++ and gcc or even g++ and gnat is
significantly easier than using a different underlying technology.>>

Actually the GNAT interface to C++ is designed to be easily portable to
any C++ compiler. In particular, a major important example of reusing
C++ code from Ada is in the context of SGI Irix systems, with GNAT
interfaced to the SGI C++ compiler.
