DLL is not included, it is loaded/linked/mapped to.
[ In order to include DLL you must extract object files from there, if
that works, then put them into a static library and use that instead. ]
In the scenario when the DLL is to be linked to at build time and loaded
automatically at the application start, you create two library project
files. One is used to build the library itself. Another is to use the
library in another project. See GNAT project files.
Essential for "build" project is
for Library_Interface use (<units-list>);
which determines which Ada units get exported out of the library.
For the "use" project it is
for Externally_Built use "true";
telling that the library is already built.
