CVBruce,  Your guess was PRETTY DARN good.

when  liboosqlite.so  is placed in /usr/lib   the demo does work.

THANK YOU.

I had not realized that /usr/lib also has some "flat files" in it.
I had thought that   /usr/lib/   was a directory of directories, and therefore did not know what "sub-directory" should/could be used.

Obviously, the  readme  files assumed that all readers would have the same knowledge as the writer of the README file did... ...Since the oosqllite distribution tar files placed the the files in a common "bin" directory,
I assumed that they should be placed in the same system directory.

While I may have been a Senior System Programmer on IBM mainframes, I am only a "user" in LINUX. I have not yet fully grasped the proper usage of the various system libraries in LINUX.   (but am learning...)

(It also doesn't help that every linux distribution does things a little differently,
   rather than everybody following the same standard.)

again, Thank You!

Now I can go on and figure out the particularities of  SQLite under ooRexx.

I'll admit that I am confused at the moment.

I downloaded oosqlite for LINUX from sourceforge.net ooREXX

followed the instructions, and tried to run a sample program.

got the following error message

     57 *-* ::attribute null get class external "LIBRARY oosqlite 
oosql_getNull_atr_cls"
     14 *-* ::requires 'ooSQLite.cls'
REX0098E: Error 98 running /usr/bin/ooSQLite.cls line 57:  Execution error
REX0479E: Error 98.903:  Unable to load library "oosqlite"
bill@wb4alm-07:~$


The download package contains the following files in the BIN directory:

liboosqlite.so
oosqlite3
ooSQLite.cls

These three were copied to /usr/bin   because that is where all of the other 
".cls" files and ooRexx modules are.

is the ooSQLite.cls  wrong,  or is oosqlite3 supposed to be named "oosqlite" ???
