More questions about C wrappers.

Hi

After further reviewing the ads.h (Advantage Database Server Client API) file I am not sure what should be wrapped for Eiffel.  Do I wrap just function calls?  There are a lot of things in the header file and not being a C programmer it is not intuitively obvious what should be wrapped and what does not need to be.

I have no idea how long the process would take but I am beginning to wonder if there might be someone more capable of producing the C wrapper than myself and wonder what that might cost.  If someone was interested in looking at the header file and giving me a rough idea of cost they could contact me via email.

I have done a fair amount of interfacing to "C" code and would probably be
willing to assist for free.  I have no idea of the size of what is involved
so I perhaps would not be interested in working for free.  Your should
contact me privatly instead of using this list.  My email is
[hidden email].
