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

["Beard, Frank" <beardf@spawar.navy.mil>]

If you're familiar with Windows tools, many, if not most,
use a "project" concept.  With OA, you first create a 
project (using "File/New Project" as SteveD said), then
add files to it using the "Project/Files/Add..." option.
If you are creating a brand new file, use the "File/New File" 
option to create the file.  Once you're to the point where
you want to compile it, you must first save it ("File/Save"),
then add it to your project ("Project/Files/Add..."), and
then you can compile it.

I hope this makes more since.

PS.
Steve, OA SE's are just like OA Professionals, but with limits
on the number of packages, or units per library, etc., and minus
some additional packages and bindings.  The IDE and GUI Builder
work exactly the same.

Ok, so if I type in a package spec and body that he has in the text, I need
to create a project that uses them,  then compile, build and execute the
entire thing?   I don't need to precompile them?

The book indicates that you must compile the specification file, then the
body file before you can use them.

I'll give it a try and get back - thanks for the help!
