I am currently working on a project that is doing Ada 95 bindings to C++
and it is a virtual nightmare. Very high learning curve and I still
don't think I got it. Does anyone have a nice "cheat sheet" that
describes a C++ object oriented ism to an Ada 95 way of doing it.
For example:
class A {
int Func (const A& p1);
}
package A is
type Object is tagged null record;
function Func (This : in out Object;
p1 : in Object'Class)
return Integer;
end A;
I have the benefit of going the other way right now (making C++ bindings to
Ada), and I'm using ASIS. It's an absolute delight.
What I map is:
private types
tagged types
variant records
To C++ classes. Maybe you could consider one of those other options,
depending on whether the methods are virtual or not.
