7.11 Import Type

An error is triggered when accessing a type declared in a package which was not imported in the current scope.

Place the editor cursor on the error's line and press Ctrl + 1, select the Add ... to import ... from the list of quick fix proposals and press Enter.

A use clause is added before the enclosing element (entity, package, etc.) of the type access.

Note: When the missing type name is provided by multiple packages, all possible imports are proposed.
