In general, a UML class becomes an Ada type.  If the class will have
subclasses, then the Ada type should be a "tagged" type.  The non-static
methods of the class are the primitive operations of the Ada type.
The static methods are the non-primitive operations declared in the
enclosing package.  If all the methods of the class are static,
then you don't need the "type"; just a package will do.
