Hello,
I have all my D packages in the c:\D\libs\ directory.
I added this path to the PropertyPages/Compiler/Additional
Import Paths field.
In the project source file I imported a module from my package
using "import het.utils;"
Also used a function from it.
The syntax highlighter worked good, and the compiler was able
to build main.obj file.
But I can't find the het.utils.obj file nowhere. Also the
linker is unable to link the things in it.
My question is that how can I add an external package the right
way to my project in Visual D?
I'm planning to use that package from other projects too, so I
want to keep it in one place on my HDD.
Thank You in advance!
Importing modules is only for showing the compiler which symbols
are available for you to use. By default, it does not cause them
to be compiled or linked. You should compile the existing package
as a library, then add the library file to the linker settings in
VisualD.
