Get the list of what's missing. Analyze the compilation errors I assume
you're getting, since the HP Ada Predefined Library won't exist on Windows.
If you have a VMS system, the source to the STARLET package is in
ADA$PREDEFINED:*.ADC.
You then have a list of symbols and calls you need to provide somehow.
Go VMS online documentation to see what the calls do;

Right, discover what your Ada program needs from the VMS system calls.
AST's may not be involved...
