c2ada for Win

c2ada for Win

[Anatoly Chernyshev]

Hello, everybody,

I need to convert C header into ads-file to get access to a dll. I tried
to search c2ada
for Windows in the Web, but the only link led me to the Intermetrics
site which seems to be nonexistent any longer. If someone could point me
to the right URL or send me either compilable source or the ready
binary, I would greatly appreciate that.

Thanks in advance,
Anatoly

Go to:

http://www.averstar.com/~stt/bindings/c2ada/c2ada.html

The first link to download you see on the page is broken, the link is:

There is a C to Ada bindings program that is in *.EXE format, at this
location:

http://members.tripod.com/vagul/
http://members.tripod.com/vagul/cbind4win32.zip

   (Site of D. Anisimkov. Cbfe.exe is 334,941 bytes in size.)

A command like this can be used, when creating Ada 95 bindings from C
headers:

   CBFE -cs -erc -rrc -ap -C -gnat -95 input.h

C headers can be obtained from http://www.mingw.org/ but cbfe gets
further when references to C headers are commented out.

Also the precompiled cbfe program will print the offsets, in bytes, of
GCC fields of structs (Ada 95 "records"). 

If the translation is from Borland Pascal to Ada 95, then the body of
the PASCAL source be translated to Ada in addition to headers (using
NewP2Ada, P2Ada).

If C++ needs to be converted into Ada, then what can translate C++
into Pascal ?.


NewP2Ada (Pascal2Ada): http://www.mysunrise.ch/users/gdm/gsoft.htm




----

Ps. How can C++ be translated and converted automatically into Ada ?.
