Ada certainly does use the concept of include. If it didn't, you wouldn't be able to utilize one package from another. In Ada it is the "with" statement that includes a reference to another packages specification.

To me, the concept of "include" is treating the contents of one file as if they were textually present in another file at the time of compilation. An Ada context clause does not do this.
