In my current project, I am using the GNAT Ada package and interfacing 
(pragma IMPORT) with the C language.  I can do the interfaces well and
send/receive variables, but I am not sure about how the language converts
from ada types (integer, array, access, etc.) to C types (unsigned long,
unsigned long long, pointers, etc.).  Also, what about subtypes and 
enumerated types.  I imagine it looks at the base class in the conversion.

Are there any example programs out there that deal with this problem? If
so, where are they?

Thanks in advance,
