Thanks for that, very clear and exactly the way I understood it. It works fine as long as using it in IDE. Distribution seems to be the key problem. And I do not mean distributing to another Gambas developer but to a end user with no littel or no idea on how linux works. So double click the package, provide password and install (like on Debian or Ubuntu). Because when setting Component/Library to Yes (in Project properties) and making an executable for use you can use it just fine from IDE. But when trying to make a installation package of the library (with Component/Library set to Yes) for distribution to end user it becomes a component upon install instead of a library. So I set Component/Library back to No (in Project properties) to make a installation package which installs just fine into /usr/bin (where all my gambas built applications get installed) and can be used during development in IDE as well, if pointing to it in Project -> properties -> Tab Libraries. But then upon distributing an application that uses it library cn not be found and application doesn't install (see other post for details, screens and source) Ideal situation would be that if an application uses a Gambas library it gets packaged along with the application as a dependency. So that only one package would be enough for end users to install the application. Don't know if that is possible as I have no know how on packaging possibilities. Is something like that possible? Because that would make life a hell lot of easier on distribution. Willy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
