project must either have no declaration of attributes Source_Dirs, Source_Files, Languages or Source_List_File, or one of Source_Dirs, Source_Files, or Languages must be declared as empty. If it extends another project, the project it extends must also be a qualified abstract project.

This is the default (implicit) qualifier.

aggregate: for future extension

aggregate library: for future extension

library: a library project must declare both attributes

Library_Name and Library_Dir.
