I am learning Ada from John Barnes book, Programming in Ada95, 2nd Edition.
Everything I've read that has confused me I've tried out using GNAT compiler
3.13p and then I understood.

However, I have two questions.

1)
If I want to make some child functions/procedures (which I understand is
allowable) rather than a child package, how do I name the file in order to
feed it into GNAT? Do I have to create a separate Specification file for
each procedure/function declaration? And then a separate Body file for each
specified function/procedure??

2)
On page 252 of the book (towards the bottom of the page) he points out
that -

    with P1.P2;    use P1;     use P2;    -- illegal

But

    with P1.P2;    use P1;    use P1.P2;    -- legal

But I have tried this with GNAT and both approaches work! Am I
miinterpreting what he is trying to say??

Thanks
