Than'x everyone for the prompt response.. I was trying the instructions as
dictated in the ug and am stumped by something else right now..
apparently.. after reading the ug.. I realize that I have done this
before.. (duh!)

Anyway, what I've never done is tried to import a CPP DLL into Ada (I
imported an Ada DLL into Ada)

I'm getting a "undefined reference" to the file I'm trying to import...
does anyone know what I did not do..

I've gotten the .def file (using dll2def) and the Exports in there is
something like

?ProcedureExportedName@@YGHXZ

I tried to import

Pragma Import (C, MyProc, "ProcedureExportedName");
and desperately also trying
Pragma Import (C, MyProc, "?Procedure ExportedName@@YGHXZ");

Both to no avail... I've tried using CPP too..

Please advise..

Than'x!

The best direction in which I can point you is to the GNAT User's Guide
sections 25.6, 25.7, and 25.8, viz.:
25.6 Introduction to Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs)
25.7 Using DLLs with GNAT
 25.8 Building DLLs with GNAT
