Description

Hi Adacore

Do you have any views on a C# binding to libadalang, I appreciate it would be very Microsoft.Windows specific !
things to consider would be

  1. Generation (or lack of) for platforms other than Windows
  2. C# to C/C++ interop , I was thinking of piggybacking of the already available C/C++ Api
  3. Datatype marshaling, This seems to be OK

I've probably missed a few points

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing C/C++ API and the proposed C# to C/C++ interop approach, then assess datatype marshaling and how bindings would be generated across platforms. The issue does not define an implementation scope or acceptance criteria, so completion would require agreement on those points first.
