If you make an installation package from the library and install it on both systems, it will install in /usr/bin.

Doing above will give same location for all in the .project file and thus an svn update will not break the package. > > Is there a way to exclude changes to the project file from svn > updates?

A note from Gambas Wiki (http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/library): ---- How and where to install a library? When you run a project from the IDE, the libraries it uses are located by using their absolute path, as specified in the 'Libraries' tab of the project property dialog. But when you run the project executable, the libraries it uses then must be located in the same directory. If a library is not found, then it is searched in /bin and /usr/bin as last resort. So, contrary to a component, a library must be packaged exactly like a normal program, so that it is installed in a place where all project can find it. --- A Gambas library installed using a installation package made from library in Gambas IDE is according to me the official Gambas solution. Why? The installation wizard will skip menu entries and such and will always install the library package with .gambas extension in /usr/bin. So the installed library will always be found. > > Ian -- Kind regards, Willy (aka gbWilly) http://gambasshowcase.org/ http://howtogambas.org http://gambos.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
