Python script that translates Ansi C to Ada. Translates .c and .h files to .adb and .ads files

Usage:

python c2ada.py FILES 

In order to resolve include dependencies, all files must be specified in one call.

Example: python c2ada.py main.c module.c module.h

or you can use find on a code directory:

find . -type f -regex '.*\.\(c\|h\)' -exec python c2ada.py {} + 

The script is based on regular expressions and will not properly parse C according to its specification! It is only a helper script intended to reduce the manual translation effort.

• keeps (and translates) all your comments
• translates C functions to Ada functions or procedures
• translates enum, struct
• preprocessor #define
• numbers: 0b10101010 -> 2#10101010#

• pointers
• Array initialization
• resolving comments between function signature and body
• many other things
