Re: Child packages named Ada illegal?

[Shark8 <onewingedshark@gmail.com>]

It's probably an issue of visibility. Consider:

with Ada.Calendar.Time;
Procedure Test is
    package Ada is
    end Ada;
    
    Now : Constant Ada.Calendar.Time:= Ada.Calendar.Clock;
Begin
  null;
End Test;

In this case the Now declaration is prevented from being valid because the type, Time, resides in the package Calendar which is a child of Ada... but Ada at that point refers to Test.Ada which has no Calendar child package.

That te following compiles indicates Ada is not reserved:
Procedure Test is
    Now : Constant Ada.Calendar.Time:= Ada.Calendar.Clock;
Begin
    declare
	package Ada is
	end Ada;
	
    begin
	null;
    end;
End Test;
