ABSTRACT:
In compiling source code organized in projects, unqualified name references are bound to program objects by searching namespaces in ascending hierarchical order from a current program unit to a current project. Namespaces within projects directly referenced by the current project are then searched. The search is completed at the first namespace in the search order which contains the matching name. Thus, program objects in projects directly referenced by the current project can be referenced by an unqualified name, without import or export lists of program elements.
