It's also worth pointing out to the person asking the question (and casual
observers) that this is not an Ada issue, but a specific compiler issue, so
taking the oft-mentioned advice - RTFM (read the manual).

Assuming you really are a beginner and this is not a pre-April fools joke,
the message you are getting implies that you have created a file such as
"filename.adb" which contains the phrase "package body filename is .....
end filename;". The Ada compiler then assumes the existence of a
corresponding "filename.ads" which contains the phrase "package filename is
.... end filename:". This is called the filename package specification and
should contain the definitions and object declarations you want to export
to the external world (some other package uses your packages objects). A
real simple example follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
$cat junque.ads
package junque is
type doit_type is new integer;
procedure doit(x : in doit_type);
end junque;
$cat junque.adb
package body junque is
procedure doit(x : in doit_type) is
-- local stuff
begin
-- my wonderful code
end doit;
end junque;
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Again, assuming this is not a joke, you might consider getting hold of one
of the many fine books on the Ada language and perusing it. Not lecturing,
just suggesting.

Hehe, no, it wasn't a joke, I'm just learning. Acualy i figured it out,
I simply didn't realise that the files had to be in the same directory
when compiling.
