If you mean "shared variables between an Ada module and a C++ module",
that's easy, just export a variable from Ada using convention C, and
declare the same variable in C++ using "extern C". Then link the code
together into one executable, and voila.

If you mean "shared memory between one process running Ada code and
another process running C++ code", that's operating system and
compiler dependent.

The single executable approach is much simpler, and much more
portable.
