Re: Package Problem

["Frank J. Lhota" <FrankLhota@rcn.com>]

The problem is with the "with" clause

with large_integer_handler.variable_length_operations;

This clause implies that there is a library unit named
large_integer_handler.variable_length_operations, which is not the case.
Just cut the "with" clause and move the "use" clause to the declarative
part.
