  I haven't found this in any of my books on ADA. Can I have a
procedure retain it's variable value after it returns to it's calling
routine? In C  I can use STATIC in declaring such a variable.

As an alternative is it possible to have a global variable available
 to all the modules and by this I mean available to outside packages.
