GPS usually uses project files. A project file can with another - library -
project file. The library compiled with that project file becomes then
available to the program. Have a look at how that works:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/adacl/adacl/Scripts/adacl.gpr?view=markup

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/adacl/adacl/Scripts/Attic/adacl-tests.gpr?rev=1.1.2.2&only_with_tag=Ada_2005&view=markup

You can also add the good old "-I" option - just like in C - to the compiler
options specified inside the project file.
