Re: ObjectAda 7.1 Special Edition - how do I use my own packages?

["Axeplyr" <john.fluetter@aixtra.de>]

I'm not even getting that far - all I'm trying to do is create the package.
Compile the body of the package itself.  I've created the .spc file and
compiled it, and it compiled it with no errors.  Then I try to compile the
body of the package.  But I get an error, because it can't see the
specification file.  So I anually carried the specification file to the
library and I still can't compile the body.

Later-
