I'm working on a project where I'm converting C++ code to C# manually. I have working knowledge of C# but I've never used C++ before.
What I need to know is how to deal with the header files, since C# does't have anything like that. Say I have buffer.h and buffer.cpp, would I just convert them both and include them in the same buffer.cs file?
Is the C++ header file in any way related to an Ada spec file?

It is possible to implement all of the features of ISO Standard C++ by translation to C, and except for exception handling, it typically results in object code with efficiency comparable to that of the code generated by a conventional C++ compiler.
In C programming, we can convert the value of one data type ( int, float , double , etc.) to another. This process is known as type conversion.
A compiler is a program that convert a source program written in high-level programming language such as C,Java in to machine language.
The distinction between includes ".h files" and source ".cpp files" is only one of convention. The convention is that declaration (functions, classes, etc) are in .h files which are #included in implementation (definition), or .cpp files. For most cases you're fine in collapsing X.h and X.cpp to a single X.cs file.
That said, you still need to take a look at what is going on in each file. A basic understanding of C++ would go a long way here, and something I strongly recommend you acquire before you get too far into your translation.
