Hi,

I wrote a package to be included with my main program, my directory
looks like:

     generic_list.ads  // package def
     generic_list.adb  // package body
     AdaGenericLinkedList.adb // my main program

Now I need all three to be present in the same directory to compile the
main adb file with gnat make. I see some websites suggesting Ada's
compilation method is different than C++'s, as in you don't need all
the package parts to be present in order to compile successfully, but
that doesn't seem to be the case here (if I remove generic_list.ads /
adb compilation fails).

Is there some other compilation style which lets you segment out some
files somehow?

Thanks,
Mark
