The ADS file extension is a source code generation file associated with Ada which is a third-generation high-level structured programming and object-oriented programming language. The purpose of the Ada Specification File is to contain source code and declarations from an Ada program. It stores its data using free format text editing which can be edited in any text editor, allowing programmers the flexibility they need to make changes more efficiently. This file will store its contents in plain-text and typically consists of keywords, variables, and operators that are all part of the Adaspecification language.
Compatibility
The ADS files can be opened using the AdaCore GNAT compiler, as well as a variety of other compilers and interpreters. It is mostly used for general purposes along side other programming languages such as C,.NET, Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, assembly as well as PHP. There are several different versions available so making sure you have the correct one installed usually ensures compatibility between the ADS files and the appropriate software.
Similar File Types
Other related file extensions include: .ADA, .ADB, and ADEXE, all also associated with different versions and platforms of the Ada language.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .ADS) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .ADS extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .ADS file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .ADS extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .ADS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .ADS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .ADS file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .ADS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .ADS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .ADS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
